This story begins when Alex must help find some magical orbs before the enemies of the supernaturals use it to destroy magic in the world. She must figure out what’s really going on and who’s in charge before it is too late. And with the help of an assassin things may turn out in her favor if she doesn’t get herself killed that is.
This book was a good start to this series. It was very intriguing and had a lot of action, and some romance as well.
I enjoyed the heroine a lot, and I thought she was pretty fierce and had a great sarcastic personality.
I look forward to reading more in this series.

At first I thought Alex was REALLY similar to her twin, Sera, and wasn't that into the book. But then, things started happening and I realised, that yeah, they're both brave and powerful, but are different in some ways. Alex is definitely more 'reckless' as the author likes to remind us, and she usually acts before she thinks, unlike Sera, who is a little more sensible. Alex is just as sarcastic and snarky as Sera, but also a little more quirky, and all of her conversations with 'Slayer' are just hilarious- Alex's logic is a bit.... illogical.
Overall, the book was great and I can't wait to read the next one!

very good, really liking the parallel stories between the two sisters. Good plots, great characters with good dialog.

The Alexandria books in this series are very good. The author does seem to have a very strong affinity for strong, intelligent, and sarcastic women who are very bad at expressing their own needs and/or feelings. The author also seems to like men who are aggressive in their romantic pursuits. That may or may not be to your style. I liked the story and the eventual romantic conclusion, even if I didn't enjoy the entire romantic journey.
The plot itself, the storyline, and the characters are interesting and fun. There aren't any outright sex scenes, but as in most of these Ella Summer's books there are scenes leading up that are detailed enough that you definitely know what is going on. With that in mind, be wary of allowing children to read these books. I would not recommend for anyone younger than 15. It is easy to know what is going on without being able to guess at the endgame (which is rare for me and very exciting).
