Del's story is going to be even better than Cass'. Roarke Fallon, Warden of the Underworld, is yummy and he's an unusual half breed just like her. He's helped her figure out her real name and many new skills are emerging. Their fates seem entwined and he's just so nice and badass at the same time. I went through this book like it was my favorite candy and I did not want it to end. Can't wait till the next one is out.

Del wakes in Hell, flames flickering around her. She gave up her powers in the battle, and now wakes here without them. But, it was prophesied that she has a power related to death. Though she doesn't understand it, can it help her? Del escapes her captures to return to the one place she wants to be, home, just to be told He will come for her. In her escape, she's cut by a demon's claws that leave poison that will slowly turn her into one of the Ubilaz Demon's after her. Then, the hot looking Warden shows up at Del's door. Trying to clear her name with The Warden and save herself, she's on the search for the Ubilaz demon that escaped when she did, with the attractive Warden.

Laurel is the narrator for Cass's books and is also voicing Del. I do enjoy Laurel's work as she voices each character differently. She gives each their own voice, and hearing Roarke is lovely. And hearing him in the same room as Aidan, veeeeery nice. lol. The girls each have their own voice though they are very similar but they do have their own personality, as do all the characters. Laurel has created a flawless narration here, from my ears.

Del has her own journey to take to learn about her prophesied power relating to death. And could meet her significant other in the process.

Starting this book, the first in Del's series, is like starting all over. If you didn't read/listen to Cass's series you would be safe to start with Del's. You get an explanation of each character and their world at the beginning to place everything.

We meet Roarke here. And he's a special find for Del! Seems to be a perfect fit for Del and her death powers along with who she is attracted to. He does seem very hot! Roarke is special in his own way as well. Being different makes you a target, but he's turned that around to make himself needed. I really like what he is, and so does Del. lol.

This relationship feels very similar to Cass's story with Aidan. Del and Roarke's attraction is so close to the same. And Del has her own journey to go through, like Cass, to learn her abilities and past before she woke with her sisters. Along with worrying about people learning what she is. The cycle feels very identical to Cass's story, if you've read her series.

In the end I very much liked Del's new powers and where she comes to. It's an easy urban fantasy story with a sweet romance blooming, just like with Cass. ( )

What a fun read! I was actually reading a book by another author, but had to put it down so my daughter could finish it. I picked this up on Amazon and was delighted I did so. It's been years since I'd read another Lindsey Hall book. In Magic Undying, Del Bellicourt's definitely dead, or so everyone assumes, until she wakes with a heartbeat and needs to escape the underworld. Once out she's not safe and has been poisoned, a level 5 demon to locate and the Warden of the Underworld to contend with. Her friends Cass and Nix are there to help out should she need them, but most of Del’s time is spent with Roarke, the warden.
What can I say, oh sure, Roarke is gorgeous, strong, smart, wealthy, lethal and totally intrigued by Del and yet he still plans to return her to the underworld since she died AND rules are rules and must be followed. Del's more then a little attracted to Roarke, but has no desire to get dragged back to the underworld. She's attractive, lethal, smart, deadly, and has plenty of secrets she does not want to get out to out to the Order. She also is tied to death in ways yet to be explored.
Del Bellator’s simple life as a Demon Hunter and treasure hunter has come to an end and she must now embrace who and what she is as the "Guardian".

This book was such a fast read which made me think about the afterlife what with the Arthurian legends, crossovers into other belief systems and mythologies. It also had dragons and other supernatural beings and demons. Anyway, enough of that, this book was a great story. I've just picked up the next book in the series, Demon Magic.

Magic Undying by Linsey Hall
Dragon’s Gift: The Seeker Book #1

What fun! Del is definitely dead, or so everyone assumes, until she wakes with a heartbeat and the need to escape the underworld. Once out she is not safe and has poisoning to overcome, a demon to locate and the Warden of the underworld to contend with. Her friends are there to help out should she need them but most of Del’s time is spent with Roarke, the warden.

Roarke is gorgeous, strong, smart, wealthy, lethal and intrigued by Del and yet he still plans to return her to the underworld since she died AND rules must be followed. Del is attracted to Roarke but has no desire to return to the underworld. She is attractive, lethal, smart, deadly, and has plenty of secrets she does not want out. She also is tied to death in ways that are yet to be explored.

This book is a great introduction to the next set of books in the Dragon’s Gift series and, if possible, I believe I like Del and Roarke together better than I liked Cass and Adrian. I am eager to see what will happen when Nix meets her match in the future.

I love a book that makes me think and this one did. With Arthurian legends, Greek mythology and crossovers into other belief systems and mythologies this had me thinking about “what if” and also the idea that many times what one believes “is”. What is the afterlife and is it the same for everyone? Is immortality a possibility? What is or could be resurrection? Could there be dragons and other supernatural beings out there? If I “believe” could that impact reality? Hmm…anyway…this was a great story and fun to continue contemplating even though I have now finished the book.

Thank you to the author for the copy of this book. This is my honest review.
