About this book

Something is wrong with the dead in Inferno...it's time to call the professionals.

Death magic meets fae attitude in this sexy new PNR, perfect for fans of K F Breene and Linsey Hall who love their stories with a side of sassy ghosts, demi-gods, and necromantic chaos.

Tareal Vanth, a demi-fae necromancer, was having a regular day of cleaning up bodies, taking out murdering trash, and pissing off local authorities…he should have known that peace and quiet wouldn't last in a city like Inferno.

Now, an actual Reaper called Elektra is on his doorstep, demanding his help to stop a renegade necromancer from tearing the Veil apart and unleashing an undead army.

He wants to tell her that it's not his problem, but Elektra's death magic sings to him like a siren song, and his fae mating instincts are getting more frustrated by the second.

They are going to need more than the usual tricks to figure out where the rogue necromancer is hiding, even if that means going to disreputable magicians, lost family members, and the dragons themselves to demand they get off their golden asses to save their city. What could possibly go wrong?

Please note that each story in the 'Inferno Universe' is completely standalone, and what links them together is that they all take place in the same city, so enjoy them in any order! They also contain violence, swearing, and spicy scenes.

Delightful

Let me tell y’all, Vanth and Elektra were, you guessed it, electric. This story’s roots were the most fascinating in the Inferno world to me. I hadn’t heard of any Etruscan mythology before, and having it be included in this book was rad. The premise was so engaging, with characters you can’t help but love and that signature Alessa spice that always hits. Inferno is spectacular. )

Enjoyable

Another good story in this series even with it being a bit different than the first three. The change in power dynamics was fun and I liked the addition of the fey lore. The only thing is that what was called a Selkie sounds a lot more like a Kelpie what with the fresh body of water and the hooves. )

Fantastic!

Great plot, well drawn characters with exciting chemistry between the love interests. I was riveted from the first chapter. Another excellent adventure from Alessa Thorn. ) One person found this helpful

This was very well done and enjoyable. But it better not be the end. We need Galen’s story that was teased so nicely and we haven’t had a dragon story yet. You can’t just introduce us to the dragons finally and not give us a dragon story for inferno! )

Over abundance of sex

The main storyline was interesting and engaging. The climax was kinda blah, and I found the sex scenes excessive and skipped them all. This an issue in all four stories in this series. )
