Dime Store Magic

Women of the Otherworld, Book 3

De: Kelley Armstrong

Narrado por: Laural Merlington

Paige Winterbourne was always either too young or too rebellious to succeed her mother as leader of one of the world's most powerful elite organizations - the American Coven of Witches. Now that she is 23 and her mother is dead, the Elders can no longer deny her. But even Paige's wildest antics can't hold a candle to those of her new charge - an orphan who is all too willing to use her budding powers for evil...and evil is all too willing to claim her.

For this girl is being pursued by a dark faction of the supernatural underworld. They are a vicious group who will do anything to woo the young, malleable, and extremely powerful neophyte, including commit murder - and frame Paige for the crime. It's an initiation into adulthood, womanhood, and the brutal side of magic that Paige will have to do everything within her power to survive.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"As in Armstrong's debut novel Bitten, this story's special strength lies in its seamless incorporation of the supernatural into the real world." ( Publishers Weekly)

excellent

i love the build up and the storyline. the narrator really brings everything to life.

Not the best

Love the Kelley Armstrong series, however this was a little lame. I am hoping that the rest of the series is not a dime store series.

Best Narrator is Laural Merlington

L Merlington does the best voices, best intonations, best enthusiasm, fear, or sensuality when appropriate!!

Anything but Dime Store Magic

This is one of my absolute favorite stories! I love Paige and Cortez so much. I love Savannah’s wild willfulness. It’s one of the best reads and I’d recommend it any day. 10/10

Interesting Series

First read this book years ago thru my library & got interested enough in Armstrong's Otherworld that I read the others in the series. I've been more interested in Paige & Lucas than Elena & Clay, on the whole. But, in listening to this story today, there were several times "Harvard" Paige was just TSTL and her intelligence did not shine through. I like Merlington as a narrator on the whole, but this recording is not a standout.

This is an amazing series!!!!

I’m not sure what’s turning people off from this book but I read this book. Probably about 13 years ago. I read it the old school way book in hand. And absolutely love the whole series of books. I bought every single one I can’t remember but I believe there are 18 in total. With the other series that are added in. And even 13 years later, it’s still my absolute favorite series I’ve ever read in my life. So take a chance read it if you want but as any other book that you read it’ll be your choice whether you like it or not. My only wishes they would turn into a movie, because the graphics would be amazing. It definitely wouldn’t be another. Goddamn Spider-Man or superhero movie.🤣🤣🤣

Decent story but not one of her best

This was my 4th Kelley Armstrong book…okay but not my favorite.

In the first half of the book the heroine Paige was often impetuous and stupid and I hate a stupid female main character. It felt like a ploy—can’t have the hero and heroine like each other right off the bat so let’s make the heroine fight the hero to the point where she makes one idiotic decision after another. That just felt contrived. Plus I really wanted to slap Savanna for being suchhhhh an obnoxious brat. There were also a lot of loose threads, Why did Lucas show up out of the blue? What was his motivation to twist himself into a pretzel to keep helping Paige in the beginning? What happened to the antique motorcycle he personally restored? Sometimes you get what you pay for and this book was free. Maybe it just needed a better editor to tighten it up. It was fine for a free book but it doesn’t want to make me buy more in this series.

Good Listening

Have read this book before but really enjoyed hearing it. Recommnd this book .

I've always loved this story.

this is probably the my favorite Kelley Armstrong novel. l loved the audio book also.

GREAT BOOK!!

IN DIME STORE MAGIC YOU GET TO KNOW PAIGE WINTERBOURNE A LITTTLE BETTER. IN THIS BOOK SHE HAS TAKEN SAVANNAH LEVINE AS HER WARD AND ENDS UP FIGHTING SAVANNAH'S DAD, KRISTOPH NASH, FOR CUSTODY. YOU ALSO MEET LUCAS CORTEZ, HEIR TO THE CORTEZ CABAL THRONE.
AS I HAVE SAID IN MY OTHER REVIEW THIS IS A GREAT SERIES FOR ADULTS WHO LOVE THE SUPERNATURAL. THE CHARACTERS ARE BELIEVABLE AND LIKABLE. THE CONTENT IS FOR MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY.
