In my opinion, the Devil's Heir was one of the best books I have read by Author Angel Nyx. This page-turner had me on the edge of my seat mostly with anticipation of what was going to happen next and it just kept getting better and better for me. I was really impressed with the style of writing and intrigued by the whole style and subject manner of the book itself.
The Devil's Heir begins in New Orleans where Kaiya is trying to perfect her powers by trying to create a hurricane as she is trying to perfect her powers. She is interrupted by the High Commander Maddox who brings word that she is summoned by her father the Devil to return to hell. She has a love-hate relationship with Maddox and she has no qualms of telling him off. As she returns home she is greeted by her Mother. As she prepares to meet her father the devil, her maidservant is dismissed as Kaiya wants to be alone to prepare to meet her Father. When she sees her father, she is told she is to marry Maddox that this was decided upon when she was born. Kaiya is beyond pissed off at the fact that her decision to wed whoever she chooses to wed was taken from her and she doesn't take it lightly. She decides to leave hell and that is when the story starts to really become a page turner and the adventure begins. This story will take you through many trials and snares as you continue to read it and it is a must follow all the way through to the end. What will happen to Princes Kaiya and will she ever be able to trust Maddox? Will she fulfill her father's request to marry Maddox and take her place on the throne? These questions and more are answered, and this story will have you awed by the time you've finished it.
This book was gifted to me by Author Angel Nyx and I am very blessed to have the opportunity to read it and tell you all a little about it. This is a 5-Plus Star Read.

Elemental Claim (War of the Myth #1) by Miranda Grant
ELEMENTAL CLAIM is the first book in the War of the Myth series. It starts off action-packed and remains the same throughout. Told from multiple points of view, we gain insights into the human world, the gods, the WALL, elementarists, descendants, angels, hellhounds, you name it and it is probably in here. It starts with a case of mistaken identity, a 'Mission Gemini' if you will. Emma soon realises that she doesn't really know her sister that well after all. Still, her protective instincts as an older sibling remain in full force, so she will do all she can to save her - even if that means allowing Rogan and his friends to kidnap her.

As I said, this book is full of action and doesn't stop. Emma slowly grows into her powers, but there is definitely still room for more. There are other characters in here that I would love to know about. Xeno, for example. She is the angel only a few years from falling. Her health is failing, and her powers waning. And then suddenly, towards the end of the book, she starts healing. What?! I need to know more. What caused her health to degenerate in the first place, and why is she now healing? And will she and Hunter ever get together? Seriously, I need answers!

This was a well-written book, although there were a few spelling errors that jolted me when I read it. Nothing major, just examples like wanning instead of waning, or severe instead of sever. Certainly not enough to spoil the flow of the story, but enough for me to notice. On the whole, this was a brilliant book, with great world-building, and lots of characters to like, love, or loathe. Absolutely recommended by me, and I can't wait to continue with the series.

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

A couple things were frustrating. The Clave sucks. People suck. This isn't the author's fault and it's a good thing that she was able to create situations that struck cords with things happening in the real world, but it just made me mad at the world
Sucked all emotion and life out of me thanks cassie I'm now a shell of my former self
It was so good!!! Some may disagree but each book that Cassie publishes just increases in quality. I can't wait for book 3 and I can't CAN'T wait fOR THE WICKED POWERS LIKE YES LET'S FOCUS ON THREE OF MY ALL TIME FAVES I'M SO READY

Fun Game - Especially With A Sideshow Performer In The Group
I got the Kickstarter for Barker's Row because I have friends who work in sideshow and I knew they would like the theme. The theme of the game is very strong through the game and it was fun to play with these folks.

Without them, the game is a straightforward card drafting and hand management affair where luck can have a strong effect on who wins in the end. If you have good Attraction cards with useful powers then you can make multiple calls and pull way ahead of everyone else. This is, however, true for a good number of games that involves an element of luck.

I really enjoyed playing this game because of the theme and because some of the cards are fun. The art is excellent and the pieces are good quality. The "Rube" meeples all have different people on them so you can fill your grandstand with all kinds of strange people coming to see your shows.
