My Review:
The Prophecy of The Wind
Joss Walker
Walker’s 4th book in the series is getting
down to the nitty gritty, there is a chance the Torrent, the place where
magicals lasso their magic from, is in danger and Jayne is both the reason and
the fix but getting the truth out of her Goddesses is like pulling teeth. In
this installation readers will find some new characters both good and evil, a
few new enemies, some unlikely new friends and a few ah ha moments and gasps as
the plot thickens. The characters are all fantastic, especially Jayne, her
sister Sofia, their respective rogues and the other CIA operatives. The plot is
still fresh and unique with plenty of edge of your seat and nail biting moments
with just enough hints to the future to peak reader’s interest. Fans of this
author, Jennifer Estep and Jayne Ann Krentz will love this series which should
be read in order.
Jayne Thorne CIA librarian is up to her ears in enemies, having trouble dealing with her new rogue Vivienne, sister to her nemesis the too sexy for his shirt Tristan and with the newfound discovery that her father is still alive. And to top all that she’s been tasked with decoding the prophecy of a new goddess who’s hinting of things that Jayne doesn’t want to think of. Meanwhile the world is quickly falling apart because of the upheaval in the Torrent, new untried magicals are coming out of the woodwork exposing themselves to the unmagical world, putting themselves and those around them in danger. All in a day in the life of a secret CIA operative.
