Book two in the Piper Lancaster series in the Curse Keepers world.Just when Piper begins to accept her new role as demon slayer, a fresh threat rises. People are disappearing, and Piper is sure a sinister, otherworldly force is at play. Add to that ghosts who show up out of thin air, warning her of a danger she won’t be able to outrun, and a freaking bevy of supernatural creatures hiding in the … supernatural creatures hiding in the background, and Piper suddenly has her hands full. Especially when the new creatures aren’t demons, or ghosts and she has no idea how to deal with them.
Or whether or not they be good little monsters, or bad.
There is one man who has the knowledge she needs to survive but she can’t even count on him. Why? The bastard left town.
One thing is certain: a big bad demon’s come to town and Piper has to stop him—but she needs help to do it.
If only she could figure out whom to trust…

Oh I couldn’t get enough of this book. Every little cross over from Curse Keepers had me so excited.
I enjoyed that the story was so intriguing that it didn’t need to be constant suspense to love it. Of course it kept me on my toes but not the type to give me anxiety from the suspense. I lived this so much I want to say more but fear spoil it.
This was seriously the best yet! Definite must read!
With this second installment of the Piper Lancaster series, I fell in love with the series all over again. As with the first one, this one is full of non-stop action, wonderful fun, twists, betrayal, and a glimpse of characters from the Curse Keepers series. I literally read this book in one setting, just like I did the first one. One thing, though, I was devastated at the end of this book, but I really can’t say why because I don’t want to give away spoilers. However, just be warned you’ll take one to the heart. I think there’s only one more book in this series, and I’m already sad because I just love Piper and her friends. If you love well-written urban fantasy, you really have to try this series and this author. Everything I’ve read so far I’ve loved. Highly recommend! I was provided the e-book which I voluntarily reviewed.
Thunderstruck is how I feel after reading this amazing book. It has left me mystified, dismayed, horrified, understanding, and loving most of the characters in this series. This book is hard to put down and trust me you don’t want to miss out on reading this amazing series!! I was super stoked seeing the Curse Keepers trio! Can’t wait to see what Piper, the demon slayer will do in the next installment!!
OMG!!! Another on the edge of your seat book from D.G Swank. Piper is back and kicking butt. There is non stop action from start to finish. I was pulled in from the start, I loved all the twists and turns. Also Ellie and Collin are back in this book, which makes my heart melt!!!
Wow! This book was amazing! I loved the first book of the series Of Ash and Spirit. I did not think it was possible but somehow, book 2 Of Fire and Storm far surpassed book 1 with action and my love. I could not put it down. I stayed up way to late reading it but was worth every hour of missed sleep.
I already loved Piper from book 1 and I was already intrigued by Abel and Jack. Book 2 made me love Piper even more and love Jack too. Abel was a different story. I had so many emotions with Abel. One minute I didn’t trust him, next I loved him, then didn’t trust him again, then irritated by him, intrigued again, the absolutely loved him again. To make this book even better; Ellie, Collin, and David (From The Curse Keeper series) are back! I am so excited to see everyone team up to take down demons, monsters, and Gods!
Of Fire and Storm was an action packed roller coaster of feelings and emotions. What a fantastic ride. I am desperate for book 3!
Second in series. Good read.
Of Fire and Storm is a great second book for our demon slayer Piper and her friends. We finally get to know more about Abel and meet several new characters which must be making another cameo appearance in the next book. Abel’s unusual interest in Piper is unnerving, as a reader, I am not sure I trust him but who else can help Piper find the answers and finance the training she so desperately needs? Rhys, Hudson, and Jack are thankfully continuing their roles in this book. That Jack is just the perfect guy for Piper, much like Daniel in Ellie’s series. The cousins get to meet in this book but it is under distress – so no big family reunion….yet. This books ends with a cliff hanging – begging the reader for more! Excellent book!
Of Fire and Storm is the second book in the Piper Lancaster series and it was such an amazing book! It was hard for me to put this book down because I really needed to know what was going to happen next. I was so excited to see Ellie, Collin, and David, from the Curse Keepers series, make an appearance. I am still unsure about Abel but I am looking forward to learning more about him. I love Piper, Rhys, Hudson, and Jack and I cannot wait to read more about them and their adventures.
I felt that Ms. Swank did an excellent job at creating this supernatural world that takes place in Asheville, North Carolina. It was also interesting to see what the afterlife could possibly look like for those who have passed. I also enjoyed reading about the other supernatural creatures in this book and their roles in this series. I am somewhat glad I waited to read the series only because I do not have to wait to read the third book in this series.
This particular series is a spin-off of Swank’s The Curse Keepers trilogy. I highly recommend the original series if you haven’t read it as I feel as though it would enhance the reading experience although it is not necessary.
With that being said, I loved it! It was truly amazing. This book grabs a hold of you and puts you through the ringer! That, my book lover friends, is a really good thing! There is just so much that I’m still processing. Piper has grown into her powers in such a short time which opens a world of possibilities for her and makes her an even bigger prize. Abel is ever the mysterious man behind the curtain. Do we love him or do we love to hate him, that’s the real question. It was awesome to see Ellie, Collin, and David of the original series again. Collin hasn’t lost his touch! Such a great series with so much potential that Book 3 can’t get here fast enough!
I love Piper Lancaster! The second book in this trilogy is action packed from start to finish, and there is never a dull moment with these wonderful characters. New creatures emerge in Of Fire and Storm, and Piper is unsure how to deal with their existence as her new role as a demon slayer. I love watching Piper come into her own, and enjoyed watching her put these new powers to use. This book is an exciting. fast paced, page turner with a huge plot twist at the end. I absolutely loved finally seeing Ellie, Colin, and David back again from the original Curse Keeper series. What a fantastic ride, I cannot wait to see what book three brings!
Ellie, Collin, and David appear in this book to help Piper out. Piper is still finding her true calling with Abel – even though he’s left town! They are going to kick butt and take names shortly! I can feel it! But how can I wait until Of Blood and Monsters comes out? A month is too long! I officially love Piper! Hoping to see more of Ellie in the next book as well! To say I’m obsessed is an understatement!
Of Fire and Storm was everything I hoped it would be!! I absolutely loved this book. Piper is back at it with the ghost hunting, but is still busy slaying demons. I love that we get to see both the ghost and demon aspects of what she does. So many touching moments with the ghosts and plenty of scarier moments with some not so nice ghosts and the demons! Piper is just awesome and I enjoyed watching her progress with her powers. Abel does what Abel does best and made me love him, then hate him, then love him some more. Aaaand we get get the joining of Piper and her crew with Ellie and hers! Terrific combo! The whole novel is incredibly fast-paced and I couldn’t put it down. Cannot wait for the next book!
Oh my word! This book had me so emotional! I was amazed, sad, angry, happy… just all over the place. I feel like reading The Curse Keepers series before reading this one is so incredibly beneficial. I think had I not read those books first I would have been a bit lost in this book. I was so happy to see Ellie, Collin, and David again. I’m eagerly awaiting the next book to see them all together again. I think I’m going to have to do a reread just to process it all again.
There is a reason this book has so many great reviews. It is a GREAT book. I love Piper. If you are looking for a new series, definitely give this series a try. You won’t regret it.
I have no idea what I was expecting but that was good! Plus we got a little sneak peak at Collin and Eli. I can’t wait for the third book. Piper is becoming more of a bad ass that she makes me want to learn how to fight.
This was a great adventure to jump into. Piper’s power is growing at an accelerated rate. She is constantly discovering more about herself and the supernatural world. Yet there is still so much she needs to learn. Her friendships are tested and some new players make themselves known. It’s difficult to know who to trust. And everyone can feel that time is running out.
Incredibly phenomenal! My head, my brain, my emotions are still spinning and this will take quite a while to settle down. I’ve been impatiently waiting for this installment and it was much more above my expectations again. Denise surprises me every time but this installment was full with surprises and revelations! Piper has quickly grown into real badass heroine with so soft heart who will do everything to protect her friends. And I still trust Abel. I was so happy to meet my old friends Curse Keepers in this book! I can see them all teaming up for really great things!
If you are hesitating to give this series a try don’t! It’s sooo good!
I love love love Piper, and I love love love the world she has now found herself in,
She is learning as she goes, but also has the help of some friends of sorts and the best thing is start of previous characters from the cruse keepers starting to make an appearance, of course there are lots of new characters to fall in love with but #omg I love it!
Incredible! A real page-turner with surprises everywhere. I highly recommend this series!
Oh my…what an amazing book! I was so excited for this book, I loved the first book Of Ash and Spirit, and I couldn’t wait for Of Fire and Storm to be released. It definitely did not disappoint.
I absolutely love Piper. She has her hands full, in this book, with all the demons popping up all over Asheville. She’s trying to balance everything while trying to figure out what she’s a part of and what the heck is going on in her life.
I love that we got to see Ellie, Collin, and David again…I’ve missed them so much.
This book had so many twists and turns and had me guessing every step of the way. I can not wait to continue Piper’s story.
