Resumen del Editor

Recently named the world's chief clairvoyant, Cassandra Palmer still has a thorn in her side. As long as Cassie and a certain master vampire---the sizzling-hot Mircea---are magically bound to each other, her life will never be her own.

The spell that binds them can only be broken with an incantation found in the Codex Merlini, an ancient grimoire. The Codex's location has been lost in the present day, so Cassie will have to seek it out in the only place it can still be found---the past.

But Cassie soon realizes the Codex has been lost for a reason. The book is rumored to contain some seriously dangerous spells, and retrieving it may help Cassie to deal with Mircea, but it could also endanger the world.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Karen Chance will entrall you." ( Rebecca York, author of Ghost Moon)

Third Time's the Charm

Absolutely love this entire series. Karen Chance solves one problem but still leaves you hanging, asking for more at the end.

What happened?

I liked Embrace the Night, but all of the half truths, time travel, death threats, the sisters, fights, the children, the arrest, the ouroboros....all together it was a bit too much. I really liked the opening scene in the Paris catacombs but after that everything just seemed as if the author threw together ideas and stirred the pot leaving readers wondering where this story would go next or how it would all tie back together. For the most part, open threads were closed.

3 ☆'s

This book was OK. Some parts seemed to drag on. I found myself rewinding parts over and over because they were boring but, critical to the storyline.

Great story

I started with book 5 and found I needed to know the beginning I have been going through them like water

Fun and worth the listen

This series is just plain fun. These characters aren't the sharpest tools in the shed, but they are hilariously flawed :) I can't wait for y'll to get the next book in this series as well as more books from Karen Chance.

Great Story

Ms. Chance has created a great fantasy. Cassie Palmer gets more and more interesting with each installment of the series. The only thing lacking with Cassie's character is that she doesn't seem to want to be intelligent; she only learns accidentally or when she is forced to read something. It would be a nice addition to the character if she would try to be knowledgeable.

Amazing world building and story!

Karen Chance is an awesome storyteller. The Cassie Palmer and Pritkin stories are my favorite. Definitely one of my favorite series of all time. Her strong female characters are inspiring. Can’t wait for more!

Really good series

This book has lots of action. Vamps, Pixies, Witches, a little sex and a lot of laughs. Great narrator.

Like the stories--hate the narrator

I like the series other than the fact that the heroine is as dumb as a box of rocks, it gets tiresome after a while. I would recommend the stories but caution as strongly as possible to be prepared for some of the most mangled pronunciations a narrator has ever uttered. I like the stories enough to try to ignore it, bad luck for us this narrator does most of the authors I like so I am getting better at finding her less maddening.

Fun, sexy, wildly inventive UF series!

Any additional comments?
Another great installment in a fun series. This one follows Cassie's escapades through time as she frantically tries to save Mircea's life and both of their sanities from a spell gone wrong. Fun, sexy, wildly inventive UF. Cynthia Holloway does a great job of breathing life into each character.
