Magiere has earned a reputation as the most formidable vampire slayer in the land. Villagers far and wide welcome her with both awe and disdain - grateful to her for ridding their towns of the undead menace, but finding themselves made poorer for their salvation. Magiere knows she's dealing with simple folk, who only wish to have their superstitions silenced, and sees nothing wrong with exploiting them for profit.

When marine private Oliver Chadwick Gardenier is killed in the marine barrack bombing in Beirut, somebody who might be Saint Peter gives him a choice: Go to heaven, which, while nice, might be a little boring, or return to earth. The Boss has a mission for him, and he's to look for a sign. He's a marine: He'll choose the mission. Unfortunately, the sign he's to look for is "57". Which, given the food services contract in Bethesda Hospital, creates some difficulty. Eventually it appears that God's will is for Chad to join a group called Monster Hunters International.

Landover was a genuine magic kingdom, with fairy folk and wizardry, just as the advertisement promised. But after he purchased it, Ben Holiday learned that there were a few details the ad had failed to mention.

The kingdom was in ruin. The Barons refused to recognize the king, and the peasants were without hope.

much more YA Than other books in the series

There was a lot more internal struggle and a lot of Wyn yelling Noooo! But aside from that, an excellent start to the story line. I look forward to the rest.

Read It to Get Background Story?

What did you love best about In Shade and Shadow?

I thought it was going to give back story that was important to the Magiere and Leesl story. There was some intrigue with what happened to the Sages, and the Guild hierarchy was interesting

Who was your favorite character and why?

Nicholas. I thought he could become an interesting character, but that was never developed.

What about Tanya Eby’s performance did you like?

she is always outstanding. Lots of difficult names and places, but she consistently uses the same pronunciation every time.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No, it didn't move very quickly

Any additional comments?

There were so many characters that could have been developed and took attention away from the annoying Wynn (thank goodness), but they weren't really developed as they could have. Still, this one was interesting and I hoped was a good lead up back to Magiere and Leesl
