‘Mortal In Mysteria’ by Susan
Grant
Harmony Faithfull has been having a
crisis of faith - faith in herself, her calling, her choices
and her faith period. All she wants is a sign that she is
doing what she needs to do to keep her faith. She was not
expecting the sign to turn up naked in her garden. Everyone
deserves a second chance even naked demons – right?
Susan Grant writes with a wit and
feeling that draws the reader in. ‘Mortal in Mysteria’
has the reader jump onto the bandwagon of someone you
would not normally feel friendly towards. Both Harmony and
Damon are wonderful characters that I enjoyed getting to
know and hope to see again.
‘Alone Wolf’ by Mary Janice Davidson
Cole Jones bought a house in Mysteria
from the sexy realtor Charlie. Having never really found a
place he felt was his home, he had to buy the house in
Mysteria. It was a place he never thought he would find, a
place that would feel right. Charlie is just that extra
bonus. Or was the house the bonus and Charlie the prize?
Only time would tell.
Sigh. ‘Alone Wolf’ is perfect.
The idea of finding a place to belong, and someone to love
you just as you are, is just right. Ms. Davidson writes with
her usual cleverness and sharp wit. Every book of hers I
have read makes me want to read more and more. ‘Alone
Wolf’ reinforces this with humor and intelligence.
‘The Witches of Mysteria and the
Dead Who Love Them’ by Gena Showalter
Genieve Tawdry, lovesick witch, has
been stalking Hunter Knight for years using every trick that
can get her closer to her target with the whole town
watching. Hunter keeps pulling away, but tonight she will
get close to him. No matter what it takes.
‘The Witches of Mysteria and the
Dead Who Love Them’ is a tale about the sturdiness of
love and what a person is willing and capable of doing in
the pursuit of it. ‘The Witches of Mysteria and the Dead
Who Love Them’ is an amusing and delightful story
with some dark edges to keep interest peaked.
‘Candy Cox and the Big Bad Wolf’
by P. C. Cast
Stuck with an unfortunate moniker,
Candy Cox had the added benefit or curse of not being
magically susceptible. No one in Mysteria could throw a
spell on her or to her. That does not stop her friends from
helping her out by throwing magic around her.
‘Candy Cox and the Big Bad Wolf’
is a beautiful tale of friendship being helpful and harmful
to a person. The dealing with repercussions of events in the
past, present and working towards the future. P.C. Cast adds
depth to the classic bad boy tale.
Mysteria is a collection
of four tales that are arranged around the town of Mysteria
and its residents. From the high school’s Fighting Fairies
to the pie shop where the cooking is done by royalty, the
tales are engrossing. All four are captivating and
believable in their own ways while mixing together
beautifully. From beginning to end, Mysteria
is truly enjoyable making you want to drive and find this
town to spend the night or forever. I have read stories by
all the authors in the past and now I want to go and find
their back lists and enjoy some more of their wonderful
writing styles. |
