    The Devil you know returns in this brand new entry in the over-the-top action series available on...

I have found the series to be lots of fun. It features a spunky heroine who is at home in all the great cities in Europe, is great at her job, and takes the more than occasional murder in stride.

The thing I find most intriguing and also most inviting about this series is the fact that the murder takes place so late in the story that you almost forget that this is supposed to be a murder mystery. Instead, you get to meet all the characters, learn their secrets and affiliations, begin to develop feelings for them. It is very Agatha Christie like and very cool. The great characters added to the brilliant descriptions of European cities, tour stops, and culture makes the reader feel like they are taking part in the tour and gives them a personal stake in discovering whodunnit.

Death of Leprechaun is no exception. Lana has secured a spot on her current tour for dear friends of hers and she is really looking forward to touring Dublin. Unbeknownst to her, almost every member of the tour has a connection to a corrupt reporter who ends up dead. Everyone he has written about or even for has a motive to want him dead, but only Lana’s tour group had access to the murder weapon.

Beyond the search for the murderer, I have to admit my favorite part of this book is when Dottie and later Lana hang a lantern on the fact that guests in Lana’s tours always seem to turn up dead. Though I will give kudos for the switch up here in that the tour group is still suspect, but the victim, is an outsider.

Readers who enjoy travel fiction, epic character development, and clever mysteries will enjoy this series.

Viper :The Prophecy (Odins Wolves MC 2)
By Candi Fox
⭐️⭐️⭐️

Gaia. the mother of all created a werewolf shifter class to serve as guardians. To avoid war, Gaia gifted those that answered the call to Odin, who infused the warriors with immortality creating a class of demigods who fight for justice.
20 years ago, the world found out that humans were not the only Earth dwellers. Now Dark Fae and Shifters live in the light.
Logan Haagan: Viper, Viking demigod, and retired Dallas police officer will join his brothers in White Horse, OK as part of the OWMC who will work to exact justice when the law can’t. Before leaving Dallas, Viper sees Lady Death fight in an underground ring. The fight has mafia ties and ruthlessly pits all manner of dark fae creatures often encouraging the death of the loser.
Billie, Lady Death has been fighting for the Tromlui capo, Cayum since she was a teenager. She becomes a champion of the ring and wants nothing more than to win her contract back and help her friend who is being threatened. Viper and Synne, a dark fae, work to get her released, but Cayum is not easily discouraged and will stop at nothing to keep Billie right where he wants her.
Viper and Billie are sent to New Orleans to uncover a curse, unearth an ancient vampire relic, and discover an age-old prophecy that will change everything...
Don’t miss this epic tale of myths, justice, and prophecy.

I did enjoy this one but think I was expecting to feel the same as I did about book 1 and I didn’t. The world building is really good with complex characters and storylines. Loved catching up with Odins wolves and finding other creatures especially loving Deaths identity . Also a gator shifter that’s a first for me too!

I have a confession to make. I had Faithbreaker drop on to my kindle the day it was released, and I actually had it from NetGalley before then. But I couldn’t read it. I’d built it up so much in my head, that I was really worried that it wouldn’t end the way I wanted it to. I also just didn’t want it to end.
After Sunbringer, there was only one way that Faithbreaker was going to go: full out war. The battle scenes are epic. It’s the relationships that are the most special part of the series for me though. I feel we’ve really got to know and love the main characters in this series

Inara was reunited with her mother in Sunbringer, and she leaves on her mothers ship to try and drum up some support from other countries. Inara has a lot to learn about her mother (and vice versa) after their separation and her mothers previous life. And Skediketh - we all need a Skediketh, don’t we! Our own little God who looks after us, keeps us safe to the best of his abilities, and loves us.

Kissen has joined Inara and her mother on their journey in order to hopefully reunite with her family. But she is also left with the decision of what and who to support - her own interests or those of the greater good.

Elo has stayed with Arren to help protect the kingdom. This was a bit of a shock after everything that happened prior to Godkiller and during Sunbringer, but Elo is a man of his word and feels some loyalty to his King and friend.

I’ve loved this series, I could imagine myself there in the thick of the action, and I loved the main characters - I’ll miss them! I’ve managed to make myself feel somewhat better by pre-ordering Hannah Kaners next book: A Snake Among Swans. Now there’s something to look forward to!
