Allie Beckstrom and her lover and Soul Compliment, Zayvion Jones, have returned from Death - wearied and beaten, but alive. Though perhaps not for long - an ally in the Authority, the group who determines how magic is used, tries to kill them; the head of the Authority is kidnapped; and three magical prisoners have escaped from the most secure prison in the world. When allies become enemies, and enemies are not who you think they are, it's no wonder that even the leaders of the Authority are under scrutiny by their superiors.
Based in an alternate version of Portland, Oregon, the Allie Beckstrom novels are fast-paced, high-action reads from beginning to end. For readers new to the series, I would recommend starting at the beginning with Magic to the Bone, as each novel continues the story from its predecessors.
Book Count: 25 read, 175 to go!
