Thirteen starts off with a prologue featuring Elena, then takes us through a lightning-quick view of Eve and Kristof, before catching up with Savannah as she and Bryce meet up with Jeremy, Jaime, and Adam after the explosion at the lab. So, Operation Rescue was successful, now let’s see how Operation Get-the-Heck-Away-from-Here goes…
Not very well, as Jaime and Savannah are hauled off to jail, and barely survive a werewolf-gone-mad and a sorcerer with a death wish. What’s next? Well, they still have an evil megalomaniac to foil, and for that they’ll need friends. Good thing they’ve got some pretty phenomenal ones. The plot from here on out is pretty straightforward, as the good guys work together to thwart the bad guy from attaining his goal. But the story, well, that takes a winding road – one that’s got enough twists and turns to make sure you’re not falling asleep at the wheel!
I love how Kelley Armstrong’s novels can take the expected and imbue it with mystery and surprise, so much so that “expected” turns into an enjoyable journey. And what’s a journey without a cast of characters to travel with? If you’ve read Armstrong’s Women of the Otherworld series, you wouldn’t be surprised when I say I’m going to miss this crew. I remember Paige and Lucas from Dime Store Magic, and they’re still my favorites. Savannah comes a close second – she hasn’t had it easy at all, poor girl, and I’m glad the series finale showcases her growth and maturing. Eve, Jaime, Hope, Elena – all have had their stories shared and devoured. Not too hard to do, when Armstrong’s women are talented, strong, and don’t take sass from anybody.
Thirteen wraps up this series nicely, with plenty of action and emotions. If you’ve read the other books in the series, make sure you’ve read them all before picking this one up. If you haven’t read the other books in the series, start with Bitten. Happy reading!
