Saint Code: The Lost (Saint Code Book 1) by Megan Mackie – Review by Angela Hayes

Saint Code: Lost: Book Four of the Lucky Devil SeriesSaint Code: Lost: Book Four of the Lucky Devil Series by Megan Mackie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

Saint Code: The Lost is the first book in the Saint Code series and the fourth book in The Lucky Devil Series by Megan Mackie. I absolutely adore this brilliant series! I developed my addiction to Megan Mackie’s stories back in the first book in The Lucky Devil series and have been eagerly anticipating each new release. I am kicking myself that this book slipped under my radar, and it has taken me so long to notice and read it.
This story doesn’t continue the thread that began in ‘Finder of the Lucky Devil’, but seems to predate it. Instead we follow St. Augustina the cyber-spy as she (along with St. Benedict) takes on a new job after being hired by the very mysterious Orange Lady for what seems to be a routine, if not dangerous, case. But Augustina quickly discovers that this is anything but typical. Things get complicated, and deadly. There seems to be a target on her back- so who is out to get her? Get set for an exciting adventure to find out all the riveting details.
The storyline is spellbinding and full of all the intricate details and incredible world building I have come to expect from Ms. Mackie. This is a fantastic urban fantasy with cyberpunk/neon-dystopia and paranormal elements. We are cast into a world where magic and technology combine with fascinating results. The story is full of action, adventure, suspense, some mystery, drama, tension, intrigue, danger, secrets, emotion, and so much more.
Ms. Mackie has delivered a rich, vibrant and vividly detailed story set in a cleverly constructed and interesting world. Her world building on a masterful level. The characters are truly brilliant- so well-crafted and wonderfully developed. I loved that we get a different perspective into this fascinating ‘world’. Giving us a lot of backstory and also a better understanding of how the Saints are ‘made’.
Can not wait for more!
Brilliant!!!

Thank you, Megan Mackie!

Spring’s Calling: A Seasons of Magic Urban Fantasy Novel by Sarah Biglow – Review by Kerry Carr

Spring's Calling (Seasons of Magic, #1)Spring’s Calling by Sarah Biglow
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was an amazing adventure containing two of my favourite things, murders and paranormal.

Erzi is a newly appointed detective who’s job become a lot harder when she is faced with people being murdered. There seems to be no connection between the victims but Erzi can sense dark magic and feels that is the connection.
However she can’t voice this to her colleagues as magic and being able to do magic is unheard of by normal humans.

But Ezri isn’t a normal human. She is a witch and the last in the bloodline of Harrow witches. Not only does she have to deal with her job, she also has the pressure of knowing that she is the saviour who needs to defeat the dark magic that is rising.

Add all this stress her need to find out the truth of what happened and why her mum was murdered and this story is gripping and compelling.

Can she stay strong enough to find out who is committing these murders? Can she defeat the dark forces? And who can she trust? Her magical family who deceived her over her mother’s death or her police family who don’t know her secrets.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Spring’s Calling by Sarah Biglow is the first book in A Seasons of Magic Urban Fantasy Novel. If the rest of the series is as good as this first book, I am in for a great reading adventure. This book has action, adventure, fantasy, and more which kept me reading nonstop until I finished. The main character Ezri Trenton is a Boston Police Detective and kin to witches from the Salem witch trials. She is a great character and I really enjoyed her story in this book. I do not want to give anything away, but if you like fantasy set in the current day with adventure this is for you. I look forward to reading more from this series as well as this author in the future.

Love the Way You Dance by Allison M. Boot. This story was sweet and I enjoyed every minute of it. This isn’t just a good book with a sweet story it’s also a bit inspirational. Kara is a wonderful character that any aged person would like. Each character is Easy to connect with and they definitely draw you completely into their world and I couldn’t stop until the very last page. It’s a well written and is a bit of a faster pace with lots going on. But the author does a wonderful job of writing it all without overwhelming the readers. It’s characters and wonderful and you won’t be forgetting them anytime soon after you finish. Four stars and highly recommended.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I must say I am so excited for this series to unfold! Spring’s Calling in the first book in a long line to be expected in the series by Sarah Biglow. I was sure I would love this one when I found out it was all about a modern witch from the blurb, and I was never disappointed. I loved reading every moment of Ezri’s story and I can’t wait to get my hands on the next novel in the series.

Ezri Trenton is our main gal like I mentioned above. She is a direct descendent of the Salem Witches and is well aware of it. She is set to be the one to [protect the prophecy etc. but she is haunted by the death of her mother and the community’s lack of care and justice. She is determined to find the killer herself and in the process finds herself joining the local police force. The newest case that is plaguing her will give her magic and herself some serious grief. I love the drama and mystery that is well woven throughout this read, but the magical feel that you read is almost as if I am enjoying an adult fairy tale. I can’t wait to see what else is in store for this series but I am for sure along for the whole ride!

Love the Way You DanceLove the Way You Dance by Allison M Boot
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Love the Way You Dance is the charming sequel to Allison M. Boot’s Just the Way You Are. Where the previous book focuses on Misty, this book’s protagonist is Kara.
Kara is a young girl who, after worrying that her disabilities would mean she would never find a family, was adopted by none other than the King and Queen of Starrycrest. Now a princess, Kara has plenty to worry about including whether she’ll nail an upcoming dance performance, and whether the Queen’s pregnancy is threatening Kara’s place in the family.
The world Boot has created is fun and exciting. In a fantasy land, anything goes and Boot has certainly had fun with this! Kara has access to all the delicious food a person can dream of (thanks, in part, to the friendly and talented chef Tony). She has a super wheelchair designed especially to enhance a dancer’s performance, and excellent instruction from pink-haired dance teacher Stella. There’s a cinema in the palace with a fairly comprehensive collection of Rom-Coms. And also trolls, which will grant wishes but always with an aim to furthering their quest to wreak havoc on Starrycrest.
This is a fun book, suitable for YA and teen readers (but also very enjoyable for adults!). It addresses emotional topics, including disability and foster care, but the fun and vibrant setting keeps the tone light and friendly. For me, this is a five-star book. I’m enjoying the series, and hope there’s more to come! (perhaps a book focusing on Tyler? Or a chance to revisit Kara as a young adult?).

This is a good story. At times I did have a hard time connecting with the main character but others I really enjoyed her. I enjoyed following her around on her job and how she is trying to figure out the scenes. I like the characters she works with and those that she meets along her journey. Granted they are not all good some are evil. But they all serve a purpose.

The writing is good and the story engaging. There is a lot of action and magic mixed together. This is a good urban fantasy read.

I give Spring’s Calling: (A Seasons of Magic Urban Fantasy Novel) by Sarah Biglow, 5 stars.

Urban Fantasy is my favorite genre so I was really looking forward to this book. I didn’t recall reading this author before, so I had no idea what to expect. The beginning of it was interesting, but I want more. I wanted to see Ezri have people on her side to help her. You can see that she has depended on just herself for so long and everyone needs at least one person they can go to. When more people got involved in helping her and she started letting those people in, that’s when the book went to phenomenal. Not only doe she have to find the bad guy, she has to be the savior to the magical world.

This book has just what you want in an Urban Fantasy book — a strong female lead, magic, suspense, laughter, tears, love, heartbreak; and it is all woven into a story that pulls you in from the very beginning and you cannot stop until you are finished. I was so ready to read the next book, but I have to wait because it’s not out yet! That’s ok, this book is so good, I will not forget this characters any time soon.

If you are a of urban fantasy, this book is for you.

I loved this story, Kara was an awesome character and the adventure and fantasy aspects of this book had me hooked. I love the lessons involved in this story that anyone that doesn’t think the most of themselves could learn from.

This is not my first book by this author and absolutely will not be my last. It’s nice to take a break sometimes from the heavier books I read to let myself into another world, it was like being in a fairy tale land and you get really comfortable in all that is Starrycrest.

I have a couple granddaughters that I’m going to give this book to, as well as the first 2 I’ve read. I truly believe they will love everything about these fantasies and walk away with some truly helpful thoughts to carry through their teenage years and beyond.

Loved it and can’t wait for more from this author.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

Spring’s Calling is the first book in the Season’s of Magic series by Sarah Biglow. This is an action-packed urban fantasy, interwoven with a crime drama, mystery, suspense, magic, witches, prophecy, sinister forces, and a pending apocalypse. The fate of the world hangs in the balance and it is a bit of a race against time to unravel everything, whilst also embracing a destiny that was foretold in a prophecy centuries ago.
Ezri Trenton is the subject of that prophecy- and as the last remaining descendant in a long line of witches, the responsibility falls on her to save the day. But, Ezri is haunted by the murder of her mother ten years earlier. She left the magical community, feeling betrayed by their lack of action after her mother’s death. So, she decided to hunt down the killer herself, and has since joined the police force a stepping stone in that direction. She loves her job and takes it seriously. But hiding her ‘abilities’ is going to become a little more difficult, especially when there’s a phantom serial killer to track down. Keeping her magical abilities on the down-low just got a whole lot more difficult. How will Ezri juggle the advancing prophecy, saving the day, as well as hunting down a serial killer with paranormal abilities? Well, this book is well worth the read to discover just how everything plays out!
Looking forward to more in the ‘Seasons of Magic’ series!

Thank you, Sarah Biglow!

Grace’s Ghosts is a book suitable for children as young as 9 to 12 years of age. I am not ashamed to say, at 31 years of age, I loved it.
From the very first page I was intrigued and drawn into the storyline. I can honestly way, I don’t recall reading a story like this in the past. It was fast paced, exciting and unique. I feel as though Grace was a character kids could relate to or feel empathy towards. I can’t say enough about Grace’s Ghosts but I will stop here as to not spoil anything. Regardless of age, if you’re looking for a short, fun read, I recommend this 5 star book.

This story follows Grace who’s able to see ghosts, and have conversations with them. You get to meet her family and the people that go to her school. Every one who’s important is so deeply created, I either loved or despised them – whichever emotion Stephanie wanted me to feel. I hope there’s more of Grace’s story because I can’t wait for more!

I really enjoyed reading this book. Ezri is a newly promoted detective and a witch. Her partner is human but the serial killer they are after is killing with magic. Trying to solve the case and hide her powers gets her into some awkward situations. A major event is supposed to happen on the equinox and Ezri is destined to save the world. She knows the murders is connected to that same event but she has to prove it.

This is an interesting fantasy filled with magic, drama and crime. The author did a good job weaving the three to create a story that will keep you captivated until the end. This is definitely worth reading.

The Labyrinthine Journey by Luciana Cavallaro is the second book in the Servant of the Gods series. I did read this as a stand-alone book although I would recommend reading the previous book first to get a better understanding and build up.
The book was very well written. It was so easy to imagine the scenes and the get a feel for the characters. The author has created an interesting and diverse world that feels so accurate for the time it it set in.
I really enjoyed reading about Evan. He is such a relatable and engaging character. You automatically get behind him and want him to find a way back home.
This is the first book I have read by this author but it certainly won’t be the last.

Grace’s Ghosts by Stephenie Wilson Peterson is a very well spun story. Some books you read for the history, some you read for love, and some you read just cause you like a good story. This book is that good story. I could totally identify with Grace, because I have been that odd man out. Eccentricity is rarely loved by the rest of the world. This is a great story for young people but adults will love it too. I know I did! I hope we see Grace and her friends in another story, these characters are way to good to only travel with once.

I have to tell you Megan Mackie has become one of my favorite authors. Saint Code: The Lost (Saint Code Book 1) was a fantastic story. Characters that we were introduced to in Finder of the Lucky Devil make an appearance in this excellent story. With the back story. And with subtle mystery that builds anticipation for more. At first it took me a minute or two to figure out what was going on with St. Augustina, but when I did the rest of the book was a page turner for me. The characters in this story are over the top with personality, and the backdrop, the world the story takes place in is wonderfully bizarre. A lot of books I just read and pass along but Megan Mackie’s books are keepers for me.

All your favorite mythical creatures are here and maybe even some you’ve never heard of, with a lot of the back story on these characters. Gods and historical people alike. I love how the author intertwines some of our own cultural discord into the story. The characters are interesting and intriguing, the world is well described, you can almost taste the salt in the sea. An all-around wonderful story to cuddle up to, well worth your read.
