Review: Hunted by Magic (The Baine Chronicles Book 3) by Jasmine Walt

Hunted by Magic by Jasmine Walt
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Excellent Plot

The third book in this series builds seamlessly on to the first two. The tension is ratcheted higher between all three races with the disappearance of the Chief Mage. Iannis didn’t reach the Convention being held in the capital and there is no trace of how and where he disappeared in a vast area that was flown over by dirigible.

After his disappearance his council decide to take the opportunity to take advantage of his absence. Sonaya is threatened with arrest and forbidden from seeking out Iannis. Of course this does not stop her, especially with the charm that links them to help her find him. She calls on help from her allies and sets off to find her Master.

There is a lot of action in this book, as there was in previous ones, but it also covers some character progression and history. In particular we find out more about Fenris and Iannis, their friendship and their history. We also look at Iannis’ deeper motivations and feelings. There are tidbits of hints about Mage history and culture that are dropped casually through this book too, which is always of interest.

I really enjoyed this book and the tension has been cranked exponentially for what comes next in a city that has been betrayed by it’s ruling class.
