Games of Enemies and Allies: Spoiler Post

Greetings, Champions! The Games of Enemies and Allies is officially released! Did you read it yet? I'm bringing back the tradition of a Spoiler Post because I want to give you blog-reading Champions a place to voice your reading thoughts during this initial book launch so please talk away! Warning: If you are waiting to read this series until all the books are out, or if you haven't gotten a chance to read The Games of Enemies and Allies yet, then I'd suggest waiting before you check out the rest of the post or read the comments, or you'll spoil the story for yourself!

As usual, I've will be writing short story as my "thank you" for the launch of this new book and for it reaching 100 reviews--that's 100 honest reviews pooling from Goodreads and all the Amazon stores!  Reviews and ratings are a big deal for authors. Honest reviews can help readers decide if a book is their thing or not, and I'm so thankful that you're willing to spend your time leaving a review--which is why I'm happy to write the shorts! And this time I got the short story finished ahead of time so based on how quickly the reviews showed up for book 1, you can expect to see the short story....very soon. (Hahaha, thank you Champions, you are the best!) But until then, let's talk spoilers!

So, Champions, most of the other Magiford books end book 2 with a cliff hanger but since I knew there was going to be a wait for book #3 I decided to get rid of the usual cliff hanger - did it surprise you? What has been your favorite scene in the series so far? What are you looking forward to seeing in the last book?

The Games of Enemies and Allies: Spot the Cameos

The fun game where you spot the cameos in the Magic on Main Street series is back! As I said with book one, the Magic on Main Street series doesn't deal with the Paragon's search (which he talks about in the Gate of Myth and Power series) and because of that Jade doesn't interact with most of the other series characters you know and love (other than the Drakes!). But since this is still the same city as the other books I've sprinkled tons of cameos of characters and places you will recognize! Some of them will be pretty obvious and some of them will be harder to identify, even if you recently read the other Magiford books. There are more cameos in book 2 and to help you track down all the cameos Vin, our Discord Chief Moderator, created a "Spot it!" tracking graphic for you. Click the graphic below or this link to download it and then color it in/mark it when you find each cameo. The tracker only includes the NEW cameos - characters and places that appeared on the first tracker won't appear on this tracker (example: Killian isn't on this tracker even though he appears in book 2 because he was on the book 1 tracker).

Once again, this is the extra hard version of the "Spot it!" tracker that doesn't have any of the answers included, it just has a clip art representing the place/character. When I release the bonus short story for reaching 100 honest reviews on The Lies of Vampires and Slayers I will post the version that has the names included. Thanks again to Vin fun putting this together - we hope you enjoy it! If you still haven't pre-ordered book 2, The Games of Enemies and Allies, here the links one more time:

Amazon.com | All other Amazon Stores The third and final book in the trilogy will release at the beginning of April (total respect if you are waiting to read all the books until closer to that time - I personally don't have the much self-control). This is a longer wait between the books than I prefer to do, but it ended up being necessary with all my health issues (Pro Tip from Kitty: avoid getting colds, they are zero fun!).

Games of Enemies and Allies: Available for Pre-Order

As I'm sure many of you know, The Games of Enemies and Allies is available for preorder, and is releasing in a few days on January 12th! What's even more exciting, though is we finally have a description! (IMPORTANT: This description contains SPOILERS for book 1, Lies of Vampires and Slayers! If you haven't read it yet, you'll want to skip reading this description!) What else is coming this week? A new Spot It! tracker for book 2 is coming the day before the release day so you can watch for new cameos when reading. I'll also be publishing a new Book Spoilers blog post so you can discuss the book and all your theories with other Champions right here on the website. And I am once again going to be offering a bonus short story when we get 100 honest reviews across Goodreads + Amazon for The Games of Enemies and Allies (the Drake vampires star in the new bonus short story - I had so much fun writing it, and I can't wait for you to read it!). Thank you in advance for every Champion who leaves a review on Goodreads or Amazon, I really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts with other readers. 😍 And a quick reminder that the third and final book in this trilogy will be released at the beginning of April. I know that is a bit of a wait so I wanted to warn you in case you were planning to read all three books at the same time.

Amazon.com | All other Amazon Stores At night they’re enemies. During the day they’re friends. Only one of them is aware of this… My stress levels skyrocketed after I discovered the deadly vampire who has taken over downtown is Considine Maledictus, one of the most powerful vampires alive. Now I’m even more reluctant to tangle with him, but he’s started showing up in the middle of my investigations, even if they’re outside his territory. I never know if he’s there to fight or to lend me some unexpected help. I don’t have time to ponder his weird behavior, because a group of local wizards are up to some shady practices. They’ve never been fond of the non-magical, but suddenly they’re popping up all over the city, “helping” humans. At least I can count on my vampire friend and next-door neighbor, Connor, for some laughs. Except…he’s been acting strange and is even more touchy-feely than usual these days. Regardless, I’m going to stay focused on protecting my city. I’m just not sure if I should be more concerned about the wizards, or the chaotic vampire who swaps from friend to foe on a nightly basis. The Games of Enemies and Allies is the second book in the Magic on Main Street urban fantasy trilogy, and is part of the Magiford Supernatural City world. This series is packed with humor, magical fights, and a sweet, slow burn romance between a slayer who battles social anxiety and a vampire who is sick of his immortality.
