Really enjoyable story of Baba Yaga as a modern investigator of wrongs for people who summon her. Using Baba Yaga as a title more than a real name though they become a bit blurred.
The series starts off with a bang. I loved Barbara and Liam. Definitely a fan of Chudo-Yudo, the large dog that's a small dragon. But I'm terribly upset that the series doesn't stick with Barbara. Instead, each story is about a different Baba Yaga. I feel like we just got started with Barabara and L...
Barbara Yager is one of the Baba Yaga, a human, nature-witch of sorts. She was summoned to Clearwater County by an elderly Russian couple whose granddaughter was kidnapped. Right from the start, Baba realizes that otherworldly forces are at work, and that there is a menacing connection between the p...
Three children have gone missing from the little town of Clearwater. Sheriff Liam McClellan has been searching for some kind of clue as to who took the children and if the kids are dead or alive but no matter where he looks, he finds no answers. When Mary Elizabeth Shields goes missing, her desper...
I enjoyed this novel. It was fun and relaxed. The writing flowed smoothly along and the plot had just enough action and romance blended together.

I am on a long and sad search for UF books that are in the same league as Kate Daniels. I had high hopes for this with the rather unique take on Baba Yaga. It was not a particularly good read for me. I am disappointed as it was a mostly very boring read (a little better towards the end), but it ...
I'm embarrassed to confess I can't remember who recommended Wickedly Dangerous to me. They were right, though. This re-imagining of Baba Yaga in modern America is interesting. Wonderful world building. The romance and issues are real, at the heart of the fantastical paranormal elements. That gave ...
Wickedly Dangerous , first in a new series by Deborah Blake, brings forth the retelling of Baba Yaga, a child-eating witch of Russian folklore. Baba Yaga, in Blake’s world, is not the name of a single woman but more of a job title. Baba Yaga maintains balance of the natural world — they are like the...
I received a print and digital copy in exchange for an honest review from Berkley and Netgalley. Wickedly Dangerous is the first book in the Baba Yaga series, the author Deborah Blake adds a new spin on the old mythology/fairytale by creating a group of hot women with their own stories to tell. In W...
3.5 starsFun read with a few niggles. Review to follow
