A Touch of Fever by Nazri NoorMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Jackson Pryde is not good at magic and so is an artificer making magical devices instead. He lives and works in the shadowy bazaar or wonders known as the Black Market. Former schoolmate and now bitter enemies plus neighbour Xander Wright is a mage and he hates all the hammering done in Jackson’s workshop. Then they get a chance assignment which means that they have to team up and as part of that they discover that someone is driving members of the magical community into murderous rages. Can they combine their might and magic through working together to find the source of the so-called Fever and stop it before even more people die including themselves?
What a great start to this new series! I loved Jackson who was such fun with his fast-talking and insecurity whilst also being determined to prove just how great he was and how his profession really was important. Add to that Xander with his snarky comebacks, pride in his magical skills and his determination to be a credit to his family they made a great combination of investigators, crime fighters and overall partners. Lots of cool magic, interesting new wonders set around the Black Market that we were introduced to in the Darkling Mage and Sins of the Father series by the same author. It was great to see them both realise that there really was no real reason for them to be enemies as they had far more in common. I can’t wait to find out what happens next in this series. Contains some M/M sexual content.
