Kate Daniels, Book 9
Synopsis: Mercenary Kate Daniels knows all too well that magic in post-Shift Atlanta is a dangerous business. But nothing she’s faced could have prepared her for this…
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 his 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…
Review: How not to succumb to a new novel by Ilona Andrews? I think we all wait with great anticipation each book and it was a pleasure to immerse myself in the world of Kate Daniels! All the characters we love are of course also here!
Kate and Curran have finally decided to formalize their relationship and to get married. But now, their marriage also announces big changes and the oracles predict the destruction of Atlanta and the love ones of our heroine. Our heroes will then have to decide how they wish to act in particular when it comes to Roland. In fact, a multitude of events follows one after the other and Kate must thus manage her marriage, the war looming but also her power she does not master. No, Kate did not expect that her wedding preparations would take so much of her time and even if someone does it for her, she is obliged to be present for the details. It’s pretty funny it must be said to see them handle all this then that is the last thing they want to do. As I said, Kate must also manage her new responsibilities, including her new powers and her taste for ever more. It’s really not easy to assist to these events, especially when we see that she goes deep down. And then we have Roland … It’s always very difficult to state about him. It is definitely crazy and horrible at the same time to see his relationship with Kate as it is quite complicated to define. Yet, choices will have to be made and we see with our characters the preparation of a confrontation.
I can also tell you that we learn much more about Kate and her family and I loved knowing all these revelations and explanations. Besides, as always, Ilona Andrews carried me with the story and I was struggling to put the the novel down before finishing it. It was once again a compelling and fantastic story that I enjoyed reading it and can not wait to read more!
I haven’t had a chance to read this one yet, Melliane, so I skimmed your review. I’m so happy it was a 5 star read for you, I’m very excited about Magic Binds. More Kate and Curran goodness is always awesome 🙂
