A DEADLY HIGH

Magic-wielding Churchwitch and secret addict Chess Putnam knows better than anyone just how high a price people are willing to pay for a chemical rush. But when someone with money to burn and a penchant for black magic starts tampering with Downside's drug supply, Chess realizes that the unlucky customers are paying with their souls--and taking the innocent with them, as the magic-infused speed compels them to kill in the most gruesome ways possible.

As if the streets weren't scary enough, the looming war between the two men in her life explodes, taking even more casualties and putting Chess squarely in the middle. Downside could become a literal ghost town if Chess doesn't find a way to stop both the war and the dark wave of death-magic, and the only way to do that is to use both her addiction and her power to enter the spell and chase the magic all the way back to its malevolent source. Too bad that doing so will probably kill Chess--if the war doesn't first destroy the man who's become her reason for living.

From the Paperback edition.

Ok, I am ready for a new source of angst, I think. It's probably too much to hope that there is some kind of confessing-of-trauma-leading-to-protective-hero-soothing-and-healing kinda thing coming, huh? Cuz at this point I pretty much don't like Lex and am sorta over the angst revolving around him. Still, I love how fucked up and damaged and real Chess and Terrible are. Also, I am so disappointed that the only Downside Ghosts release this year is a 32-page ebook! I don't want to wait until summer 2014! (3.5 stars) ( )

Chasing Magic
By: Stacia Kane
Narrated by: Bahni Turpin
Series: Downside Ghosts, Book 5
I still enjoyed the book even though I gave it 3 stars. I love the mystery, world building, and most of the characters. I enjoy the fantasy aspects of the story. The drug use and "I am sorry" from Chess constantly gets annoying.
I assume there will be another book because things need tied up but I am not sure I want to follow future books. The first ones were great but now it's time for Chess to go to rehab!
Narration was excellent! ( )

With every book in this series, Stacia Kane grows and adds depth and heart to her charactors. I thought City of Ghosts was as good as this story could get, but this book was better. Chess and Terrible are so real, their love something you can feel through every line and in every chapter. An awesome book, highly recommended. ( )

Even though this is a lightweight type of book, I think the author comes up with a great story and good twists. I am growing a little weary of Chess's addiction and relationship issues, but that could be my baggage not hers. ( )
