So the story is about Death falling in love with a girl (which is not supposed to happen because he is Death after all) who can see souls because a voodoo prince has a claim on her. That sentence alone will make me want to read this if I haven't yet. These are the first Abbi Glines books that I've ever read and I am not disappointed at all. Basically, in this story, Death is a hot guy who can appear in human or 'soul' form. When he is human, he is Dank Walker, the rocker. When he is Death, he gets the soul of people whose bodies can no longer function or hold the soul. One day, Pagan saw him and thought she can ignore him like all the other spirits but he suddenly talked to her (which never happens with other spirits) so she got intrigued and the story continues from there. The only downside to this is that Pagan is so clingy and is doesn't think about the consequences of her actions at times though nothing else is wrong other than that. Leif, who became her boyfriend, is apparently, a voodoo prince who has a claim on her soul because Leif's father, who is the voodoo god, saved Pagan from dying when she was a baby. THAT IS A REALLY SURPRISING PLOT TWIST. Dank and Pagan face different problems in each book (except in 'Leif', which is kind of a novela) and each are unique and contains a surprise whenever you find out what that problem is. My favorite book out of the 3 is probably Predestined because we get to explore Vilokan (the voodoo place where Leif's father leads), we get to know a lot about Death and Gee (the transporter) has a lot of parts there. Gee is probably my favorite character because of her sarcastic, over protective and witty personality. The story is very well written and the writing style is not boring at all. I'm sure most of you guys will enjoy the trilogy as well as I did.
Cheerio and DFTBA
