We finally get a story centered on Kimberley Adams, the FBI agent who’s been over to London a couple times to help out Peter. Along the way, she’s become the go to person at the FBI for ‘unusual occurrences’, aka magic. That’s how she finds herself up in Wisconsin in the winter, with a snow

This book picks up where The Ninth House left off – Alex and Dawes are trying to figure out how to get into Hell to rescue Darlington. Obviously, you really need to read the first book in the series to care why anything is happening in this book. The last book gave a pretty good

Biddy has grown up on a hidden island off the coast of Ireland, raised by the magician Rowan and his familiar, Hutchincroft, who spends most of his time as a rabbit. It’s a rather idyllic existence, but as she gets older, she starts to realize that it’s rather odd that Rowan doesn’t allow her to

This is a such a sweet little story. Otta’s six, and lives on her father’s ship. One morning, the ship’s boy finds a rat, and Otta sees a pet. The First Mate doesn’t approve, and sends the rat overboard. What they don’t know is that the rat is hosting a baby elemental – the very

Dellaria Wells is just trying to make her rent, and keep her mother off the street. She’s a fire witch with some power, but it’s not like that’ll make her money. Until the day that she bumbles her way into a job as one of the bodyguards to a young lady who’s headed out to

This is a fun continuation of Indexing. What I was interested to read at the end was that the author hadn’t necessarily meant to write another set of stories about these characters, but people kept asking her what was going to come next. Having fairly recently read the original book, I’m not surprised. While that
