After the last book, I was starting to wonder if Caine was letting her world run amuck and get away from her, but she seems to have regained control and produced another well-crafted twist in her fascinating world of Wardens, Djinn, and a malevolent Mother Earth. Joanne and her half-djinn daughter Imara have to warn the Wardens that the ancient agreement that enslaved the djinn to the humans has been broken, and they no longer have the djinn to command in their battle against the elements. Worse, Mother Earth is waking up, causing a rise in natural disasters around the world that now have only half the Wardens needed to contain them. And if she wakes up completely and discovers what humans have done to the earth, it will mean nothing less than the apocalypse as she controls all the djinn. Somehow Joanne must become a conduit between humans and Mother Earth, and to do so she must find the Oracles, beings more powerful than the djinn - and survive the encounter. It's a fast-paced good read that takes the series in another interesting direction, which more than makes up for the action-movie one-liners and sassy prose that teeter on the edge of cliche.
