Chasing Magic by Stacia KaneMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Yet another engaging development in the life of Chess Putnam. Her adventures keep getting better and her capabilities keep growing in leaps and bounds. I wish she would get some sort of acknowledgement for her achievements or at least redeems herself in the eye of Elder Griffin. The Church sounds too pompous anyway and Chess is better than that.
It is interesting that the more she is required to extend herself in order to save the day, the more she doubts and berate herself. Although that is sometimes an irritating trait of hers, it is also very human and makes us feel her anguish even more. Thank goodness, Terrible is there to anchor her. And oh my, the depth of Terrible's feelings for Chess is just so heart-wrenchingly romantic. It is truly heartwarming to that someone like Terrible, who has faced so much in his own life and stuck in his line of work, capable of such love and emotions, even if he doesn't always show it.
