Betrayed By Blood
In a city of lies and deception, only one thing stands between chaos and justice. For centuries, a band of outlaws called the Amaranthine has kept the peace in Ormere and hidden in plain sight while the Order of Sorcerers spreads their deadly magic among the city’s inhabitants.
After losing her fiancé in bust gone wrong, Amaranthine Agent Kaylan Avilion returns home to discover that Elijah didn’t die but instead was changed by the twisted guards of the Order, who seek to find a dangerous artifact tied to Kaylan’s past and the murder of her family. When her sister goes missing and a foe from their past reemerges, Kaylan knows she must save Freya before she’s poisoned by the very people who took Elijah away from her. But how will Kaylan react when she learns Elijah’s secret, and can they come together to stop the Order’s plan in time?

The Amaranthine Chronicles Complete Series Urban Fantasy Box Set Betrayed By Blood Dark Revenge The Final Battle eBook Tiffany Shand Reviews
(I received a copy from the author in exchange for an honest review.)
In a world of magic, a group called The Amaranthine aimed to keep everyone safe while also trying to figure out what plot is unraveling within the Order of Sorcerers. After an incident that caused the disappearance of her fiancé, Kaylan finally returns to find that whatever happened had a much different motive. Elijah is alive but something happened to him and he’s not the only one that’s changed. Not only is he back but her sister Freya is now missing. Will Kaylan, Elijah and her friends piece everything together in time to foil whatever plan the Order has in motion?
I loved that the series was very straight-forward and fast-paced. You get to jump right into the story and the action starts right away. The transition in between all three stories were very smooth as well as the next one starts right where the one before left off. It was a very entertaining story full of magic, good versus evil, and constant movement. Kaylan wants to fix whatever needs fixing and since it’s become personal, she’s determined to save her sister and make everything right again. I would have liked to learn more about their magic and the world they live in. I had a hard time figuring out if it was solely them who had magical abilities or if everyone contained some kind of magic. Other than that, this book was super fun to read and I would definitely read it again.
I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a fast-paced fantasy with a lot of twists you wouldn’t expect happening!
I give this awesome book 4 out of 5!
Disclaimer I received a free ARC copy of The Amaranthine Chronicles by Tiffany Shand for a fair and honest review. I tried to write a spoiler-free review, but if you just want to know my rating without any additional details, I think it is a fun collection and well worth your time if you like urban fantasy, romance, and adventure.
Potential Spoilers Ahead
I have not read anything by Tiffany Shand before this collection. A fellow author recommended her work to me, so I signed up for the ARC (advanced reader copy) review. I am very glad I had the chance to read this collection and share my thoughts (in no particular order.)
The first aspect to impress me was the cover. Yes—I know the old saying “never judge a book by its cover,” but so many collections seem to feature one image repeated with different color schemes. I like the fact that the author took the time to create separate cover art for each of the three novellas and to include all of them in the collection. This attention to detail right at the start is impressive.
Second—I love the fact that it is a collection. I am a person who likes to “binge” read a series. (Waiting for Stephen King’s The Dark Tower or the next book in Game of Thrones is very difficult. Anticipation is fun, but only if you have to wait a short amount of time!) I was happy that I did not have to wait for the resolution.
Third—I like the story world. It is urban fantasy with a mixture of modern living and ancient buildings; magic and technology; standard vehicles and futuristic Transpos. A not-so-secret organization is bent on destroying everything except what fits into their worldview and a brave few are willing to resist. The fight scenes are a mixture of magic and martial arts, claws/fangs and daggers/knives. In other words, a fun place to visit in a novel. (It would be a bit too dangerous in real life—especially with wolf-like shifters roaming around ready to go for your throat.)
Finally—I enjoyed the romance between Kaylan and Elijah. In a world seeped with magic, both dark and light, they are a realistic couple. I could easily believe the aspects that drew them together and the issues that kept them apart. Family also plays a large part in the theme of the novel. What do you owe them? What they owe you? How much are you willing to risk for the sake of that familial connection?
Shand spins an interesting tale filled with magic, narrow escapes, danger, intrigue, romance, and plenty of adventure. I kept turning the pages, wanting to find out what happened next. I look forward to reading other books by this author!
I was given a copy of this box set to review and I'm so happy I was. The Amaranthine Chronicles hits the ground running. Described as an Urban Fantasy it tells the tale of a small group of renegades, hiding among their fellow citizens, tasked with keeping the peace. But from page one you are told that there is something darker afoot. Spies, of the human and magical variety, force our heroes to adapt between attack and retreat as their true enemy is still a mystery. It definitely has a unique voice and feel. The fact that it opens in in the midst of a sting operation tasks the author with bringing us up to speed while still navigating a narrative. It can be daunting and confusing if not executed properly but Shand handles it the with relative ease.
Betrayed by Blood, the first book in the trilogy, begins with Kaylan Avillan's fiance being killed in a magical blast. The key players are introduced all at once. Woven through a series of telling dialogue the reader learns who these protagonists are. It reads as smart and creative. Tiffany Shand does an admirable job keeping each character distinct and interesting which adds a deeper layer to the story. Each of whom also possess some form of magic that can protect them. But this is where the trilogy differs from high fantasy. There are characters of technical aptitude as well. For instance the ability to pick a lock with a bobby pin or hack into a computer system. It's cute nods like, this to our world, where you remember that this could all be going on all around us. You get the feeling that this world exists for the author, she has been immersed in it. I just want more.
It is full of exciting action sequences that are choreographed well, and I of course I imagine it as a CW show so it's great. Picture a crime solving gang made up of four, thirty somethings with an older boss/mentor figure who has known them since they were kids. They battle supernatural forces without getting any glory but they don't complain. They're a tight-knit crew that are unstoppable when they're together. Doesn't that sound like something that could be blaring on your TV at say 8PM, Thursday nights? (AWESOME, right?)
This trilogy kept me on the edge of my seat and I found myself reading it long after I had decided to go to bed. Get the box set because you'll read all three in one sitting. Definitely a binge-read.
Did I mention it's chalked full of suspenseful moments? All in all in it was exciting to read and I greatly enjoyed it. There's no pesky description overload, enabling the reader to enlist their imaginations and keeps the story moving right along.
Fast paced, good plot. The world could be better defined and so could the characters.Overall very enjoyable if not brilliant writing.
