Kate and Curran are preparing for a meltdown

Roland is not happy they wed without his guidance, you know how false gods are.

By John Irvin

Things are really heating up between Roland and Kate and Curran knows this. Kate is curious as to what Curran is hiding from her, but he won’t tell her.

I was curious as well.

Everything in Magic Binds shows the underlying plot has thickened so much there’s no way it can go on much longer.

I knew something was happening.

I knew this ninth installment, coming before the finale, would exceed the intensity of the previous books. Things are at the cusp of breaking loose.

The climax is about to arrive and I can feel it.

If you haven’t been collecting these books, why not? It took me a few years to finally decide to try this series out and I’m telling you, I wish I had started earlier.

Such an amazing story! I really want you to join my fangirling and meet Kate and Curran and all the rest!

Here’s the book you need:

MAGIC BINDS by ILONA ANDREWS.

          If you’re still on the edge of decision, here’s the brief description from Amazon.

            “Kate and the former Beast Lord Curran Lennart are finally making their relationship official. But there are some steep obstacles standing in the way of their walk to the altar.
 
Kate’s father, Roland, has kidnapped the demigod Saiman and is slowly bleeding him dry in a never-ending bid for power. A Witch Oracle has predicted that if Kate marries the man she loves, Atlanta will burn and she will lose him forever. And the only person Kate can ask for help is long dead.
 
The odds are impossible. The future is grim.  But Kate Daniels has never been one to play by the rules…”

When Neptune is Poseidon

So, we all know Percy Jackson and from the first book in this series, we know Jason Grace

By John Irvin

The sequel in this spin-off series from the Percy Jackson world and the Olympians brings us the Roman versions of the gods and goddesses.

Jason Grace is the co-praetor to Camp Jupiter.

He is also a demigod like Percy.

Y’all when I started this series, I didn’t expect it to be as great as Percy Jackson and the Olympians! But the first book pulled me in fast.

This second book, The Son of Neptune, did the same exact thing.

Things are getting weirder and weirder. They’re also getting interesting and sit-on-the-edge-of-your-seat fantastic!

You really want to collect this sequel series and add it to your bookshelf right next to the first series.

The kids have grown and most are ending their high school days.

Don’t miss out on a thing.

Here’s the book you need:

THE SON OF NEPTUNE by RICK RIORDAN.

          If you’re still on the edge of decision, here’s the brief description from Amazon.

            “Percy is confused. When he awoke after his long sleep, he didn’t know much more than his name. His brain-fuzz is lingering, even after the wolf Lupa told him he is a demigod and trained him to fight. Somehow Percy managed to make it to the camp for half-bloods, despite the fact that he had to continually kill monsters that, annoyingly, would not stay dead. But the camp doesn’t ring any bells with him.

Hazel is supposed to be dead. When she lived before, she didn’t do a very good job of it. When the Voice took over her mother and commanded Hazel to use her “gift” for an evil purpose, Hazel couldn’t say no. Now, because of her mistake, the future of the world is at risk.

Frank is a klutz. His grandmother claims he is descended from ancient heroes, but he doesn’t even know who his father is. He keeps hoping Apollo will claim him, because the only thing he is good at is archery. His big and bulky physique makes him feel like a clumsy ox, especially in front of Hazel, his closest friend at camp. He trusts her completely-enough, even, to share the secret he holds close to his heart.

Beginning at the “other” camp for half-bloods and extending as far north as the land beyond the gods, this breathtaking second installment in the Heroes of Olympus series introduces new demigods, revives fearsome monsters, and features other remarkable creatures, all of whom are destined to play a part in the most important quest of all: the Prophecy of Seven.”

Wait…did Kate and Curran break up?

Kate left the Pack, she’s no longer the Beast Lord’s Mate.

By John Irvin

With so much infighting and subtle plotting, Kate Daniels has had enough of the Pack life in Magic Shifts.

Former Beast Lord Curran loves her more than his Pack.

With the plot twist that takes my favourite book couple down a new pathway in life, I was excited to see what happened next.

I mean, Roland is still hanging out nearby the Atlanta city limits.

As we grow closer to the final book in this fantastic urban fantasy series, the tension is steadily mounting. And you love them for it!

I definitely hope you haven’t been avoiding your chance to add these stupendous books to your bookshelves.

I think, this year, I’m going to re-read the series for fun. I miss Kate and Curran. Not to mention, they’re quick reads and my reading goal for 2021 is 62 books, so yeah, having read them already, that’ll help.

That will also knock ten books off my goal!

I’ve read one book these first two weeks of the year and almost finished a second. I’ve got a ways to go.

Let’s just say, last year, I read 31 and I wanted to double that!

By the way, here’s the book you need:

MAGIC SHIFTS by ILONA ANDREWS.

          If you’re still on the edge of decision, here’s the brief description from Amazon.

          “Magic is coming and going in waves in post-Shift Atlanta—and each crest leaves danger in its wake in this gripping novel in the #1 New York Times bestselling Kate Daniels series.
 
After breaking from life with the Pack, mercenary Kate Daniels and her mate—former Beast Lord Curran Lennart—are adjusting to a very different pace. While they’re thrilled to escape all the infighting, Kate and Curran know that separating from the Pack completely is a process that will take time.
 
But when they learn that their friend Eduardo has gone missing, Kate and Curran shift their focus to investigate his disappearance. As they dig further into the merc’s business, they discover that the Mercenary Guild has gone to hell and that Eduardo’s recent assignments are connected in the most sinister way…
 
An ancient enemy has arisen, and Kate and Curran are the only ones who can stop it—before it takes their city apart piece by piece.”

The Lion speaks and a Kingdom is created

Another fascinating series I was late to read, but still recommend no matter how old you are.

By John Irvin

I saw the movies when I was a child, but I never got around to reading the books. Again, being raised in Eastern Europe, I relied on my Granny sending my brothers and me Hardy Boys adventures and sending my Mom romance novels.

Soon after I graduated college, I got my hands on the complete collection of Chronicles of Narnia, which is printed as one big book.

It is now a part of my personal library.

Even as an adult, I enjoyed the fantasy and the adventures of the Pevensie children and the rest.

Weaving a tale of another world, CS Lewis, captivates the reader with a story of creation by Aslan the Lion. Narnia is his creation. Then the rest of the tales are the plot by evil to overtake the world and eventually the victory of Aslan at the Last Battle.

If you want a light-hearted story of in-depth tales of Earthling adventures who visit strange new lands through inter-dimensional portals, this is a series made for you.

Here’s the complete collection in one book:

CHRONICLES OF NARNIA by CS LEWIS.

          If you’re still on the edge of decision, here’s the brief description from Amazon.

          “An impressive hardcover volume containing all seven books in the classic fantasy series The Chronicles of Narnia, graced by black-and-white chapter opening illustrations and featuring an essay by C. S. Lewis on writing. This volume also contains C. S. Lewis’s essay “On Three Ways of Writing for Children.”

Fantastic creatures, heroic deeds, epic battles in the war between good and evil, and unforgettable adventures come together in this world where magic meets reality, which has been enchanting readers of all ages for over sixty years. The Chronicles of Narnia has transcended the fantasy genre to become a part of the canon of classic literature.

This edition presents all seven books—The Magician’s NephewThe Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe; The Horse and His BoyPrince CaspianThe Voyage of the Dawn TreaderThe Silver Chair; and The Last Battle—unabridged. The books appear according to C. S. Lewis’s preferred order and each chapter features a chapter opening illustration by the original artist, Pauline Baynes.”

This is the Seventh Book in the Kate Daniels Series

Is it just me, or is Kate always in the middle of every fight that has to do with Atlanta?

By John Irvin

          Yes, I’m promoting Book 7, Magic Breaks, in the Kate Daniels series by Ilona Andrews. I’ve got nine more days to go of this 90-Day Author’s Assault, so I’m finishing up my series.

          If you haven’t collected the other books in this urban fantasy series, what’s wrong with you?

          If it’s finances, I understand.

          If it’s priorities, I don’t understand. Books should be a priority! Too much time on Facebook or Instagram or Snapchat will rot your brain—believe me!

          So much negativity, you’re just breeding hate.

          Fiction reading expands your mind and it’s been scientifically proven people who read fiction are more open-minded.

          Why wouldn’t you join in this journey of the imagination and meet my favorite characters?

          Don’t you want to meet the amazing Kate Daniels? Don’t you want to laugh at her dry humor and sarcasm? Don’t you want to root for her and Curran as they struggle to develop a romantic relationship in Post-Shift Magic-and-Tech-embattled Atlanta?

          Don’t you want to live another life besides this one?

And here is Book 7:

MAGIC BREAKS by ILONA ANDREWS.

          If you’re still on the edge of decision, here’s the brief description from Amazon.

          “No matter how much the paranormal politics of Atlanta change, one thing always remains the same in this #1 New York Times bestselling series: if there’s trouble, Kate Daniels will be in the middle of it…

As the mate of the Beast Lord, Curran, former mercenary Kate Daniels has more responsibilities than it seems possible to juggle. Not only is she still struggling to keep her investigative business afloat, but she must now deal with the affairs of the Pack, including preparing her people for attack from Roland, a cruel, ancient being with godlike powers.


As Roland’s long shadow looms ever nearer, Kate is called to attend a gathering of leaders from Atlanta’s supernatural factions. When one of the Masters of the Dead is found murdered by a shapeshifter, Kate is given less than twenty-four hours to hunt down the killer. And this time, if she fails, she’ll find herself embroiled in a war that could destroy everything she holds dear…”

Grant Burrows is back…or is he?

After the cliffhanger of the second book, I was lost until I could finally read this dark thriller finale

By John Irvin

As I’m nearing the end of this 90-Day Author’s Assault, I’m finishing up with promoting the finales of a lot of my favorite series.

This Dominion trilogy by Robin Parrish is no different. The science fiction thriller triple threat will have you on the edge of your seat and up late at night … at least, it did that to me.

The finale is called Merciless and it takes an even darker turn.

After having become a totally new person in the first book, then getting used to that new person in the second, has he become another new person?

When the thing crawled up out of the pit, I couldn’t read fast enough.

Let’s just say, I was dying to actually be there with his friends to help them figure out a way to save Grant and the world.

Without saying anything else before I spoil it, I want you to add this book to your collection. If you haven’t even ordered the first two, here are the links so you can go grab them.

I really really don’t want you to miss out—I added the extra really for emphasis. Please, do yourself a favor and add this to bookshelf!

MERCILESS by ROBIN PARRISH.

          If you’re still on the edge of decision, here’s the brief description from Amazon.

          “Evil has infiltrated our world. His name is Oblivion and his touch is death. He devastates the planet, turning it into a twisted, barren world. A dark world. And Grant Borrows, the one man powerful enough to oppose him, is dead.

As Grant’s remaining friends learn the ultimate truth behind the events that shaped their lives, they secretly gather for one last battle. This showdown between good and evil will prove to every soul on earth that in the bitterest twilight, all is not lost. The world must never forget that even when life is merciless, it is not hopeless.”
