The Fire Keeper by J.C. CervantesMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
The middle entry of J.C. Cervantes' planned Storm Runner trilogy sees Zane Obispo having to deal with a lot of unexpected ramifications from his first adventure. Not only having to live in isolation on a faraway island where shadow magic mucks with the WiFi, but the fact that by publishing his adventure in the world, even in a form where only the godborn (that is, we in the real world) can read the most salient details, has earned him a lot of negative attention from the Maya pantheon. Nice little touch of meta-humor there, Cervantes. But for this book, it's pretty appropriate that it's The Fire Keeper, because the action keeps the plot moving blazing fast and blisteringly hot. Only one more book left, and I'm pretty scared to see what kind of epic finale Cervantes gives us. Being that she's working under Rick Riordan's auspices, this is gonna get bloody even when it's bloody awesome...
