4 STARS! Chanticleer Book Reviews for Summer Lightning, Book 3 in the fantasy romance series, Magic at Myers Beachm by Alan B. Gibson, Published by LMBPN Publishing.
"In Summer Lightning, the third book in Alan B. Gibson's Magic at Myers Beach series, fairy prince Alias shoulders the weight of his people's prejudice, but also their very lives."
"Someone has poisoned the natural reserves of fairy dust ingredients, lacing it with deadly iron. With many of his people already dead, and others terribly ill, King Theos relies on his younger brother Alias to devise the lost recipe with ingredients found at Myers Beach."
"Calling back to earlier books in the series, Summer Lightning menaces the protagonists with hints of their old villain, a powerful and vengeful witch. But, more personally, Alias has to face the traumatic memories of his old tutor-from the days he spent growing up in the Third Kingdom."
"(Protagonist) Alias's emotional journey will pull readers in, with his struggle between responsibility, personal connections, and the shadows of the past."
"Summer Lightning doesn't shy away from darker subject matter, and as the story continues, readers will delve deeper into Alias's memories of the cruelty he's suffered-all while his old traumas resurface in new and dangerous forms."
"With a well-balanced mixture of comedy, intrigue, drama, and satire, Summer Lightning brings these magical characters to major crossroads as they try to keep up with the sinister forces ensnaring their homelands."
