Book Rating

WICKED FIRE is the third book in the Wicked Magic series, and we continue our story by focusing on Morgaine and Drako. Morgaine was imprisoned within a menhir but it broke and she was free. After being 'oh so nicely' given the instructions to go to America and save Lily, she goes to fight Teran. If that saves Lily, all good. Drako is expelled from Lily's body and into one of his own at long last. Together, he and Morgaine try to get up to speed with the times, as well as learn how to work together. Pretty hard going when Drako knows Morgaine isn't telling him the whole truth.

This was such a brilliant book. I devoured every word. Morgaine and Drako are absolutely perfect for each other, once they get past the mistrust. I love how Lily and her men are interwoven into this story, becoming an integral part of Morgaine's life.

There are other characters that drew me to them though, Yan and Feather to name just two. I'm really, REALLY, hoping that Feather gets her own book. She does have her very own dragon after all! Plus Yan and Omer's story isn't over yet either. Oh, so many stories I still want to read!

I would recommend you read this book after at least reading book two in the series (Wicked Truth). Like I've said, it involves Lily and so I think it would help. Basically though, I recommend this book. It is hot, it is emotional, it is full of action and adventure. Absolutely brilliant!!

I received a review copy for free and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Merissa (12788 KP) rated Wicked Night (A Warrior's Promise #1) in Books

Aug 7, 2020

Wicked Night is the first book in The Warrior's Promise series and we meet Gwen, who is half vampire. Although she comes from a wealthy family, she is not the usual spoilt little rich girl. Wicked is in line to be the next King and has agreed to take Gwen as his charge as a favour to her father (who we don't get to meet in this book.)

Gwen is a good character for the most part. She doesn't allow unnecessary miscommunication to blow out of proportion (too much) but she is a hot-head and allows her anger to run away with her at times. Wicked wants Gwen but doesn't want to act on it, which means he is stupid until he sorts it out!

This is a long book which is good because it allows you to delve into the characters' lives. However, I would say there are parts where this book could be tightened up. Some parts seem repetitive and, for saying it is a long book, Gwen hasn't even gone through her change when the book finishes. It will be interesting to see if things 'speed up' a bit in the next book without losing any of the quality.

This storyline did remind me of the Black Dagger Brotherhood which is not a bad thing, just an observation. All in all, this was a very enjoyable book and I can't wait to see what happens next.

* A copy of this book was provided to me with no requirements for a review. I voluntarily read this book, and the comments here are my honest opinion. *

Movie Favorite

"This is such a markedly wicked satire on the life of a tempted devotee. I can imagine that it was quite scandalous to many people when it debuted in 1965. I prefer Simon of the Desert’s austere qualities over the more outlandish subject matter and bold palette of later Buñuel. It does, however, have one of the strangest and most bombastic plot twists of all the Buñuels. I guarantee that you won’t see it coming, and it will definitely leave you scratching your head."
