Search - Apocalypse Happens (Phoenix Chronicles, Bk 3)

Urban Fantasy by Lori Handeland and Book 3 of the Phoenix Chronicles. This book has so much going on that it's difficult to sum up in a few sentences. Liz Phoenix is the leader of The Light, a group trying to prevent Armageddon. Her group is fractured, and its difficult to know who is still with her. Jimmy, her second in command, seems to hate her for things she's done. Unbeknownst to Liz, she has a traitor in her group. This book has alot of action, and it's almost dizzying. In the end, Liz has to make a sacrifice. The book ends with a great cliff-hanger. Really can't wait to see what happens,next. I will say it took me awhile to get reaquainted with all the characters, since its been so long since reading the first and second books. Good read.

I hate to disagree with the other reviewers and usually I like Handeland but this book didn't do anything for me. I suffered through the second in the series and wish I had passed on this one, I almost quit numerous times. I'm going to pass on any other in this series.....that said, the heroine is still angst filled, loving Jimmy but still having sex with most comers, specifically Sawyer...sorry for the pun. The story is scattered but at the same time the plot doesn't move far forward, really this could have been a short story if you take out some of the hate/love Jimmy angst. My suggestion, use your credits don't waste your money.

This was the best book in this series thus far! A must read if you've read the others, heart wrenching and dramatic. I didn't like the 2nd book as much and almost didn't read this one, I'm glad I did. Can't wait until the next one comes out in April. ENJOY!!
