"Kate and Curran have just settled into their new home and their 'low profile,' when a local businessman approaches them with an offer they can't refuse. A mysterious evil has spawned in the nearby forest and is holding a defenseless town hostage. The 'due date' is rapidly approaching. It's exactly the kind of fight the Lennarts can't resist, not for the prize the town offers, but for the people who will surely die if they ignore it. If they succeed, they'll be rescuing an entire community and can build a strong new base for their family and the Wilmington Pack. If they fail...well, fail is a four-letter word. Nothing comes without a price. Now Kate must decide if she has what it takes to pay it."--Amazon.

Super Cool submitted by eileenw on July 7, 2024, 11:45am I love Kate Daniels books! If you're a fan like me, this book is a great addition to the main series. If you haven't read any Kate Daniels books, I recommend going back to the beginning (Magic Bites) rather than starting here.

The "Wilmington Years" were originally announced as a series of short stories and novellas to take place after Kate and Curran have left Atlanta at the end of the big series, but Magic Claims reads a bit more like a novel (yay!). Better yet: The story makes a pivot that suggests that the "quiet" Wilmington Years are over and Kate & Curran are about to set up a different lifestyle: they're doing some titular claiming of land ... will that land become Shinar? A Kingdom for Kate? A second Keep for Curran? These are the questions that make me really excited about this book and the ones to come. But in this story we also get to see some AWESOME prehistoric North American animals, which reminds me that Curran's beast form is based on an actual gray prehistoric North American lion (I always forget that).
