Our view
“Magic Binds” mixes high-stakes drama with dark, snappy humour, and readers consistently say the blend comes off. Ilona Andrews sets Kate’s wedding plans against her father Roland’s grab for power and a prophecy that marrying will cost her both the man she loves and the city. Some readers feel the jokes come close to undercutting the drama before the book recovers. A late volume of “Kate Daniels”, for those who have come this far.

About the book
Mercenary Kate Daniels knows all too well that magic in post-Shift Atlanta is a dangerous business. But nothing she’s faced could have prepared her for what’s to come in this heart-stopping novel in the #1 New York Times bestselling series. Kate and the former Beast Lord Curran Lennart are finally making their relationship official. But there are some steep obstacles standing in the way of their walk to the altar. Kate’s father, Roland, has kidnapped the demigod Saiman and is slowly bleeding him dry in a never-ending bid for power. A Witch Oracle has predicted that if Kate marries the man she loves, Atlanta will burn and she will lose him forever. And the only person Kate can ask for help is long dead. The odds are impossible. The future is grim. But Kate Daniels has never been one to play by the rules...
