The Solstice Countdown by Lisa Shearin
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Look what came in the mail yesterday! These books are fun and I will read them as long as Lisa Shearin continues to write them.
This is the first book where Makenna doesn't have her SPI partner Ian backing her up. But she has returned to her home in North Carolina and is surrounded by her community. There are big surprises waiting for her there, one good, most in the regrettable category. Once she comes to terms with her mother's revelations, she realizes where some of her supernatural talents come from.
This is Rake's introduction to the Frazer clan and he passes muster, as we knew he would. A dark battle mage is always handy to have around and he earns his place in the family. Now it remains necessary for Makenna to go to Regor to meet the goblin family that she is joining. Maybe the next book?
I hope that Shearin will make enough dough from these self published volumes to continue on. My only regret is that my only source to purchase them is through the behemoth bookseller who shall remain unnamed. Don't draw the evil one's attention by speaking their name, you know the drill, fantasy readers!
