Mythverse #7
Defy & Defend
Thinking outside the box can be a bad idea...especially when it's Pandora's Box.
I'm Mavis, cat-shifter and squad leader of the baddest group of paranormal prisoners in all the worlds. And I mean WORLDS. Plural.
A portal was recently opened to a whole new world by the name of Tartarus. I'm pretty sure it's not gonna become a hot vacation spot. Not when the creatures that live there are strong enough to kill gods. Anyone with any sense should stay far far away.
But that's never been my style.
Especially not when my sister is trapped there, along with her vampire boyfriend. I've got to reopen the portal, get them out, and then slam that portal closed before more monsters cross over.
It's a big job, but with the help of my team - a stoic bear shifter, a sugar-addicted fae-vamp hybrid, and a sexaholic incubus - we'll get it done...or leave my sister to burn in hell forever.

Defy & Defend (Mythverse #7) (Underworld Reformatory #2) by Demitria Lunetta, Marley Lynn, & Kate Karyus Quinn
Published December 2020
Publisher: Little Fish Publishing
Genre: Fantasy, Mystery
Defy & Defend (previously called Dream Team) is the seventh book in the Mythverse by Demitria Lunetta, Marley Lynn & Kate Karyus Quinn. This book can easily be read as a standalone mystery.
I absolutely loved Mavis! She really came into her own in this book and I am here for it!!!
I absolutely loved this book!!! This was a funny, kinda dirty supernatural mystery! The story was awesome and filled with fun twists and turns and a lot of unexpected adventure!
Since I have read and loved the Down & Dirty Supernatural Cleaning Services series I loved how this book leads right into that series. This book is NSFW and that is part of what makes it awesome! The profanity used in this book naturally flows with the storyline and is 100% appropriate for the characters.
If you are looking for a funny, paranormal mystery, then this book is for you!

I love the growth to team status. I just wish there was more adventure to follow! These are really excellent characters. Some of them appear in the great "Down and Dirty Paranormal Cleaning Service" series, so there is that consolation.
This was such a fun portion of the series. I enjoyed Mavis' adventures in Mythverse books 5 and 6. She was such a different character from Edie. I appreciated her growth arc in this book.
Some types remain in the ARC, but I'm not sure how to submit those for correction. Happily, this book is available on Kindle Unlimited! I read the ARC but will be re-reading the whole series through KU.

This is the 2nd book with Mavis front and center. It has a wide array of colorful characters. Much growth with Mavis as she comes into her own. It's just as humorous as the previous book with sadness mixed in.
However, the saddest part of all is that it's the series ender. How will it all end? Will it be happy or will it all go to shite? For those answers, you'll have to read for yourself. I highly suggest you do. It's fantastically well written.
5 stars, 2 thumbs up and one click worthy without a doubt!

Dream Team: Underworld Reformatory by Kate Karyus Quinn is an amazing story that I have loved reading. This is book number seven in this amazing series that I have loved reading since the beginning. I highly recommend this story to everyone who loves reading about cat shifters, vampires, bear shifters, fantasy and paranormal romance.

This is the second book with Mavis as the main character. She's a cat-shifter and she's trying to rescue her sister the main character of the first series.
It's a quick-paced book and I've enjoyed reading each series in this world.
Overall, I enjoyed the story, like I have the others, and can't wait to see where this goes in book 3!

Awesome series
Another exciting roller-coaster ride full of adventure, more interesting characters and plots. A must read series for young adult and up.

Excellent series!
I love these authors. They are extremely witty and funny. So many laugh out loud moments. There’s also many sad ones. I recommend this series!

I enjoyed this one quite a bit. This is the second book and you need to read the first one prior to picking up this one or you will miss out on things. This was an easy one to read for me. It went by quickly and I had fun with it. I enjoyed the humor that was in it. This is an eclectic group of people that have been brought together and are now trying to save the world.
