Book Summary:
Fox D'Mora is a medium. Or rather, he works hard to make people believe he is one. Unfortunately, this isn't what he is most famous for. You see, Fox is the godson of Death himself. That garners a certain level of attention, whether you want it or not.
Viola Marek is a vampire. But she wants to be more. More specifically, she wants to be a successful real estate agent. However, it can be challenging to sell a house when the ghost residing in it refuses to leave. Enter Fox D'Mora.
My Review:
I'll admit that I was more than a little bit curious about how Masters of Death would go, given all the talk about Olivie Blake's last story. Okay, I may have even been slightly hesitant, having not loved the second novel in the Atlas Six series.
That said, I found Masters of Death a delight and a half to read. It was fun, quirky, and incredibly unique. It played around with multiple mythologies and deities, creating a world where they all happily (grumpily?) compete in a dangerous gambling game.
The various paranormal characters in Masters of Death made it worthwhile. Viola is one of many characters (though I did enjoy learning about the lore from her vampiric twist). It fueled the chaotic fire, and I loved every minute of it.
Highlights:
Magical Gambling
Multiple Mythologies
