Booklist Review

Harper's fans need wonder no more about how their supremely talented all-American girl will get her guy back. Last time we saw this crew, Oracle David had been smuggled out of town for his own safety. Trouble is, he never can be really safe, and if he is gone, Harper's protective Paladin powers wane. Hawkins' concluding volume to a trilogy that began with Rebel Belle (2014) and Miss Mayhem (2015) takes Harper, Bee, and the sketchy, not-quite-trustworthy Mage Blythe on a magic-filled road trip to track down David. When an Oracle's powers begin to disintegrate, does he need to be killed to avoid the destruction he might wreak? Can David be rescued and extracted from his paranormal being? These questions dog Harper and her friends, building the suspense. This doesn't quite have the humor and satiric edge of its predecessors, but both Harper and the readers might be pleasantly surprised or even a little relieved at hints that this paranormal reality may lose some of its para by the conclusion.--O'Malley, Anne Copyright 2016 Booklist
