Description

Myla Lewis has her life back. Wife. Mother. Queen of the Thrax. Great Scala and mega boss of supernatural igni. Yay! Then one day, Myla runs across a strange fountain and her igni screech like crazy. Our heroine speaks the fateful words, “Some days, I wish I weren’t the Great Scala.”

Turns out, a demon-titan named Bedlam lurks behind the fountain… and he grants her wish.

Moments later, Myla returns to her teenage days of Purgatory High. No husband. No child. And zero power over igni. Without Myla around as the Great Scala, all quasis now live under Armageddon’s rule. That sucks. Hard. So Myla sneaks into Antrum in search of her husband, Lincoln. Together, they’ll take down the evil Bedlam and return life to normal, easy peasy. But once Myla arrives, two problems arise.

First, her husband doesn’t know her. At all.

Second, Lincoln is married to someone else.

Fuuuuuuu…

To say I loved Quasi Redux would be a huge understatement.
We get to see Myla & Lincoln as different characters, and yet they still hold their integral personalities.
The story of Beauty & The Beast carries strongly through this book, and we are whisked away of a fabulous fairy tale.
I am eagerly waiting to see what comes next....

Christina Bauer manages to make something old new again in Quasi Redux, the eighth book in the “Angelborn: Origins” series. Bauer not only completely remakes Myla’s story, but writes a fairytale-retelling while she is at it.

I love the premise and it works for the series and for Myla and Lincoln. I would love a sneak peek in Prisoner 412’s life during the five years before Myla showed up because that seems like a fun story. Bauer makes the alternate universe just as fun and interesting as Antrum is in the “present”.

Lucky for us Myla is who she is no matter where you plant her and snarky plays well for me anywhere she is. Myla is still a kick-butt heroine who is willing to fight, love, and fight some more just for the fun of it. She does not give in to threats and takes no prisoners - not even her love Lincoln. Myla is willing to fight on her own if necessary that is if she can’t talk you to death into agreeing. (laugh)

Bauer creates great chemistry between Myla and Lincoln that transcends wishes, curses, and name-calling. I love Lincoln’s inner dialogue in regards to Myla in Redux. His feelings are just as funny at times as the spoken words.

Love redone mixed with a fairytale, action, sarcastic wit, and Myla is what makes Quasi Redux a great break from the Fall chill moving in.

I received an ARC of this book and I am writing a review without prejudice and voluntarily.

Bedlam, a demon-titan wants Myla as his wife. He doesn’t care that Myla is already married to Lincoln, the Prince of Thrax nor that she doesn’t even want to be with him.

Myla’s world is turned upside down when she finds herself in another world or life. Myla is losing her memories and fast. She calls upon her Igni to help her but they are disappearing as fast as her memory and can not help her.

Myla makes herself little notes, list of ways so she won’t forget who she is or her life. She repeats over and over to herself that she is married to a wonderful hot man Lincoln and that she has a son, Maxon.

In order to keep her memories and get her life back, Myla believes that all she has to do is find that hunk of a husband of hers, Lincoln. Myla believes that she and Lincoln together can set things right again and everything will go back to normal.

Well, when she finds Lincoln he no longer remembers her. Myla now has to help him remember who she is or at least trusts her and believe in her that she is telling him the truth.

Myla is one of my favorite characters of all time. I love her witty ways, the way she talks, the things she says, and I love how she gives everyone a name. And I love her tail and the way it communicates with her poking her in the shoulder or that she can use her tail in a fight. I love this world of Myla and Lincoln’s, the Angelbound world.

Quasi Redux is the eighth book in the Angelbound Origins world and with each book, they just get better and better. The world-building is just so awesome. The writing is brilliant and the storyline is amazing. I can’t get enough of this world and am always anxiously awaiting the next book in the series hoping it never ends. I do hope to see the Angelbound worlds on the big screen one day.

So with saying all that I do highly recommend Quasi Redux and all the Angelbound books to anyone looking for a great read. Grab your copy of Quasi Redux today to begin this epic adventure!

I really enjoy this series. Myla is a strong character. However, she is also able to have an equal partnership with her husband when doing battle or raising their son. I love the humor and Myla's snark.
Thank you to the author, publisher and NetGalley for my eARC in exchange for an honest review.

I haven’t read any of the previous books in the series so I wasn’t sure about this book to begin with, but I loved it. I loved the Beauty and the Beast retelling element but also the fact that they knew it was as well, it just added a bit more of a twist as it makes them second guess themselves. Will definitely be looking at going to read how the story started out.
