Not quite right maybe, like something is missing. When it opens, it might feel a little weird. An ending which answers some questions, but leaves you longing for more… Well, the original chapters were sharpened rather than hugely changed, but more importantly, there are an extra 5 that bring everything to a stunning conclusion. Now, if you read what was on the website, you might wonder what’s new. I blasted through the online chapters with increasing excitement and when they were pulled in preparation for the book, I counted the days till the release date. And being back in Atlanta means that she’s going to have to face some issues (and people) from her past that she thought she’d put well and truly behind her. Except this might be a situation too hot for her to handle. Her years away, spent with a dearly beloved Aunt, have taught her a great deal, so much that she feels more than ready for the big leagues. The switch from Julie Lennart to Aurelia Ryder is the least of the transformations. I certainly didn’t think a new name and some time away was going to change my mind about Julie or impress me much. (My priorities being the most important, obviously). Who wants to see more of her? Where’s my new Hugh instalment, dammit?! Come on! PRIORITIES Ilona. But for Aurelia, facing disaster is easy it's relationships that are hard.OK, I’ll admit it, when I heard there was going to be another Julie story, I was less than enthused. One small misstep could lead to disaster. She expected danger, but she never anticipated that the only man she'd ever loved could threaten everything. So her plan is simple: get in, solve the murders, prevent the prophecy from being fulfilled, and get out without being recognized. If Aurelia's true identity is discovered, those closest to her will die. An ancient power is stalking her adopted mother, Kate Daniels, an enemy unlike any other, and a string of horrifying murders is its opening gambit. Now she's back with a new face, a new magic, and a new name-Aurelia Ryder-drawn by the urgent need to protect the family she left behind. Eight years ago, Julie Lennart left Atlanta to find out who she was. Now, as waves of magic and technology compete for supremacy, it's a place caught in a slow apocalypse, where monsters spawn among the crumbling skyscrapers and supernatural factions struggle for power and survival. From award-winning author, Ilona Andrews, an all-new novel set in the New York Times #1 bestselling Kate Daniels World and featuring Julie Lennart-Olsen, Kate and Curran's ward.
