Aimless Witch by Shannon Mayer

Aimless Witch (Questing Witch, #1)

by Shannon Mayer

My name is Pamela, and I am a witch who has no equal.

Or so I thought.

It has been three years since the Destroyer sundered our world. The land is no longer whole, but broken into pieces, most technology gone, and the continents shattered into an unrecognizable place.

New monsters have risen from the depths, adding danger on top of danger. Through it all the humans fight to survive as they compete not only with the supernaturals for food and resources, but their own kind as well.

And me? The caravans of humans I pass, they look to me to save them.

Only I am not the witch I once was. Bound by those who fear my power and my bloodline, I’m lucky if I can light a match with my magic, never mind protect anyone but myself.

Now, the darkness in me rises, offering me all that I want. Freedom from the chains I wear, and the power to make everything right. But if I embrace the darkness I will face a cost I could never have imagined…

I love Pamela and I was very excited to see her getting her own series. And for the most part this was really good. Shannon Mayer is a very talented writer who always creates stories with lots of action, riveting characters and feelings. But that doesn't always mean we'll like the story. In this case, I loved it right up until Mac was introduced.

I just don't like him. I don't like that he's male. I don't like that he's a shifter that's a familiar. And I really don't like him as a love interest. Because I've invested a hell of a lot of time in this series and my OTP is Alex/Pam. To see her waver from that irritates me. It was unnecessary. I put up with the SPOILER FOR RYLEE ADAMSON love triangle between Faris/Liam/Rylee but I came to like Faris. I just can't bring myself to like Mac. So I loved this book right til the end and even though I still flew through pages trying to see what was happening I was a little disappointed. 4.5 stars, rounded to 5 because this book is still pretty damn good.
