High Voltage | Karen Marie Moning
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.

This is the love story between Dani O'Malley and Ryodan, added on to what was the end of the Mac Lane series for what reason I don't know. Problems: Dani became intellectually mature before being emotionally mature, which makes for some seriously cringey (although I admit sadly relatable) scenes. Also, f&#k Ryodan, the powerful, manipulative, ruthless, absurdly rich guy that Dani inexplicably puts up with. More romance than fantasy, sadly.

Ladies, what would you do to a bossy, secretive, manipulative man who told you to "clarify your emotions" and tried to "correct" your sense of who you were angry with?! I still like the book and the series, but seriously, Moning! Enough with strong women characters letting men get away with this BS.

Enjoying a lazy Friday off while the rain patters outside. I have found a new excuse to eat my mug cake more often--I decided to package it as a dry mix for holiday gifts and of course that necessitates experimenting with variations! I like this book but it has problems. There is a definite patriarchal, old powerful man knows best for the females in his life theme that really raises my hackles. This author tends to lapse into that.

EclecticBookLover I'm listening to the fever series and I just finished book 2. I'm not sure I'm enjoying it as much as the first time I read it. I'm not crazy about the narrator which could be part of the problem. I wanted to refresh my memory so I can read some of the newer books, but now I'm not sure I will. 2y
LitStephanie @EclecticBookLover how far did you get the first time? The book before this one, the last Mac Lane book, was really good and worth getting to. This one is a purely Dani book. I didn't really enjoy the other Dani book, I think called Iced (it is gross how all these older guys are lusting after a super immature, annoying 14 year old girl) but I still really like the rest of the series. 2y
EclecticBookLover I think I got as far as Iced and it was ok, not a big fan of that one. Then I tried listening to Bured but forgot so much I gave up. 2y

Reflecting on something that hurts you only prolongs your pain, and when death is involved, the pain is often compounded by a relentless sense of guilt that attacks the moment you start to heal, as if duration of grief somehow proves the depth of your love for the person you lost.

Let's get some reviews off the list.

I'm rely wishing I would have stopped after 5. I did it for years but noooooooo I had to finally finish the series 🤦‍♀️

Was this the worst book ever? No. Did I need this book to be written? Absolutely no. I'm not a spin off reader. I like my original stories and the direction that Dani has taken is just...fucking weird. I...don't love it. At all. The Ryodan thing is still icky too.

One more to go

FantasyChick This is also my #doublespin for the month so yay for checking that off the list! #bookspinbingo #awesomeaugust #seriesread2021 @TheAromaofBooks @Andrew65 @TheSpineView 3y
Andrew65 Well done 👏👏👏 3y
TheAromaofBooks Great progress!!! 3y
TheSpineView Way to go!🌞 3y
LitStephanie Just finished this one and feel the same way about this being a spinoff and the Dani/Ryodan thing being gross. 😆 2y

Like “Iced” High Voltage is told in Dani‘s point of view.
1. Pretty much everything is evolving becoming super powered except for humans
2. The ship we‘ve all been waiting for finally surfaces….. along with a lot of emotions and a huge surprise 😱😰
3. Christian is crossed off my shit list for now. I‘m becoming fond of the lad.
4. The fairies are too quiet. Shits def about to hit the fan. Grabbing lots of snacks before #11.

My first 5 star book of 2020! This is book 10 in this epic series. I really felt like I got to know Dani. I loved her and Ryodan so much, but it‘s really the continuation and evolution of Dani as a badass.

10/10 Much more in depth story of Dani. I sincerely hope the author writes more stories about the individual characters in this series! Very well written and impossible to put down.

Here‘s a collection of signs from my #LitsyWalkersBingo today. It‘s a little surprising to me how many folks still have up their Beto signs from the Nov election. It‘s hard to let go I guess. 2 miles today, even though it‘s drizzling. It was nice to walk anyway.

Kaye 👍🏼🌟. Good job ! 6y
Soubhiville @kaye can I count these as “street signs?” I just looked at the bingo card, didn‘t realize it specified... 6y
Aloisi_tribe My daughter was finally old enough to vote for the November elections and she voted for Beto. She still has his campaign sign hanging up in her bedroom window in her apartment except she crossed out Senate and wrote “President 2020.” 6y
Soubhiville @Aloisi_tribe I‘m behind that idea! 6y
Kaye Sure those are totally fine Soubhi 6y

I admit it I was never a Dani-Ryoden shipper, I put off reading this one when it came out. The beginning dragged a bit for me, but then it started to click & I speed through. Dani‘s grown so much, we got info & some resolutions regarding Dancer, Christian, Kat, Sean, and even about Ryoden himself. Who would have guessed he‘d end up being more open & forthcoming, or that KMM would be able to surprise me with a character‘s development again!

Wow this book was so good! I honestly never liked Dani very much but she‘s definitely come a long way from that obnoxious fourteen year old we first met. I love the bad ass woman she‘s become and Ryodan was exactly as amazing and sexy and romantic as I thought he would be😍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

CoverToCoverGirl Sadly I could never get into this series 😢 but I love her original highlander series. 7y
Daughter-of-words @CoverToCoverGirl her highlander series is one of my faves!❤️ The Fever books are very different, more urban fantasy and much darker. The characters from the highlander series make a few cameos throughout this series though😊 7y

I love getting Danny‘s story and learning more about who she is now as a woman. She has been through so much and it‘s so amazing how she hasn‘t let it turn her bitter. I enjoy seeing her interact with Ryodan and I love them together! Danny never fails to make me laugh.

I missed Mac and Barron‘s though and hope the next book is about them. KMM is amazing and the world she has made just amazes me.

I was right, I‘m up too late, needed to finish this one before I could sleep and [Oprah voice] I LOVED IIIIIT!!!

So, this was all about growth and change and acceptance and I frankly think it‘s KMM‘s best in a while. It was more traditional romancey, but still lots of ass kicking. There seem to be split opinions on it, but for me, this was a fantastic entry in the series and actually has me excited to see where it goes next. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Posh_Salad..AKA..LazyLimaLife I stopped reading when Dani got aged up. Was that a bad decision? 7y
Owlizabeth @LazyLimaLife I almost did, too! I‘m glad I stuck it out, though. If you get a chance, I‘d pick them up again. 7y

#BookMail looks familiar today 😊 Before she posted a link where we could get more than just her signature, I had pre-ordered this signed copy from B&N. Instead of canceling this one I decided I would keep the one where she congratulated me on the birth of Winter, and give this to one of my friends. I also ended up ordering another one of these to have delivered to another friend. I love that it is not a stamped signature like they sometimes do.

#BookMail 🙌 I received High Voltage in the mail today!!! It came out on Tuesday, but so worth the wait ❤️ This is the second time one of her books came out very shortly after having a Baby, and I cannot wait to pass these on to my girls when they are older 😊 Kaysen, Winter, and I are very lucky KMM does special signings.

booksandsympathy Wonderful! I am looking forward to reading this book, but I have other books I need to read first(2 borrowed from an employee, 2 from the library). So it will have to wait. Congratulations on the healthy birth of your new baby! 7y
