Dime Store Magic - Kelley Armstrong

 
Description: ISBN 0553587064 / Author: Kelley Armstrong / Genre: Crime / Thriller / Unlike the Wizard of Oz, the witches in this sexy supernatural romance, including the murdered mother of 23-year-old heroine Paige Winterbourne, are not evil entities inhabiting a fairy tale land. They're ... more
Dime Store Magic - Kelley Armstrong ... an ages-old race of women so frightened by the possibility of exposure and endangerment that they've allowed their magical powers to atrophy. When Paige inherits her mom's mantle as Coven leader, however, she also inherits caretaking responsibility of Savannah Levine, an extremely gifted but rebellious 13-year-old who possesses her dead mother's penchant for dark magic-and for attracting the unwanted attention of darker magical beings (including Savannah's long-lost sorcerer father). The only person Paige can depend on is the one person she doesn't want to associate with: Lucas Cortez, an endearingly nerdy lawyer/sorcerer (It was a sad world when a witch had to rely on a work-starved sorcerer for help). As in Armstrong's debut novel Bitten, this story's special strength lies in its seamless incorporation of the supernatural into the real world. A convincing small-town setting, clever contemporary dialogue, compelling characterizations and a touch of cool humor make the tale's occasional vivid violence palatable and its fantasy elements both gripping and believable.

Men of the Otherworld - Kelley Armstrong

Premium Review Howling at the moon, biting at your ankles. (720 words)

Rating:

Some novels are meant to be devoured, and enjoyed. Kelley Armstrong s novels usually have this effect on me. Pure delicious juicy fiction, with wonderful characters, and fantastic plots. "Men of the Otherworld" is an interesting book. Its based in the same fictional world as Kelley Armstrong s "Women of the Otherworld" book series, but is obviously written from one of the male characters perspectives. Some back story. ~~~~~~~~~~~ "Men of the Otherworld" (released this year) is like an offshoot of Kelley Armstrong s "Women of the Otherworld" series.

Everyone who reads my reviews knows that I have a penchant for all things spooky and supernatural. I esspecially love Kelley Armstrongs "Women of the Otherworld" series, for her fantastic storylines, and strong female characters. I was a little disapointed with her second to last book (Personal Demon), so was a little wary when reading her new release "Living with dead". I neednt have worried. Some backstory. ~~~~~~~~~~~ "Living With the Dead" (released this year) is part of Kelley Armstrongs "Women of the Otherworld" series.

was releasing a new series, in the same vein as her previous horror fiction, but aimed at a younger audience. A bit of background stuff. ~~~ Kelley Armstrong, born in 1968 , is married with three kiddies, and lives in Ontario Canada. She is best known for her "Women of the Otherworld" series (Bitten, Stolen, Dime Store magic, Industrial Magic, Haunted, Broken, No humans involved, Personal demon, Living with the dead).
