Burned (Fever #7) by Karen Marie Moning

Burned

MrsLeif's Review

I waited two years for this!
How come after finishing the book and get some answers I feel like I have a thousand more?
Only KMM can do this to me.....
I'm beyond frustrated. I want the answers now.
I do have to say, I loved this book.
Here are some of my impressions:

Burned begins pretty much were Iced ends. Lack of communication within our main heroines makes Dani run towards danger instead of talking to Mac about Alina. 

Mac's POV is predominant in Burned. Mac is dealing with Dani, the new Dublin after the Hoar Frost King attack, a memory which keeps on slipping her and the Sinsar Dubh in which she's trying to get rid off. She can't let the book take over or innocent people will get hurt. She also has a cloud of Unseelie following her and she smells bad. Not our pink loving Mac or our Mac 2.0.

"You're not living anymore, Rainbow Girl"

Dani is lost for a while.

We get a new player. A new sidhe-seer is in town and wants to get the Abby for herself. Her name is Jada and she seems to be a powerful human. She has a hit list and some of the people we love are in it.

The Nine are still trying to keep order.  Ryodan is gathering information as best as he can while trying to find Dani. 

Christian MacKeltar is dying daily in the hands of the Crimson Hag. 

A new Unseelie Princess makes her presence known and I kind of feel bad for Lor.

Kasteo, you are a mystery I can't wait to unravel or should I say Kat got your tongue?

Jo, I wasn't thrilled about you on Iced but now, I'm completely on board where KMM is taking your story.

Lor, I think you finally found your match. Blonde is so yesterday!

Daku, where are you?? 

Fade, what's your deal?

Jericho Z Barrons- JZB you are still my favorite Nine. You still stop me in my tracks. I love the way you are and don't apologize about it.

Dreamy-Eyed guy- you are back!!! I missed you since you remind me of Ian Somerholder. 

Cruce- stayed down buddy. Me no like you anymore. 

Unseelie Princes - I HATE YOU.

Dageus MacKeltar- I have my own theory about you.

I know some readers are frustrated about Mac being the protagonist. I'm not one of them. I love Mac and JZB and through Mac I was able to learn tons about other characters including Jericho. I have complete trust in KMM to deliver a perfect ending when she is ready. Despite the above, I did miss some Dani/Ryodan action. Bet, we get some in the next book. A girl can only hope. 

Favorite scene: Gotta go with JZB and his beast presenting Mac with a gift........

5/5 Fangs

Iced (Dani O'Malley-Fever #6) by Karen Marie Moning

This is part 6 of the Fever Series. Recommend reading them in order.

Dani O'Malley is a fourteen year old girl who is leaving in Dublin after the Wall fell. The Fae are everywhere and she is trying to kill them all. Her Sword of Light and Mack's weapon are the only two tools that can do it.  She has many powers, super hearing, super speed and likes to think of herself as a super hero.
Ryodan is interested in Dani. He forces her to start working for him. She agrees because a friend's life is in danger.
Dani has many hiding places and she has some in common with Dancer.
Dancer is human, super smart, handsome geek a few years older than Dani. He has secrets we don't know about.
And to close the future romance circle we have Christian MacKeltar who is becoming an Unseelie Prince and seems to be obsessed with Dani.
In the middle of all this testosterone, something very dangerous is killing humans and Fae. People and places are being frozen and dying. There is a race to stop this before the world gets destroyed.
I gotta be honest here. I didn't like Dani in earlier books. With trepidation I started Iced and discover that I really liked the book. Ryodan is a super alpha male. KMM writes Dani in a way that you forget she is only 14. Can't wait for her to get older and see who she picks. Christian is a danger that you like to have around and Dancer he is the human boy holding secrets we need to know.
Why do I have to wait longer for the second book.

Spoiler Fangalert: I love that Ryodan bit her and now he can tell where she is at. Love the JZB cameo and can't wait for Mac's confrontation.

I hear a guttural sound followed by a weak sigh and look back at the bodies.

“I’m going to kill the kid,” Barrons says faintly.

Ryodan makes a burbling sound like a bloody laugh. I don’t think he even has the parts left to laugh with. “Get in line.”
