The Dying Art of Magic

Natalie
Gibson
Genre: 
Paranormal

Nathalia is dead after committing suicide, yet she appears to be alive and awake. She is also being hunted by beings that want her and her blood. The only way to escape them is to run. With the help of Eiran, her faithful guardian, she is able to narrowly escape the evilness. Each time Nathalia runs from the beings that constantly chase her, including Eitan, Eiran is always there. When Nathalia learns of the connection between Eitan and Eiran, she realizes that she has strong feelings for them both of them. Can she save her friends, the Daughters of Women, from Eitan and the beings that want them dead? 

The book amazingly brings together humans, Nephilim, gods, goddesses, werewolves, zombies and vampires in a fantastical tale. They all live harmoniously together until evil destroys that harmony. Some of the characters and even the realm itself is at times hard to imagine. This book is second in the series and really can’t stand alone. To actually understand the world and the characters, the first book needs to be read. Nathalia, despite her being dead, is a feisty, willful, independent heroine who, even though she needs Eiran, can still fight her own battles. Her sense of humanity making her easily relatable. Eiran might be winged, but he is a wonderful hero. Readers will be able to identify with the strong female leads’ empowerment and how they are able to triumph over their baser needs and also fight against beings much more deadly than they are.
