Wicked Magic by Margot de Klerk

 




Synopsis:


Hunters are supposed to hate vampires—but everyone will betray their people for a price. Nathan is about to discover his.

Nathan is a vampire hunter on the cusp of graduation. He’s been training for this his entire life: the moment he qualifies and joins the rest of his family in their noble calling.

If only it were that simple.

His grades are a mess, his social life is a disaster, and what’s worse, his best friend is a witch! Add to that, his vampire uncle is back in town and his crush might just be supernatural too, and you have one big melting pot of potential parental disapproval. Nathan doesn’t think he can take much more, and then the dark mages come to town.

As bodies begin piling up in the streets, Nathan finds himself pulled deeper into political intrigue and a deadly plot that will pit him against his own family. When the girl he likes comes under threat, Nathan races against time to solve the mystery... well aware that with every step he takes, he comes closer to his father exposing all his secrets.


Review:



Wicked Magic is Margot de Klerk debut novel, it was an incredible good starts for a fantasy series aimed at young people, but it can be appreciate at every age because it's written really well.

Nathan is a vampire hunter trainee, his graduation day is fast approaching but he begins to doubt on the hunters methods. When he runs into some troubles that threaten his friends Nate decides to help them going against every principle his family tought him. Will he save everyone keeping his family n the dark?

I've enjoyed to follow Nate in his search of himself, I liked his personality and his heart of gold. I empathized with him and I felt as lost as him at times because the pressure on him was too much. I'm glad he has such an eclectic and loyal group of friends who help him.

I would have like to have some more of the back stories of the supporting characters, I hope to read about their past in a spin-off kind of book...maybe.

I recommend it, I thought at this story and these characters every time I put down the book because real life needed my attention.
