Description
Meet the smart, sexy — supernatural — women of the otherworld. This is not your mother’s coven...

Kelley Armstrong returns together with the eagerly awaited follow-up to Dime Store Magic. Paige Winterbourne, a headstrong young woman haunted by a dark legacy, is now put to the ultimate test as she fights to save innocents from the much insidious evil of all.. . .

In the aftermath of her mother’s murder, Paige broke together with the elite, ultraconservative American Coven of Witches. Now her goal is to begin a new Coven for a new generation. But while Paige pitches her vision to uptight thirty-something witches in business suits, a extra urgent matter commands her attention.

Someone is murdering the teenage offspring of the underworld’s much influential Cabals — a circle of families this makes the mob look like amateurs. And none is extra great than the Cortez Cabal, a faction Paige is intimately acquainted together with. Lucas Cortez, the rebel son and unwilling heir, is none other than her boyfriend. But love isn’t blind, and Paige has her eyes wide open as she is drawn into a hunt for an unnatural-born killer. Pitted against shamans, demons, and goons, it’s a battle chilling enough to do a wild young woman grow up in a hurry. If she gets the chance.

Customer Reviews
Customer rating is 5 of 5  Paige meets the Cortez Cabal!   2010-03-14
By C. Vigil (Las Vegas, NV USA)
I am a huge fan of this series. In this, the 4th installment, Paige meets the Cortez Cabal, in which her partner, Lucas, is the unwilling heir. This book is filled with suspense and intrigue.

Paige and Lucas "team up" with the Cortez Cabal to help find the killer of the children of all of the Cabal's. In doing so, Lucas and Paige start to understand Lucas' father and accept his role in their lives.

One thing I love about this series, is that every book not only introduces a new character, but they also keep the "older" characters still involved in the story line.

Not a very good book. I was expecting Elene the werewolf to be the main character in every book and was very dissapointed when started reading "Dime Store Magic" and "Industrial Magic".

Industrial Magic picks up where Dime Store Magic left off and like Stolen we get to see all our favourite supernatural characters come together. Like the previous books in the Other World series IM did not disappoint and unlike DM I was not overloaded with mounting disasters. The pace was even, not too quick, not too slow. There were adequate amounts of mystery and action and readers are able learn more about characters we have met before and see characters we never thought we'd meet.

This is the second "Women of the Otherworld" book narrated by Paige Winterbourne. I am still not wild about Paige, as a narrator she is pretty boring - know-it-all and self-righteous. The romance between her and Lucas Cortez is also just meh. Lucas is honest, loyal, dedicated, always fights for a good cause, basically your average nice guy which would make him a great real life partner, but as a fictional paranormal lover he just doesn't cut it IMO. Nevertheless, this book is great, thanks to the plot and a cast of great secondary characters.

The story here is as follows: the Cabal teenage kids are being murdered by a mysterious killer and Paige and Lucas are called on by Lucas's father to help out with the investigation. What follows is an exciting hunt for the perpetrator. During the chase we revisit our old faves from previous books: Adam, Cassandra, Aaron, Jeremy, Elena, and (thank god!) Clayton. We are also introduced to some very colorful new characters: Jaime Vegas - a necromancer, a clairvoyant, Eve's ghost, and even an obnoxious Celtic deity. Sounds crazy? Yes, it kind of is, but somehow it works in this book. The new mythology Armstrong introduces is exciting and entertaining too.

On the negative side, to keep track of so many characters requires a lot of logistics explanations on the author's part, and at times it's just a bit too much work to follow who went where, when, and how. But pretty soon you learn to tune these things out completely. If I am being objective, some cameo appearances turn out to be just that - appearances, without significantly advancing the plot, but because you like these characters, you overlook that as well.

Overall, "Industrial Magic" is a great fast-paced story which re-awakened my interest in the series.

I liked it, but I miss Elena. I say, read it. Armstrong is good.
