review 1: Blood of the Sorceress by Maggie Shayne 4 STARSBlood of the Sorceress is book 3 in The Portal series. It does a good job tying up the loose ends and filling in the blank spots. Thier is a few love scenes in the book that I skipped over. Thier was plenty of drama,romance,magic and action.The characters that in previous books that I really did not care about I learned to care and see why they acted that way. The new characters especially Gus and Sid I liked.Demetrius is now free naked and alone. He only has the three items that the first two witches used to hold part of his soul with him. Demetrius finds a empty cottage and takes clothes,a bus ticket to New York, and some money.He ends up living on the street with a old homeless man Gus his only friend. Who does not really b... moreelieve his story.Lilia can only be brought into the world by Demetrius using his gifts and powers. Then she only has a short time to convince him to give up his powers and imortality to live on earth with her till they die a natural death. She can not tell him that if he does not agree to give up his powers and accept the part of his soul she holds by a certain date they both will die.Demetrius and Gus are dreaming what they would do if they won the lottery when the knife and the chalis started to glow. A voice in his head told him what to do. When he followed the voice Lilia appeared naked into the alley with him. He ran from the witch into a drunk driver.Who was a really rich and wanted to run for public office soon. So he gave Demetrius a mansion to live in for a year. Stock in his company, house staff for 3 year and money to take care of thier needs in arizonia.Same time that Lilia came to earth so did the wizard who cursed Demetrius and killed the 3 witches. He came and took over the Priest who was in a comma body. He Plans to stop them again.I did not put the book down unless I had to till it was finshed. If you have read the first 2 books of the series this is a must have to see it closed. Hopefully you will like it as well too.I was given this ebook to read in return asked to give honest review from Netgalley.01/22/2013 PUB Harlequin MIRA ISBN-10: 0778314219 352 pages
review 2: I received a review copy of this book through Netgalley. So glad I did because I don't know if I could have been able to handle the wait after finishing Daughter of the Spellcaster - which I also loved.This entire series is amazing. It has everything I want in a book - lots of magic and action, good guys fighting evil beings, a beautiful, intense romance that transcends through time (3,500 years). I liked the characters so much, by the time I was finished with the book, I felt like they were my friends. I hated reaching the end of this book. And even though this book is exciting and entertaining, there's also a much deeper message contained in the story - about learning to appreciate life, and valuing what we have rather than craving something more, because in the end that "something more" might be meaningless. I like when a book does that: makes me think and arrive at some deeper understanding about life and love and all that. less
