 Sorceress Jade Crow has been hiding from her ex, an evil sorcerer, in a small town full of non-humans. She hasn't used her powers in ages and didn't plan on doing it anytime soon, at least until she gets a visit from a Justice. Then things start to go south. An unknown magic is trapping shifters into their animal forms and feeding off of their powers. When those she loves are being targeted, Jade does not hesitate to use the powers she has been hiding. Is Jade able to save her friends? Find out in Justice Calling.
Justice Calling is a fast read. It is a good story with some twists. I do wish that it was drawn out a little more. It felt rushed. I also wish that it went a little more into the character's lives (such as why Jade is called the twenty-sided sorceress). It is more of a 3.5 than a 3, but I do not feel like it was a 4 star read. Maybe the other books in the series go further into character backstories, but I'm not interested enough to read more.
