Wow - this third installment in the series started out slowly but ended with a cliffhanger on Samhaim. It did take me several chapters to get back up to speed with the characters and into this installment but from there I enjoyed the book. It did end with bang and left me wondering what happens to Mac in the end. This is the 3rd of 5 books so you may want to wait to read them all at one time once they come out. I love books that are series because I enjoy the characters growing and changing but I hate waiting to for the next installment! There was not even a sneak peek at the end of this one. This is "urban fantasy" with very little romance so far...I think Mac may end up with some romance in the last installments but right now she is going through lots of issues trying to find her sister's murderer and protect the city of Dublin from the Fae within it and those "bad" fae who are trying to escape their prison to end mankind. It does not make me want to visit Dublin anytime soon with its "Dark Zones" that people do not return from.
From Publishers Weekly...
Urban Celtic fantasy slides down a dark, depressing slope in bestseller Moning's third Fever thriller (after Bloodfever), centered on a hunt for the Sinsar Dubh, a black magic book more than a million years old. As All Hallow's Eve in Dublin approaches, the walls between the human world and Faery verge on collapse. Can former Georgia peach MacKayla Mac Lane prevent a total invasion of the Unseelie Court? Originally intent on avenging her sister Alina's murder committed by Unseelie Lord Master, Mac's now a power-player in the war between the Seelie (good Fae) and Unseelie (bad Fae), after learning she's a Celtic sidhe-seeker who can sniff out OOPS (Objects of Power). Meanwhile, the attractive V'Lane, a death-by-sex Fae, wants Mac's help in securing the Sinsar Dubh for his Seelie queen, Aoibheal. At the end, erotic shocks await Mac in Dublin's vast Dark Zone, setting up feverish—if wary—expectations for the next installment. (Sept.)
