Here goes a mix of quotes from vol 1 and 2 of this series (LOL!): When you get an ARC from one of your favorite authors: But for the initial connection to the main character, a little more background information would have been nice.Ī solid read. Since this is the first of a series (I'm assuming a trilogy), I'm sure this will be addressed in future books. She has a past, but it is just briefly mentioned in the story. The one thing I wish was different was knowing more about the main character, Tori. Three Mages and a Margarita delivered it all. Her writing style never fails to suck me in to the fictional world she has created, craving more of everything.

I literally could not put my Kindle down because I had to know what happened next. Annette Marie writes some of the best action scenes I've read, and she just keeps getting better. I devoured this book in 1.5 sittings (the 0.5 being the little I was able to read during my break at work). I don't know if the similarities are wishful thinking on my part or if the author took inspiration from Fairy Tail, but either way I was SO EXCITED with the connections I was making.

Say hello to the more adult, urban fantasy version of Fairy Tail, one of my FAVORITE ANIMES OF ALL TIME. Magic guilds, Elemental mages and psychics and other magic people, strong sense of friendship and loyalty.what does this remind me of?. Seriously, has anyone figured out how we can jump out of our world into the world of a book? Is there some sort of book Tardis somewhere? Tori has no problem getting herself into trouble in every book in the Guild Codex series, but each one is a complete adventure-no cliffhanger endings.įor real though, has someone invented a book Tardis? It's 100% fun, sassy, fast-paced urban fantasy. Note: The three mages are definitely sexy, but this series isn't a reverse harem. So what's a broke girl to do? Take the job, of course-with a pay raise. Either I'm exactly the kind of takes-no-shit bartender this guild needs, or there's a good reason no one else wants to work here. And the three cocky guys I drenched with a margarita during my trial? Yeah, they were mages. That's the definition of fitting in, right? Their customers were complete jerks, and I was an asshole right back. It went downhill the moment they asked for a trial shift instead of an interview-to see if I'd mesh with their 'special' clientele. Those are my official reasons for answering a wanted ad for a skeevy-looking bartender gig.

Broke, almost homeless, and recently fired.
