Allie has been given the charge of leading the others of the Authority in saving the world from Isabelle and Leander, whose objective is to eliminate all other soul complements in gaining their goal of taking over. Those possessing various types of magic along with Allie, Zayvion, her hounds and one gargoyle, strike out to fight the elements of explosion and the earth splitting with fire and bolts of magical lightning. The main task of closing off the magical wells surrounding Portland is a task greater than imagined, with everyone barely escaping with their lives at the final well and their show down with Isabelle and Leander. Brought back from the dead with Zayvion at her side, Allie learns her dead father has kept secrets from her, even while possessing her mind and sharing her body throughout the fight, that you can gain "magic for a price".

MAGIC FOR A PRICE is the first of the series I have read. I found it a little difficult to get my bearings together on what was happening, but mid-way through it began to come together. The various terms were those I had not related to before and would probably have been easier had I read previous books in this series. I will say that it holds all the excitement and imagination that anyone could wish for. From life to death and again to life, the unexpected becomes the expected in this tale.
