Description

The thrilling new sequel in Alma Katsu's unforgettable IMMORTAL trilogy I turned to Luke and reached for him. My blood felt as though it had seized up in my veins. "Lanny, what is it" Luke asked. I clutched his lapel desperately "It's Adair. He's free." FOR 200 YEARS SHE'S BEEN HIDING He gave her immortality. She tried to destroy him. Now he is searching for her. They must not meet. Or there will be a RECKONING

Reviews

Katsu's brilliant series second will utterly enchant you. The story is told in such a distinctive voice, you won't be able to stop thinking about it. The characters will delight you, horrify you and instil hope ... It's one of this reviewer's favourites so far this year. * Romance Times *
Having fallen for Almas writing in her first release The Taker I really couldnt wait to spend more time with her as her immortal existence was revealed a chapter at a time. Add to this Almas identifiable writing style, a great ability to bring the reader to the heart of the tale and backed up with a solid supporting cast made this tale a real joy to spend time around. Great stuff. * Falcata Times *
The more I read this series the more I love Alma Katsus writing. She is a mystery/paranormal/historical fiction mastermind. Shes got three genres going on here and doesnt drop the ball once if you havent picked up this series yet, go out and find a copy of book one, The Taker, immediately. If youve already read (and loved) The Taker you will not be disappointed by The Reckoning. It is a sequel that is every bit as good as the first. * hookedonbooks.com *
I loved the multi-tapestried feel of these novels its an utterly readable blend of supernatural-powered fantasy, historical fiction, and existential horror remarkable. Romance, fantasy and mainstream fiction fans alike will be swept away by this brutal tale of (immortal) love gone wrong. Highly recommended for readers who enjoy novels like A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness, Diana Gabaldon's Dragonfly in Amber * Barnes & Noble *
Enticing, sensual beyond any other novel read in years within this genre, and thrillingThe Taker is recommended for any reader who wishes to lose him/herself in a strong historical horror tale that transcends the genre with ease. * Horror World *
