Q & A with Dannika: Was the Mageri universe something you set out to create from the beginning or was it happenstance that then led to all the other series you’ve written being in the same universe? It wasn’t a plan from the start, but I was immediately drawn to the fresh supernaturals and […]
I’ve been reading the series from the library and enjoying the audiobook version. In fact, Risk didn’t have an ebook at my libraries so I had to enlist Brandee to help with a quote since it’s hard to save quotes in an audio format. Risk is both Simon’s story and an epilogue to the Mageri […]
Shine by Dannika Dark is the final audiobook in the riveting Mageri series. Dannika Dark has become a favorite here at Caffeinated, and this year I devoured the Seven and Mageri series. I am awaiting the next Crossbreed release. This is the final Mageri book, but there are a few books set in their world: […]
Years ago—probably close to a decade now!—I snagged most of Dannika Dark’s Mageri series through some Audible deals, without reading a single one. I was hearing so many overwhelmingly positive things that I was convinced I’d love the books. Fast forward to 2024, and guess what? Still hadn’t read a single one. But thanks to […]
I am a huge fan of Dannika Dark’s Crossbreed Series. Prior to this read-along, I hadn’t considered that it was a spin-off series. I was excited to discover the connection when the Mageri Series was selected as for the Blog’s read-along (Thanks Anne!) and eager to see where it all started. It is only by […]
Twist by Dannika Dark is the second book in her series Mageri which follows Silver, a newly-made Mage, as she navigates the paranormal world around her. Picking up several months after the end of Sterling, Silver is continuing her training as a Learner under her Ghuardian, Justus, and his friend Simon. She is honing her defensive skills as needed, learning […]
I previously read Sterling but it’s been a hot second – or eleven years – and seeing as I want to continue on to the spinoff series, I jumped at the chance to do a re-read with COYER. As always, I’m grateful to buddy read (listen) with Anne and Berls! I’d forgotten much about the world of the […]
I chose this series after a poll and discussions with my team and several friends. The ebook, print or audio are available at most libraries. I have not read any of this series; they were recommended to me by friends. I look forward to finally reading the series. The narrator is also highly recommended. […]
I try not to read reviews for new books. Because I know how that sounds coming from a book reviewer, and I certainly appreciate anyone who is willing to read my reviews, allow me to clarify; I try not to read reviews on books I am already planning on reading. Those books are by authors […]
By accident I discovered the Crossbreed series by Dannika Dark. I can only consider it a happy accident and have no qualms about recommending it to anyone looking for a well-designed urban fantasy world with compelling characters and interesting story arcs. Spellbound is the eighth installment, and picks up right at the cliffhanger which ended […]
