Smart-mouthed Eve Levine, a witch with a reputation for breaking the rules, may be dead, but as she proves in this overstuffed paranormal romance (a follow-up to Industrial Magic), she can still raise hell in the hereafter—which, in this case, is a curiously ordinary dimension in which ghosts like Eve and her also deceased former lover, a sorcerer named Kris, can bicker, have sex and use their paranormal powers. The Fates, three elusive sisters, are the rulers of this otherworldly dimension, and they have a job for Eve. If she can defeat a demonic Nix who's wreaking havoc in the human realm by inducing people to kill, she'll earn her wings—literally. The catch: she can't capture the Nix without the powers that angelhood affords. Eve surmounts this hurdle by teaming up with a hunky and humanlike angel named Trsiel, but her quest, which is fraught with obstacles as well as unnecessary distractions, is lengthy and meandering. In addition, Eve's kick-butt-ask-questions-later attitude, while amusing, can be wearying, and the rules of Armstrong's alternate world seem conveniently changeable. Still, those who appreciate heroines with a good measure of spunk, sass and strong-arm savvy will find this a fun if fitful read

RELEASE NOTES:

Hand delivering to AmberC

collected from woosangs very own hands.

Not as good as the previous books in this series. It took me a while to get into it, when i did the story kept me entertained. The quest could have lost a couple of steps without missing anything and the ending wasn't exactly a surprise.

To be handed to Sally at the meet-up on Saturday. Thanks for sharing woosang, and for your patience with how long it has taken me to read.

Handing it over to Sally at the meet-up

Amber passed it to me this morning.

Finished this yesterday - did not enjoy it as much as the previous books in the series - but was still a good read and interesting concept.

Will send on to kzel as soon as she resends me her snail mail address

Picked up from the post office on Saturday (01/07/06). Have a few books to read ahead of this, but will get to it as soon as I can...

I actually managed to finish this a couple of weeks ago, but am only just getting around to journalling it. I loved this story, and thought that it was one of the best in the series. There was some great character development and some interesting sub-plots.

On its way to catsalive

This bookring has arrived. Thanks, kzel.

I enjoyed the interplay between Eve and Kris, there was a bit of humour there, but the book as a whole didn't really grab me. Interesting but not as good as some of the others. I think Stolen has probably been my favourite.

Thanks, woosang. I'll hang onto this until I have a big pile of books to send, or maybe I'll get to see you some time. Either way, you know where it is and it'll be safe except for getting covered in cat & dog fur. That's unavoidable here.

Returning to woosang this arvo @ the Glenmore.
