Book Review: Necromancy the Musical

 


Wednesday meets High School Musical in this thrilling magical mystery debut, perfect for readers who enjoy the humor of Holly Smale and the mystical world of Rachel Hawkins. Behind the glistening lights of New Orleans hides a darker underbelly, a mysterious world filled with voodoo, magic, necromancy, and gifted people like sixteen-year-old CeCe LeBlanc.


Drama geek by day. Necromancer detective by night.

ACT ONE: CeCe LeBlanc debuts at drama camp. Goodbye to nights talking to the dead, reliving their murders to seek justice. Hello to scene-stealing performances and playing plastic bags in the wind.

ACT TWO: Enter stage right, hunky love interest Zach Wren, who puts the drama in drama camp. Suddenly CeCe's questioning her "no cliché camp romance" philosophy. The moment she and Zach touch, the intoxicating energy of his magic pulses through her, and sparks fly. The problem? Zach feels it too, and he's sworn off all things magic.

INTERMISSION: Behind the curtain lurks an evil magic caster, desperate to steal CeCe's power, haunting her dreams and threatening those she loves. Add in another death and she's trading in her plastic bags for body bags.

Time is running out, and the danger closes in. No one is safe until she can crack the case.

ACT THREE: CeCe must catch the killer, save her budding romance, and protect the people she loves. All before the final bow. With co-stars like these, what could possibly go wrong?

Nothing a necromantic, drama loving girl can't handle.


My Review


As if summer camp is not chaotic enough, add in someone trying to use CeCe's necromancy powers and you get a thrill ride of a read. I found Cece very relatable as a bit of a loner, who is just trying to fit in. Everyone needs a best friend like Portia. She kept things entertaining and brought a few laughs. 

I definitely liked Zach. He is so easy going. I like that he just accepted CeCe for who she is. They made a great duet together. He is CeCe's knight in shining armor, although, she is capable of taking care of herself, but every hero needs a little back up support. Looking for your next fun read, then pick up a copy of this book!
