Buried Secrets: An inter realm urban fantasy

by P.A. Mason

Three months vanished through a gate. I came out an orc-murderer, an Earth fugitive, and the Elven Council’s favorite problem.

To live, I submit to orc law and a rite that binds me to their dead, branding me with a legacy I never the matriarch’s memories of the ancient paths between worlds.

That knowledge could end the war. It could also rip three worlds apart.

Back on Earth, the sun’s out, the magic’s wild, and I’m hunted in my own backyard. Leylandir and I finally stop pretending it’s just the mission between us… and then blood and duty tear him away.

It’s probably for the best, because every path to sealing the gates ends at the same forgone conclusion. Save the worlds and lose him on the other side of the multiverse.

They trained me to survive war. They never prepared me to win peace by breaking my own heart.

The heart-punch third installment in War for Magic—slow-burn enemies-to-lovers, near‑future military grit, and ancient gates that don’t care what they cost.

We’re at the third book in the series, and Wow what another fantastic book in the series. Following the story Leylandir and Asha and boy are they put through it again and again. We have meet some new characters some nice (the aunties) some not so nice (Government employees).

I am so intrigued about what’s going to happen next, and I have really enjoyed this installment and would recommend it’s added to your TBR list.

I received this arc from the author and this is my honest opinion

We’re at the third book in the series, and what a third installment it is. We are back with Leylandir and Asha, and boy are they lead through the wringer. They must find the other gate on Earth to shut them all down, and in their search, they stir up a hornet’s nest. We meet some new characters, which I really liked, and we learned some new information about both main characters. I am intrigued about what’s going to happen next, and I really enjoyed this latest installment. Recommend. I was provided a complimentary copy which I voluntarily reviewed.
