Kathy's Review:I was looking forward to reading this one, as I really enjoyed Angela's Coven. This book is similar to the first, as both follow a strong male central character. They are also tied together but I will decline to say more about that. J.R. is a pilot who takes a job in the remote area of Haines, Alaska. The beginning of the book really establishes the citizens of Haines and the small-town, "everyone knows everyone" atmosphere. Then we learn a little bit about J.R.'s past love ... oh, I should probably mention that she's DEAD and has made a pact with the devil to come back and try and keep J.R. under her spell? Things are starting to get interesting!Then there's a small group of native tribal witches that predict evil is coming to town and that the Eagle Man can stop it. It's no great leap to connect the dots that J.R. is the Eagle Man, and the dead ex and her pal Lucifer are the evil that's come to Haines.How will J.R. and his new girlfriend, Robyn, who seems to have a spiritual connection to him, stop the devil? Is there a connection to the coven in book one? Will Haines be overtaken by Satan and his minions?I guess you'll have to read to find out! This book was long but worth it, in my opinion. The good stuff is about 1/3 of the way through and keeps going strong until the end. Maybe a tad bit too long, but very readable and folksy.*An ecopy of this novel was provided by the author in exchange for an honest review.
