xvicesx 's review for:

City of Light by Keri Arthur
5.0

Update, on completion of series:
I do book binges like nobody's business and I must say that this one was right up there with the works of Ilona Andrews. The world set-up with City of Light is vibrant, with full characters and interesting twists. If there is one thing I'm slightly reproachful about, it's the rather limited development of the relationship between our heroes
SpoilerTiger & Jonas, who end up agreeing to give it a shot by the third book, but don't do much else
especially considering that the arc ends on an optimistic, but happy for now kind of note. I can see the series growing with more installments, as the world has been set and there is plenty left to explore.

I'd like to find out about the city where Nuri's family comes from, what happened next to the kidnapped children and whether rifts are indeed sentient are just a few themes off the top of my head. I'm not sure I'm yet ready to leave Tiger to her bunker when there's more to see of her world and her relationships. Hopefully, Keri's keeping an eye on this and will indulge us.

More interesting than I could have hoped for this to be. Time to go looking for the rest of the series.
