In the aftermath of her mother's murder, Paige Winterbourne broke with the elite, ultraconservative American Coven of Witches. Now her goal is to start a new coven for a new generation. But while Paige pitches her vision to uptight thirty-something witches in business suits, a more urgent matter commands her attention.

Someone is murdering the teenage offspring of the underworld's most influential cabals - a circle of families that makes the mob look like amateurs. And none is more powerful than the Cortez Cabal, a faction Paige is intimately acquainted with. Lucas Cortez, the rebel son and unwilling heir, is none other than her boyfriend. But love isn't blind, and Paige has her eyes wide open as she is drawn into a hunt for an unnatural-born killer. Pitted against shamans, demons, and goons, it's a battle chilling enough to make a wild young woman grow up in a hurry - if she gets the chance.

REVIEW: Number 4 completed of my Kelley Armstrong Otherworld re-read!

Industrial Magic again follows Paige and Lucas as they are unwillingly drawn into Cabal politics by the murder of several children by an unknown supernatural. This book introduces several important characters for the first time – most importantly the Necromancer Jaime Vegas. The werewolves also make an appearance in this book, which I loved.

This book was long, but I didn’t feel that it dragged. It was a fast-paced book with a lot going on, and it kept me interested all the way through. I love Paige and Lucas, and as a political science major who loves seeing politics in books, I loved the inside look we got at the Cabals and the politics that run them.

I really enjoyed this book and would recommend it to fans of urban fantasy and supernatural romance. ( )

The fourth book in Kelley Armstrong's "Women of the Otherworld" series, we follow Paige to Miami, and finally meet the elusive Cortez Cabal. This book really contributed to further world-building of the Otherworld, setting up the rules, adding new characters while bringing in old ones, and was a very enjoyable read. Kelley knows exactly how to weave urban fantasy, romance, thriller and mystery to create a great book! ( )

This is my absolute favorite of Kelley Armstrong's Women of the Otherworld series. Paige and Lucas are my favorite characters, and I love the interplay between them in this book. There’s also less of (teenage) Savannah, who drives me nuts. There is also lots of humor (including some fun genre-insider humor about vampires in New Orleans) and yet it includes emotional depth. Very good all-around book. ( )

This was a good book, but it just seemed long and took me a bit to read it. But I love this series. ( )

I really didn't get the title even by the end of the book but the story was good. Lucas and Paige are drawn into investigating the murders of Cabal employee's children by Lucas father. Learn more about the Cabal's and Lucas' family, as well as snippets of our friends Jeremy, Clay and Elena.
