Damask Circle Book 1: Circle Of Fire by Keri Arthur Piatkus Fiction Supplied for review by Hachette New Zealand |
Reviewed By: Jan Buterworth |
| The Damask Circle is an organisation that is made up of
people with supernatural talents that fight supernatural evil. Jon Barnett is hawk shape
shifter who is investigating the disappearance of sixteen teenagers, some of whose bodies
have been discovered drained of blood. When he’s shot and left for dead, he appears
to Maddie Smith in several dreams, asking for her help. Maddie is a clairvoyant fire
starter who has never accepted her gifts and, being thought crazy by her family, has
retreated from the world. She ignores Jon until her nephew vanishes and she needs
Jon’s help to find him. Though I never figured out who the first panther was, I enjoyed the story. This book has Keri Arthur’s slow build up to the adventure and action, then its nonstop excitement. The story has the classic man/woman romantic tension, with the hero saving the day. A light, entertaining read, I’m looking forward to the next in the series. |
