Review: Spells for the Dead

Spells for the Dead by Faith Hunter
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Thanks to Netgalley and Berkley for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.

Oh, Faith, you know I adore your Jane series, but it seems like every review I give for a Nell book, I say I like Nell just a tad bit more. And it's true. I love your Jane Yellowrock series and don't want it to end, but there's just something about Nell's amazing cast of characters. I'm always just as interested in the personal life parts of Nell as I am the case... especially in this one. There were some huge wins in this book for me:

Occam. Anything and everything Occam. #TeamPlantKitty

Mud. Anything and everything Mud. #TeamAwesome

Ayatas Firewind. So much depth and character development in this one. First time I've truly begun to like the man!

Plant people. Yes a bit more history on plant people. :)

The one big loss for me in this book was that I wanted more time with Rick and Margot, and they didn't get much "screen time."

Also, Faith, dear, I'm not quite sure what you've done here, releasing this scary gross deathy-magic/working/energy stuff out into the Jane/Nell world. Terrifying!
