Trickster

(Angelbound Lincoln, #3)
Published by: Monster House Books
Publication date: February 25th 2020
Genres: Fantasy, Paranormal, Young Adult

***A hilarious adventure after the events of Angelbound SCALA … and it’s all from Prince Lincoln’s point of view!!!***

With the drama of the Soul Towers and Lucifer’s Orb behind them, Myla and Lincoln look forward to sharing some quality time. Perhaps they’ll even do a ‘regular couple thingie’ like a dinner date. Or they could kill more demons together. Myla isn’t picky.

Then a trickster gets released inside Antrum’s secure borders. And by trickster, we’re talking a giant orange monkey with magical powers and a love of causing drama with uptight thrax.

Looks like date night is on hold.




My Review:


The Earl of Acca has discovered a portal to another world called the Primeval and as everyone probably knows that opening a door to another world is not a good idea. When the Earl opens this door way he unleashes a very evil wizard who steals the life-force from little children. This evil force/Contagion comes through as a tree.

This evil force is so powerful that no one is brave enough to go after the wizard even if it means saving their children. Well no one but two of our favorite characters of all time Prince Lincoln and his girlfriend the Great Scala, Myla Lewis. Lincoln is the High Prince of Thrax and part-angel and Myla is a quasi-demon.

The only way to stop this wizard is to cross over into the land of Primeval and chase down this evil force of nature. Myla has the help of an invisible little friend Peli, a trickster monkey. Peli is helping Myla look for the wizard but his intensions may not be what they seem on the surface. Can this little monkey be trusted? Well just knowing that he is a trickster monkey kind of says it all, does it not?

Peli says he is helping Myla but I am not so sure with some of the things that he does like when he takes Myla on these little journeys in slumber land or dream world. What is he up to? Is he really trying to help her? What is the purpose or connection?

I love getting points of view from both Lincoln and Myla. I like seeing the world through the character's eyes. I like getting inside their heads and seeing the world from their point. Lincoln is a very strong and powerful man but he can be soft when it comes to Myla. He will protect her and keep her safe no matter what the cost may be to him.

But Myla is a strong and powerful person herself. Myla has fought in the arena numerous times. She is not afraid to go up against most any demon or ghoul. Myla is a strong woman that doesn't need a man to take care of her well except Lincoln or so I imagine that is what she lets him believe. Haha…

Oh man I just love this world the Angelbound world and can't ever seem to get enough of it and once I pick up a book in this world I know not to make any plans and know that I need to set aside the whole day for reading because I am not going to lay it down until I have turned the last page with all the adventure and the exciting journey that Lincoln and Myla takes me on. Once I emerge myself in one of the books in the Angelbound world I know I am not going to see daylight again until I have reached the end of the story.

The world building is so grand and just seems to get better and better with each book. I wish I could find the words to actually say how I really and truly enjoy or feel about the Angelbound worlds and the characters too of course and let's not forget the tail as you have to "respect the tail" always.

As always I do highly recommend Trickster as well as all the Angelbound books to all fans of demons, ghouls, angels, monsters, and now tricksters. One click your copy of Trickster today to begin another exciting journey into Lincoln and Myla's world.
