Review: Marked by Magic (The Baine Chronicles Book 4) by Jasmine Walt

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

Another Great Installment

This series goes from strength to strength. I love Sunaya’s character and how she is conflicted about her heritage, but still tries to help those that reject her because of it.

Tensions in the city have ramped up significantly, and Sunaya has to return to the palace for her own safety. Her life has been threatened, but she wants to know what’s happening in her beloved city, so goes out under magical disguise. Her encounters with humans, shifters and mages, whilst in disguise, reveal a lot of secrets that help her work with the Chief Mage. She is trying to fight for the rights of humans and shifters against the entrenched opinions of the Mage Council.

At the same time as trying to protect the city, she is trying to control herself. She is in heat and is desperate to avoid having sex with anyone other than Iannis, but at the same time is unwilling to settle for something other than a full relationship with him. It’s a difficult path to tread for a shifter in heat, but it seems she might be getting some help from a mystical source.

This is such a good series, with well rounded and fascinating characters. It’s got a well paced plot, with fun twists along the way. The romance is not the main focus of the series, or even this book, but it is more significant in this particular book after the tension has climbed slowly over the last few books between Sunaya and Iannis. The sex is not overly explicit and the romance aspect is the focus of the relationship.

I highly recommend you read this series if you enjoy either fantasy or urban fantasy. If you do, then this could well be a series you would enjoy.
