It was high time I returned to the world of my favourite urban fantasy series and reviewed the next Kate Daniels novel, Magic Burns. I have, at this point, read the whole series many times, but I never tire of it. A re-read again for the review to refresh my memory on the details. And I have to say, with this novel, the dynamic duo that is Ilona and Andrew Gordon (writing under the pen name Ilona Andrews) smashed it out of the park.

Ilona Andrews was not my first encounter with the urban fantasy genre. Not by a mile. I’ve been devouring books of this genre since I was 18 and a friend at uni first introduced me to Kelley Armstrong. I’ll get to the Women of the Otherworld series in due course, but for the first Urban Fantasy series I reviewed, I had to make it my favourite. Magic Bites by Ilona Andrews - the pseudonym of an epic wife and husband duo - is one of those rare books that is close enough to being flawless that you develop an abiding love for the author, and the character, and the series.

An extremely satisfying conclusion to the Hidden Legacy series that well lives up to its name, Ilona Andrews' Wildfire is a scorching romance with a compelling plot and exceptional worldbuilding. Here's my full review.

The Hidden Legacy series had a strong start with Burn For Me but I was concerned that the ending was going to lead to a lot of break up/make up nonsense in book two. I was delighted to find that instead, Ilona Andrews penned a compelling second novel that actually surpassed the first. Intriguing, sexy, in no way annoying. Here's my review of White Hot.

A strong, sassy, magical heroin with a vulnerable streak a mile wide. A slightly mysterious, slightly controlling, seriously hot love interest. An intricately crafted world of magic. And an intriguing mystery at the heart of a fast-paced plot. Burn For Me is a sizzling start to Ilona Andrews' Hidden Legacy Series - here's my full review of book one.

Ilona Andrews’ Kate Daniels is, hands down, my favourite Urban Fantasy series ever. I love it so much it has usurped the Women of the Otherworld Series by Kelly Armstrong, which had previously held the #1 spot since I was 18. Here are all the reasons why (plus what order to read all the books in!).
