Product Details


Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

Smart-mouthed Eve Levine, a witch with a reputation for breaking the rules, may be dead, but as she proves in this overstuffed paranormal romance (a follow-up to Industrial Magic), she can still raise hell in the hereafter—which, in this case, is a curiously ordinary dimension in which ghosts like Eve and her also deceased former lover, a sorcerer named Kris, can bicker, have sex and use their paranormal powers. The Fates, three elusive sisters, are the rulers of this otherworldly dimension, and they have a job for Eve. If she can defeat a demonic Nix who's wreaking havoc in the human realm by inducing people to kill, she'll earn her wings—literally. The catch: she can't capture the Nix without the powers that angelhood affords. Eve surmounts this hurdle by teaming up with a hunky and humanlike angel named Trsiel, but her quest, which is fraught with obstacles as well as unnecessary distractions, is lengthy and meandering. In addition, Eve's kick-butt-ask-questions-later attitude, while amusing, can be wearying, and the rules of Armstrong's alternate world seem conveniently changeable. Still, those who appreciate heroines with a good measure of spunk, sass and strong-arm savvy will find this a fun if fitful read.

Review

"Armstrong has created a persuasive, finely detailed other-worldly cosmology — featuring sorcery, astral projection, spells, telepathy and teleportation."
Toronto Star

"Those who appreciate heroines with a good measure of spunk, sass and strong-arm savvy will find this a fun if fitful read."
Publishers Weekly

"Mesmerizing . . . the 'other-worldly' atmosphere conjured up by Armstrong begins to seem strangely real. Armstrong is a talented and original writer whose inventiveness and sense of the bizarre is arresting."
The London Free Press

4.0 out of 5 stars Good, but not as good as the previous in the series, April 8 2009
This review is from: Haunted (Mass Market Paperback)
I love the Women of the other World Series. They are so addicting. I think they are some of the best books I have read in the supernatural genre. This one particular book in the series I found harder to follow then the others. It was a little boring because there was too much information on the different kinds of demons and their powers plus the different realms of the after life and what went with that. It was very good aside from the information overload; it had a lot of suspenseful page turning parts that's for sure. I was happy to be done with this one and very happy that I was going to start reading about Elena Michaels again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Her Best Book, Dec 7 2008
By Jamieson Villeneuve "Author at Large" (Ottawa Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Haunted (Mass Market Paperback)
In the fifth installment of the best selling "Women of the Otherworld" series, we are treated to a new narrator. Armstrong, who never does the same thing twice, gave us a Werewolf as the narrator for the first two books in the series: "Bitten" and "Stolen." Then she switched focus to a Witch in "Dime Store Magic" and "Industrial Magic." Now, the focus changes once more and in "Haunted," we are introduced to Eve Levine: former witch and supernatural super power, now a ghost.

Eve Levine first appeared in "Industrial Magic," but now we get to know Eve better, up close and personalAs a dead witch, Eve still holds a lot of power. Part demon, part human, there isn't a lot that can phase Eve; except of course the inability to speak with her daughter, Savannah. Not being able to be with her daughter on the mortal plane, to hold her and comfort her, is a constant reminder of the life she leads.

Still, she is able to look in on her from time to time. Eve's world is turned upside down when she is summoned by the Fates. They want to call in a favour she owes them; previously, the Fates helped save Paige and Lucas, Savannah's guardians, from death. Now they want Eve to repay the favour.

The Fates need Eve's help with catching the Nix, a demi-demon who inhabits the bodies of people on the verge of killing. The Nix gives those people that added push in order to help them carry out murder. Where there is murder, there is chaos, the stuff that the Nix thrives on. The Nix escaped her afterlife hell after centuries of confinement. She is out in the world again and will kill soon.

Eve agrees, never one to let a promise slide. But things are going to be more difficult than she could have imagined. She is given some help on her quest to find the Nix, however, in the form of an angel. Together, they must find the Nix before she kills again. Eve's world will never be the same.

For the Nix knows that someone is on her trail and will strike at all and everyone that Eve holds dear!Each book in the series can be read as a stand alone novel, but the connections are there in each novel to connect the series.

While you may think that the change of narrator from book to book may be difficult to keep up with, it's far from jarring. In fact, that's what keeps the series so fresh and new. We're introduced to different characters in each of the books, only to have them pop up with their own story.

Paige Winterbourne, for example, first made an appearance in "Stolen" only to later appear in "Dime Store Magic." The change in narrator gives us a chance to delve into other characters' minds and gives us a better impression of how far and wide the Otherworld stretches. Each novel gives us a different perspective on the Otherworld, seeing it through different eyes.

"Haunted" is, by far, the best of the series so far. My plot summary barely scratched the surface on the fantastic and amazing things that go on within the pages. It is a supernatural thrill ride, a ghost love story and a white knuckled thriller that keeps you in suspense until the last page.

An amazing addition to the "Women of the Otherworld" series, "Haunted" shows us a world that we cannot begin to imagine and which we will never want to leave.

5.0 out of 5 stars A bit of everything, Jul 7 2005
By Jessica (BC, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Haunted (Mass Market Paperback)
This is my favorite book so far in the series. It has a bit of everything. For those that haven't read any books by Kelley Armstrong yet, what are you waiting for?? She has developed a world far superior than any other "supernatural" series I've read. I just wish there were more books, it looks like her next one isn't set to be released until next year. I definately recommend the entire series.
