Publisher's Summary
Immortal Faerie and ancient feuds, secrets and sacrifices - a thrilling new chapter in the bestselling Fever series begins, featuring Dani, Ryodan, and other beloved characters, as they battle to save Dublin from the rising of a terrifying evil determined to enslave the human race.
There is no action without consequence.
Dani O'Malley was nine years old when the delusional, sadistic Rowena transformed her into a ruthless killer. Years later, Dani is tough and hardened, yet achingly vulnerable and fiercely compassionate, living alone by her own exacting code. Despite the scars on her body, and driven by deeper ones carved into her soul, no one is more committed to protecting Dublin. By day she ensures the safety of those she rescues, by night she hunts evil, dispensing justice swiftly and without mercy, determined to give to those she cares for the peace she has never known.
There is no power without price.
When the Faerie Queen used the dangerously powerful Song of Making to heal the world from the damage done by the Hoar Frost King, catastrophic magic seeped deep into the earth, giving rise to horrifying, unforeseen consequences - and now deadly enemies plot in the darkness, preparing to enslave the human race and unleash an ancient reign of Hell on Earth.
There is no future without sacrifice.
With the lethal, immortal Ryodan at her side, armed with the epic Sword of Light, Dani once again battles to save the world, but her past comes back to haunt her with a vengeance, demanding an unspeakable price for the power she needs to save the human race. And no one - not even Ryodan, who would move the very stars for her - can save her this time.
3,141 years ago a shooting star fell from the sky and headed straight towards Ryodan who stood on the beach. He expected to die but it missed him by a few feet lol. When he drew near to it he found it was searing hot but turned it over and saw 3 words etched on it: I'M OKAY I'M
I didn't like NOT knowing what the heck it meant and it isn't until the very end that we understood what those obfuscated words were about. So Good!
The next chapter isn't any different. When Dani is in the cemetery she is bewildered when she sees a bunch of shadowy black things coming out of the ground.
I love a happily ever after and High Voltage is one of them. I love that Karen Marie Moning knows how to write an amazing paranormal romance story. The love between Ryodan and Dani and Barron's and Mac is so beautiful.
Oh and Shazam, the Hel-cat is a mystery also. I'd hated Shazam until I learnt who it really was then I LOVED IT ALL!
I also wish I had a T-shirt like Dancers that says: HOLY SHIFT, LOOK AT THE ASYMPTOTE ON THAT MOTHERFUNCTION!
Dani notices the veins in her arms are turning black and is deadly to the touch. She marvels about how she is a weapon but when one of her sister sidhe-seers is killed accidentally, she finds it hard to accept. That is just a taste of what is inside the pages of High Voltage. It was fun and I enjoyed reading and listening to this book because I missed the Dani I loved so much from Iced but not the Jada. I know Ryodan did as well. He calls her Stardust. How lovely it is to call her that!
I love the Hunters too!
We got enemies. Papa Roach aka Gustaine is back who hasn't changed. Balor the Soulstealer, don't know much about, and a new one. AOZ pronounced Ahhhhs. He is an Old Earth god who casts a spell on Dani by tricking her, the little rat.
Inspector Jayne is back. He used to be the head of the old Garda, Dublin's police force but now is a Fae. Christian makes an appearance as well. *sigh. I love him. Both were once human now turned Unseelie.
I should mention Kat the favourite of the sidhe-seers is back with her child Rae. Sean O'Bannion her husband is still lost. Oh! and Lor! I almost forgot :)
