Of Flame and Fury is book 9 in the Weird Girls series and the third book which features Taran as the principal character. The focus of this installment was on protecting Celia’s baby. All the powerful supernatural beings came together to ensure the safety of the child that was prophesied as being their saviour. They put plans in place and cast protection spells, however something sinister breached their inner sanctum, placing everyone in a dangerous situation with no hope of survival. However, Taran was not about to let evil win. She would protect those she loved at the risk of her own life.
Throughout the series, Tarin has matured. She still spews snarky comments, but she no longer allowed her fears to rule her. The witches and the vamps no longer look down on her, and her relationship with Gemini has grown exponentially. In this book, readers will see how powerful Tarin had become. Although the story centered on Taran, the secondary characters played an important role in moving the story forward.
The story hit the ground running. Non-stop action, which would leave readers breathless and hanging on to the edge of their seats. The villain’s hunger for power led to the creation of abominable creatures, created for the sole intent to destroy. Any empathy that had developed for this character quickly disappeared.
This installment was driven by action, therefore, the private moments between Tarin and Gemini were few. However, whenever they had these moments, they were tender, sweet and filled with passion.
Conclusion/Recommendation
Cecy Robson treated readers to a heart pounding and an adrenaline pumping story, which had the perfect blend of action, thrills and romance. Of Flame and Fury delivered intense and mind-blowing scenes with a perfect ending, which will leave readers feeling satisfied.
