Magitek

Rift Chronicles Series, Book 1

By: BR Kingsolver

Narrated by: Rachel Dulude

My name is Danica James. I'm a cop with the Arcane Division.

Most mages have the ability to manipulate the elements - fire, water, air, earth, electricity. My magic only works on machines and electrical devices. They call me a magitek. That doesn't help much with demons and vampires, let alone criminals with lethal magikal powers.

Contains mature themes.

Love it

Great story I loved it. I can’t wait to read the rest! Very creative and interesting stuff

Good start

Overall fast paced, lots of action urban fantasy. A good first in series and world building. Sometimes the story gets bogged down with too much detailed explAnations but overall good.

Great story building

I enjoyed this book more that Kingsolvers other books. I find the other books 4 stars and this is a 5 star book. I liked that the MC's best friend was actually a good friend and her partner was a good and helpful work partner. I've read too many books lately where both were rude, jealous and judgemental of anything involving the MC. How is that supposed to be entertaining? I do like conflict in a book and this had a lot of that where it is supposed to be. The book is more adult than teen and the case involved is human trafficking, mostly teens. There is also some demon (soft) erotica but nothing graphic. This kept my attention. I laughed, gasped and was saddened. I looked forward to the next book in the series.

Solid plot

I liked the character. I love this narrator! I would listen to the second book.

Love BR Kingsolver book and imagination

This book didn’t disappoint. I have listened to a number of her books and read them and really enjoyed this and can’t to see how it develops as we go forward. The characters are great but I really like the suspense and intrigue that is always apparent in her series.
