Publisher's summary

Mercenary Kate Daniels and her mate, Curran, the Beast Lord, are struggling to solve a heartbreaking crisis. Unable to control their beasts, many of the Pack’s shape-shifting children fail to survive to adulthood. While there is a medicine that can help, the secret to its making is closely guarded by the European packs, and there’s little available in Atlanta. Kate can’t bear to watch innocents suffer, but the solution she and Curran have found threatens to be even more painful. The European shape-shifters who once outmaneuvered the Beast Lord have asked him to arbitrate a dispute - and they’ll pay him in medicine. With the young people’s survival and the Pack’s future at stake, Kate and Curran know they must accept the offer - but they have little doubt that they’re heading straight into a trap.…

Well Worth the Wait!

Action packed as normal. And I just love the dynamics between Kate and Curran. I am really part of the fan club :) Romantically he got in a little trouble in this one, but he came through like the true hero that he is. Kate and all of he support cast have a fantastic adventure and we get a glimpse into her past before the guild. Solid, exiting addition.

Renee Raudman it was a joy to listen to you.

Oh and the "Bonus" was a hit....Thanks!

The only thing I hate about this book is that it ended!!!!!! omg I have got to wait another year :(

OMG WOW

This one really put them through the ringer especially the last quarter. I can't say more without spoiling.

Just know that this is a MUST LISTEN for fans of the series.

Can't wait for more Kate!!!

This story just keeps getting better. My only complaint is that it wasn't long enough. I forgot this one was coming and randomly started re-listening to all the other books which took me right to this release, I was SO happily surprised!!!

I laughed and cried, this was Kate's toughest challenge yet and it was close but to say more would be to spoil it for everyone else..

Hope you all enjoy it as much as I did!!

Hurt, Trust, and Honor

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, I would absolutely recommend this book to a friend. It presents one of Kate's more significant challenges. Is everything she believes in a lie? Her strong relationship with Curran and the pack - faltering? Her perception of her father and his supporters - mistaken? Kate is both emotionally and physically hurt. Honor and trust are called into question - what does the future hold?

What other book might you compare Magic Rises to and why?

Only thing I could compare it to would be the previous books in the series...all containing interesting characters, action, and intrigue.

Which scene was your favorite?

I loved Kate sparring with Hugh - stunning!

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Was it all just a big mistake? What if everything you thought you knew was wrong?

Any additional comments?

One note - Hugh's 'voice' changed from the previous encounter (Magic Strikes). He had an odd, noticeable voice previously. The new voice is not bad, just a distinct change.
