Thank you to Jodi Taylor, the publisher and Netgalley for a free copy of this ebook in exchange for a review.
I don’t really believe in the concept of favourites – there are so many amazing books in the world, why focus on only one? But if you forced me to name my favourite author is, Jodi Taylor would likely be the one. I’ve read almost everything she’s written, and I intend to keep doing so.
The Elizabeth Cage novels aren’t my usual genre - they lean into horror, and I’m not great with that - but because it’s Jodi, they’re packed with humour and brilliant characters, so I endure it! Elizabeth Cage seems, on the surface, like an ordinary woman you might meet in a UK book group or supermarket. Yet she can see things others can’t, and yes, she might be a tad immortal, but other than that…! After the disaster of the previous Christmas, she and Jones try to move on, though curveballs inevitably arise.
And that’s exactly what we get here: Elizabeth Cage and Michael Jones battling supernatural forces, aided by the gorgeous Iblis and, more reluctantly, the powerful Melik. The story ties back to Greyston – brilliant, since I loved it in Book 2, and separately introduces the tragic ghost of a woman cast out by her family. Overall, this book expands Elizabeth Cage’s mythos, and it’s a joy to revisit her world. Highly recommended!

Entertaining as always, and a very satisfying conclusion to a number of elements, while leaving the door open for more.
