BLOOD MAGIC

Blood Magic by Stephanie Foxe
Book 3 in the Witch's Bite series
Narrated by Laurel Schroeder
Genre: urban fantasy
Format: ebook & audiobookAudiobook


About Blood Magic:
I'm stuck with Reilly and stuck figuring out how to control my newfound power, which is starting to feel more like a curse. I never expected to be working with JHAPI.

I'm still not sure I can trust them, particularly Zachary's longtime friend who won't stop glaring at me. And I'm not sure that Zachary Brunson has forgiven me at all.

To make matters worse, I can't get rid of the welts on my arms, and I'm starting to see things I shouldn't.

All I want is to find and kill Martinez, and get away from Reilly, but that's proving to be easier said than done. Especially while discovering that the NWR always has another bloody trick up their sleeve.

My Thoughts:
Another short and sweet installment in the Witch's Bite series with 269 pages long. This one I read the ebook instead of listening to it, even though I already own the audiobook version. Teaches me not to buy books ahead of time instead of buying them only when I need to. Really not a fan of the narrator's singsong way of reading!

I've said most of what I have to say about this book in my review of the previous books in this series. Wonderful story telling quality. Beautiful world building. Characters to love, etc. etc. This one is more of the same. Like I said, short and sweet!

Empirical Evaluation:
Story telling quality = 5
Character development = 4.5
Story itself = 4.5
Writing Style = 5
Ending = 4
World building = 5
Cover art = 5
Pace = 5
Plot = 3
Narration = (N/A)

Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 cherries

Meet The Author

About Stephanie Foxe:
Stephanie Foxe was born and raised near Houston, TX. She grew up playing in the pond and woods in her backyard, and devouring every book she could get her hands on.

Her teen years were spent transitioning slowly from reader, to writer. She spent most evenings on the phone with her cousin writing the first few pages to many books that would never be finished.

Her adult years were spent toiling away at a corporate job until one fateful day when she heard about a little writing project called NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month). From there, the idea of writing a book went from a fanciful dream to a finished manuscript. The first book in the Witch’s Bite series was written, and Stephanie was addicted.

Now, she has plans to publish everything from paranormal fantasy to science fiction.

One book at a time.
