A storm brews over Greenville - with Aedan front and center.
The crew has finally found stability, but any dreams of downtime are crushed when Aedan rolls back into town and demands Jon make good on his debts. Seizing on the momentary peace that’s fallen over the region, Aedan drags Jon off to help in his search for freedom.
Jon makes the most of his involuntary vacation, putting Aedan’s connections to use even as the immortal pulls him deeper and deeper into the fray. He needs a healer for Greyson, and the resources to pay one. With the Greenville team at odds with the marketeers, those resources are hard to come by.
In his scrabbling for anything he can use, though, Jon makes a startling find - a discovery that has the potential to shake his very understanding of himself. A discovery that draws unwanted eyes, and threatens to destabilize magical society entirely.
With the stakes rising, Jon has to find answers, fast - even if those answers will themselves bring trouble down on Greenville and their crew.
Casey White lives in Michigan with her husband and the requisite herd of roaming cats. She splits her time - spending her days working the desk as a civil engineer, and her nights writing fiction ranging from fantasy to scifi and everything in-between.
Her stories tend towards the more personal - she favors first person or over-the-shoulder third person that matches punchy, fast-paced storytelling with ongoing internal dialogue.
Her fiction can be found at her website, listed above, or at the subreddit where she publishes her novels one chapter at a time - https://www.reddit.com/r/Inorai/
Was excited to see there was a second book after enjoying the first. Casey has come a long way since the first book and I found the writing much better and easier to follow. It was a little repetitive with some of the events but it had an absolutely unexpected plot twist. Nevertheless I did really enjoy this book and the introduction of new characters and their final goal and motives. Cannot wait for Legion (#3) to be finished!
it's like this. imagine you see this person with a dagger. just a really, really pretty dagger. blade of blue diamond, or ruby, or whatever your birthstone is. handle of gold filigreed or something. look i like flashy things, but if your most beautiful dagger has got a honey wood handle and a shiny steel blade we're still on good terms. okay and now that person walks up to you, tells some really good jokes, and stabs you under the kneelbone with that beautiful dagger. looks you in the eyes as you've got a dagger in your beating heart, and starts f*cking twisting it. with a grin. tells another joke. g-d i hate this book and love it. can't wait to buy it in print and leave around the house for my innocent siblings.
This series so far is absolutely amazing! I'm surprised it isn't more popular. It really needs to be read. I can't wait to see how it all plays out. I could go into so much detail about this book and the writing and how it hooks you in but I don't want to ruin the magic.
Incredibly well written, thrilling story. Twists and turns are added in a way that feeds into the story's thrill as opposed to pushing a word count. Excellent read.
