Persie Merlin and the Dying Song

Harley Merlin #21

by Bella Forrest

No one knows what the imperious Victoria Jules has in store for them. Though what’s a few monsters, after all? Persie eats them for breakfast, almost literally. But she’s still in for the biggest, most shocking Purge of her life yet, a Purge that will change her life in unfathomable ways.

As the threat of witch hunters circles the Institute, a mysterious illness begins to affect the Institute’s monsters, and a long-disappeared frenemy reappears with intentions unknown. One thing is clear: they’re here to stir up even more trouble among the local monsters-in-residence, and it seems like it’s working on everyone.

Persie finds herself at the epicenter of a brewing war quickly approaching its boiling point—and all her friends, enemies, and we’ll-find-outs are headed for a collision.

Were have you guys read this as I cant find on Amazon

[Linda Clukey · Rating 5 out of 5]

I'm addicted! Is there a support group for withdrawals because I'm really jonesing to read the latest in the Harley Merlin series - Persie Merlin and the Dying Song. Bella is such a great author and she rates in talent and productivity with another one of my favorite authors, Nora Roberts. Bella, where do you get your inspiration? I feel part of the world that Harley Merlin exists in and maybe it's because I live close to San Diego and have visited the many spots referenced in the series. Whatever the source, may it live long and prosper for all of us! Hail to Bella Forrest, Lady of the Long Series Books.

[Alycia Moore · Rating 4 out of 5]

Pretty good! It was kind of hard to remember what had happened in the last book since it came out SO long before this one. Looking forward to #22 and seeing how the story plays out.

[Amber Lester · Rating 3 out of 5]

I enjoy the magic of this series but it’s not an amazing book. It definitely kept me turning pages and I know I’ll continue with the series because I enjoy the characters.

[Christiana Kelly · Rating 4 out of 5]

I'm glad we finally got a chance to read this book after such a long wait. It was good, but not as captivating as some previous books.
