I knew that opening the letter from the sorcerer Azar would have deadly consequences.
So we had prepared.
We’d planned.
We knew we might have to defend ourselves, our freedom. And that I might finally get a chance to exact the revenge I kept telling myself I wasn’t interested in exacting.

One of the best things to come out of the pandemic, at least for me, is that I discovered Meghan Ciana Doidge. She writes urban fantasy in sets of interlocking trilogies and I'm completely hooked. I had so much fun reading through the first 20 or so books, that I didn't pause to think about what would happen when I was through all the backlist. This was the first one I had to wait for. It was completely worth it - the first of a new trilogy - but admit to being frustrated that I now have to wait

Awesome addition to the series
Love these characters and the way they grow and evolve. Can't wait to see what's next for Emma, and also for Opal and her friends. ...more

Meghan Ciana Doidge"She has a penchant for bloody love stories"
Emma and Aiden's story tipped the scales to love over blood in this one. Emma experienced so many circumstances of love and family and friendship which contrasted to her own upbringing. The focus was on her relationship with Aiden and the plot that pulled him into dealing with the two sides of his family. I loved watching Emma think and choose rather than having to act/react for survival. I so love this world and the characters' evo ...more

Idols & Enemies – Amplirier Book 4
Emma and Aiden are still adjusting to life without the past to haunt them, or are they?
Unfortunately, Aiden’s parents turn up – both bringing issues with them and then more members of the families, each tearing the fragile webs of family apart. As the story deepens, they discover more powerful spells and magic, some of which is bad and some of which is good.
I don’t want to tell you too much for spoilers, but I will say that Meghan Ciana Doidge is a fabulous writ ...more

Awesomely wonderful!
May I just say fricking awesome!!!
The build up to this Sorcerer showdown with Aiden and his father had had me bring my nails. Hubsters like it's a frickin BOOK!! I looked at him appalled 😮
Add in his brothers, sisters, cousin and mother you know it's going to be an epic smack down 😉
Emma must face one of the Collective on her own turf and invite him in.
I adore all the characters in this series, but Madam Paisley has my heart 💖💖 her antics make me lol.

I love Meghan Ciana Doidge and her writing.
I am always looking for books that hook you within a short number of pages and this author can do it by the second chapter. Emma and Aiden have the house to themselves and get a visit from Aiden's father quickly followed by his brothers. This results in his Mother needing to come with his half sisters. The atmosphere is quickly ratcheted up, but by the end of the book we are reminded of last characters from her other books, so I hope everyone is coming ...more

I've enjoyed all of Meghan Ciana Doidge's books from the cupcake series (where I started) through this one and this was no exception to my enjoyment. I usually keep reading her books until I finish it. I'm retired. :)
She brings life to her characters and she showed the complex relationships that can happen in families. I am looking forward to more stories including maybe a few about the next generation.
Highly recommend this and all of the others. I would suggest with the first Amplifier book, an ...more

As always Amazing
I really enjoy Emma's journey in learning or finding her humanity. Her & Aiden gaining confidence in themselves & each other, their ever expanding family & friends. This recent challenge to there lives is a family affair from hell. The surprise rescue is a total shock & hints at a crossover that's thrilling. Salivating for #5! ...more

I love Emma and Aiden. There's enough family drama in this book to make readers angsty. I love how they manage to put each other first amongst the mess that has erupted. We can all learn from their relationship!

Where to begin...1) the verbal volleys in this, of all MCD's books, are second to none. Clever, witty, quick, biting, delightfully wicked where needed and powerful when wanted. 2) The scope of Emma's story has grown, ebbed, flowed, but constantly grown and, while I have not embraced her like the Dowser (but really, Wisteria and Kett [cry eyes emoji]) she has me riveted.
Cannot wait for more, MCD! Let's go! ...more
