Sweep with Me by Ilona Andrews

by Leave a Comment

Spoiler warning! This is the fifth story in the Innkeeper Chronicles series, and this review may contain spoilers for previous installments. If you want to start at the beginning, Clean Sweep is the first book. For Innkeepers, the biggest and most sacred holiday of the year is the Treaty Stay, which commemorates the ancient treaty between the first Inns, their intergalactic guests, and the agreement to keep humans safe and completely unaware of the presence of alien visits to Earth. During a Treaty Stay, Inns have to open the doors […]

Trying desperately to get enough reviews for my double Cannonball

Sapphire Flames, book 4 in the series (novellas only count as half instalments) and the continuation of the series came out in August (on my birthday – thank you, House Andrews, for your benevolence!). In the months leading up to that release, I wanted to re-read the previous books, so everything was fresh in my mind.

In a world where magical abilities bring wealth, power and possibly even fame, Catalina Baylor has reluctantly become the head of House Baylor and the main investigator of her family’s detective agency, after her […]

Update: Read the published full length novella and oh boy. I loved it. I loved it! I loved that Ilona Andrews gave us Maud’s POV at the beginning, prior to her going off with Arland to his House’s planet. We get to see how she carried herself more prior to Dina finding her and Helen. We also get to see her first impressions of Arland and Sean. And we even get to witness them sparring. I loved seeing the illustrations in full cover in my […]

Grandma flexed her arm. “Ride or die.”

Sapphire Flames: A Hidden Legacy Novel by Ilona Andrews

Diamond Fire: A Hidden Legacy Novella by Ilona Andrews

Sapphire Flames was a nice way to return to the Ilona Andrews fold. I was unhappy with the final Kate Daniels book and stopped reading Ilona Andrews for many months. I did buy the novella, Diamond Fire, but I was still too mad about Magic Triumphs to really get into it. When Sapphire Flames was released, I reread the novella and then dove into the novel. And then I went back and reread White Hot and Wildfire. I would not suggest trying to read these books […]
