Iron and Magic, filled with some of my favorite things. Snark, sparks, witty comebacks, testy relationships, challenging characters, magic, fantastic beasties and romance.

Whew, I finished this at last and can move on to the final Kate Daniels (and then the Julie spin-off). On maternity leave with my first kid, I decided to try more audiobooks.
