Beginning:
The skull glared at me out of empty eye sockets.Friday 56:
"Do anything," the crone said. "We gave you this city--"This week I am finally getting a chance to read Magic Binds by Ilona Andrews. This is the latest in her Kate Daniels series. Here's the description from Amazon:
"No. I took this city. I took it by myself and I protected it from my father's claiming. You didn't help. You weren't there."
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...
Still on my TBR pile but coming up to read soon.
