Good start to a new series and a very interesting take on magic and how it effects the earth, people and history.
Very interesting characters and I love Jack and Georgie and hope the series progresses with them in it so I can see them grow.
I love the idea of the Weird, the Broken and the Edge. It's simple concept but the diverse stories that can out of it really do define this as an Ilona Andrews book. The action sequences are well done and easy to follow whilst not being condescending to the reader. The character sit-ups are simple yet effective. Another key indicator of the writing genius of Ilona and Gordon Andrews is that the female characters are strong especially Rose and even when vulnerable they aren't whiny or pitiable. Each character no matter how little has an great inner strength. Declan isn't the domineering Blue-Blood he purports to be and as the reader you know this and are willing Rose to see. Rather than bandying about the bush they relationship moves cleanly (of a sort) each recognising the strengths or the other.
A wonderful series that I believe will really excel!

WOW!
Kate is insecure! She undergoes such an emotional roller oyster I'm surprised at times how she stays on board.
Not set in Atlanta... Heck not even in the USA, Kate, Curran, Derek, Andrea, Raphael and co head across the great big pond.
There are many secrets (as usual) and Kate and Curran's relationship undergoes a lot of stress and tests. They actually talk to each other (eventually) and gives me hope for the future.
The were's play a great part in this story and you can see the eventual show down with Kate's father on the horizon, though there is one surprising suitor to contend with first.
This is very much a 'you must read' book and I don't want to give anything away. If you're a fan of the Kate Daniels series you won't be disappointed. If you haven't read any.... Why not!? Start at the beginning it's TOTALLY worth it. One of my favourite series'.
