Persephone is dealing with the aftermath from the battle with the Fairies. She's dealing with her injured boyfriend Johnny, a party to plan and to top it off a bunch of magical creatures are camped out in her backyard. Talk about some crazy stress, when will they girl get a break.I enjoyed this story. The cover art really popped. I loved the greens and blues. In the last book Persephone was dealing with the fairies and now she is dealing with the aftermath of the battle. To say poor Persephone has her hands full is an understatement. Arcane Circle was good story, an excellent addition. Action packed story, I definitely enjoyed this one more, compared to the last book. I think Urban Fantasy fans will eat this one up! The Battle with the Fairies is over, Johnny is recovering from his injuries, Menessos is "unconscious", Persephone is back home ... what else could happen? Well, tomorrow construction starts on her new addition and barns for the elementals and Beverley's birthday is coming up, but wait, who's at the door?Seriously, I could just keep going for all the things that go on in these books and I love it. Never a dull moment. Johnny and Seph are as great as ever. I just love them together. In my review on the prior book, I mentioned being concerned that there might be a bit of an original Anita Blake triangle happening but so far that has been kept to a minimum. Thank goodness. Don't get me wrong, I like Menessos ... he adds a certain charm but he is way too manipulative and I just can't really trust him. I love Mountain and all the animals especially Thunderbird. I'm hoping something great comes out of that. And Eroll ~ loved him at Beverley's birthday party. That was perfect. I wasn't crazy about what the Rege and Omori did to Seph but he sure got what was coming to him. The whole part with the “Arcanum” was really intriguing. I'm not sure where LR is going with this in regards to Johnny but I hope only good comes out of it.Favorite line:“Doesn’t Eva have warm and eager flesh?” “Of course. But the sweet thrill wanes somewhat when eagerness is so easily elicited. The succulent bliss of the moment is lost.” Johnny could’ve written a whole song around that one sentence, so I committed it to memory.
What do You think about Arcane Circle (2010)?
Was really good but not a "could not put down" book.
