I didn’t realize that this was the last book in the series until the very end, and now I’m extremely sad. Kayla is such a great character, and I love this universe in this series so much. Oddly enough, I kept hoping that Desmond and Ezri would just come back to life. Ah, well, anyway, this last book in the series was a great adventure. I love detective-type stories with magic or paranormal intertwined, and this certainly fits the bill. Explosions, magic stealing, and settling relationships are all on tap in this book, and again, I hate to see it go. I’ll just to wait and see what this talented author has in store for us readers next. Highly recommend. I was provided a complimentary copy which I voluntarily reviewed.

This is book three of the Agents of Magic series and Agent Kayla is about to see off her friend and fellow FBI agent, Perri, who is hoping to be transferred to Boston, from her current position in Washington, DC. For her last day in Boston, now her case is finished, Kayla is showing her the sights, when she suddenly senses a huge build-up of magic with an evil intent! Next minute, an explosion goes off and she is knocked to the ground. When she gets up, she sees someone in the upstairs window and ignores her own safety, to try and reach them. She doesn’t quite make it as far as she wanted, before her magic glitches and she ends up rescued by a fireman and ends up in JT’s care, a magical healer and paramedic! With her magic on the blink, she wonders whether she is really worth her position as an FBI Agent, believing only her magic got her into the position! Luckily, the mundane agents and her boss, manage to dissuade her of that. Jacquie, Molly and young agent and possible love interest Duncan, are all mundane, but know about magic and she is the magical liaison in their team. Digging into the explosion she and Perri practically walked straight into, soon leads to a previous explosion that happened in a restaurant. Each had the same M.O., with some sort of magical bomb being used and a magical person possibly being targeted. Kayla also has her previous relationship with Kevin to resolve, who was imprisoned after being waylaid into bad decisions, but upon his release he left, wanting to explore his options and the world.
Duncan would like to see where he and Kayla could go in a relationship, but it is unfair to him to allow anything to happen whilst she still has her previous relationship unresolved. As they start to dig into the two different explosions, the team need to figure out who is behind them and why they are doing it. What was the purpose of the build-up of magic and the explosion, is unclear at the moment. When her friend, the Saviour and Desmond were sacrificed and Authority members and whole bloodlines had their magic stolen, thoughts of something similar begin to come together in Kayla’s thoughts. When the team meet up in Molly’s boyfriend Jonathan’s local magical nightclub, a third explosion is set off and things change drastically for Kayla, after she is hit by a huge blast of the explosion. Molly is also affected and in a way no one could have ever guessed. Kayla now has to go about her investigation a little differently than normal and it affects her confidence in her role a bit. Evidence soon leads the team towards one person as the culprit, but that is just a little bit too easy and it soon becomes a more tragic reason behind the explosions and one person’s wish to regain what they lost! A dangerous case for the team and especially for Kayla, as issues from the past come back to haunt them all and are a reminder of those they lost. It seems that might be all that was going to happen, but their only suspect is keeping quiet and is too worried to say anything about their partner in crime and what they have planned! Kayla needs to work it out and get it stopped before she loses a lot more of those she loves and her magic, in this explosive finale. I received an ARC copy of this book from BookSprout and I have freely given my own opinion of the book above.

Kayla is a wonderful character, who finally comes into her own both in the FBI and as witch. Enzi’s sacrifice will forever be part of this verse, but Kayla has finally come to terms with it and can found her own path.

this felt like coming back to a pivotal bunch of plots earlier in this series.
one time goth girl is now a mostly settled into her job FBI agent who seems relationship addled, um handicapped.
one time renegades settled into new positions within the magical community, or world.
groups and counselors in place for supporting folks who suffered from the magic loss to some bloodlines a few years ago.
it is a world still in mourning over the loss of Desmond and the Saviour, who played pivotal roles in efforts to save the world and the magic.
there are still folks more broken and trying to find or make their way.
and there are still lethal hazards and destruction, as well as community efforts to pull together and keep rebuilding.
another powerful volume, action packed, wrenching and enlightening.

She might need a day off, but this is not going to be that day. And by the time this case is cover, one day to recover will probably not be enough.
This is book three of the series and its conclusion. It actually does okay as a standalone, but you will get a much better experience if you start from the beginning.
This is an urban fantasy series. The story is well written and easy to read with a well developed setting. The characters are also solid and well done with diverse personalities that bring things to life. Our heroine is tough and smart, which is just the way I like them. The plot moves along at a good clip and includes a nice mix of action and intrigue. Overall, this was a great series and I look forward to seeing what our author creates next.
Highly recommended.

Kayla is back for her last mystery and it was a dozy. Glued from the beginning to see what trouble she would face this time and watch her discover the clues and solve the mystery. Lots of action, surprises and fun to read. Enjoyed it and trying to guess what was going on as the clues are uncovered.

I have really enjoyed this series and am sad to see Kayla’s adventures come to an end. Our FBI / witch is settling into her role when magical bombs start exploding. Mystery, suspense, action packed and full of twists and turns and surprises that will have you on the edge of your seat. A fantastic urban fantasy series.

Sarah Biglow never fails to entertain and this latest addition to Agents of Magic is no exception. The character work and story line were well written and kept me reading in one sitting.
