It’s been two months since Rune Leveau, aka Anna Masterson, survived the machinations of the Kodiak corporation and things have been relatively peaceful in the iconic bar, the Lucky Devil. The peace couldn’t last. The corporate entities that rule her Chicago are not through with the Finder yet and the other powers-that-be don’t intend to be left in the dust. The key is finding the Masterson … the Masterson Files, a computer program with the impossible ability to cast magic. Now the Magic Guild is wanting a word with her and as trouble in the form of the Faerie King converges at her bar, Rune finds herself in the center of warring factions battling it out with bullets and magic.
Which is exactly the right moment for the cybernetically augmented corporate spy, St. Benedict to come back into her life. But can these two survive the lies that lay between them? More importantly, can Rune get the Saint of Liars to help her answer the one question she’s burning to answer: where is Justin Masterson?

I loved the first book so I was highly anticipating this one. There’s lots of action and magic in this one, and the world-building is complex and detailed. I love the mix of urban fantasy, cyberpunk and paranormal elements, as it adds a lot of tension and keeps you guessing.
This is a sequel so the first one in this series needs to be read first to fully grasp this book. We leave off with Rune, who has inherited this bar from her aunt after her aunt passes away. This book picks up 2 months after those events take place and in book one, she meets Saint and the events leading up to has caused Saint to take time to come to grips with it all. And even though she hasn’t seen Saint, Saint turns up when this new adventure hits. Megan has delivered a bright brilliantly costructed story for readers alike to enjoy!!!!

I Absolutely loved this book. I highly recommend reading this series in order as it will give you a better idea of what is going on and help with the characters . This authors style of writing is simply amazing. She grabs your attention from the beginning and doesn’t let go till the end. Her characters are fun and realistic. There’s a bit of everything in this book from action to danger. Rune finds herself in a situation that poses danger to her and those involved. Will there be a war between the different sides? Will Rune get the answers she’s looking for about Justin? Find out what happens next in this fast paced must read . I can’t wait for more from this Author.
The Saint of Liars (The Lucky Devil series Book 2) by Megan Mackie was a good dystopia read. This is the second book in the series and I enjoyed it just as much as I did the first. The world was fantastic and well written. Rune and St. Benedict were very well developed and I loved them! This was definitely a page turner that I did not want to put down.
The Saint of Liars is the second book in the Lucky Devil series. I highly recommend reading the first book before you read this one to get a good grasp of the characters and events that set this book up. Plus, the first book is an amazing read too.
I truly love the blend of tech and magic in this series. In Saint of Liars, Rune discovers more about her abilities, which is a fascinating aspect of the story line.
The tension between St. Benedict and Rune is nearly palpable. I’ll be interested to see how that plays out in future installments. St. Rachel is kind of a person I love to hate. Well, not hate really, but she keeps throwing a wrench in the potential romantic works.
This book is a stellar read! Highly recommend it.
The Saint of Liars is the second book in the Lucky Devil series, i recommend reading them in order! I thought the first book was fantastic, but then i got my hands on this one! Old faces and new appear in this book, and it will keep you even more invested than the first one! Although both books have left me with unanswered questions, i’m sure the author will get to that in future books! I thoroughly enjoy this series so far and i just cant wait for more!
This book is so much better than the last one. I know..I know… I needed the last one to help make sense of some of this one. We see a lot of the same characters coming back into play. This story is full of suspense and has a lot of action. It just kept rolling right along and I could hardly put it down. Plus there is the whole side story between Rune and St Benedict. Will they or won’t they? Can they or can’t they? To be honest…this area still left me up in the air. I even read slowly and multiple times.
Overall it’s a real good story. Characters that are likable and you learn to care about. Sometimes it take you out to left field but the story doesn’t leave you there. It always brings you back.
The Saint of Liars by Megan Mackie is the second book in the Lucky Devil Series. The way the author blends magic and modern technology is fantastic. This story grabbed me from the beginning and didn’t let go till the end. I enjoyed the way the different character personalities were able to come together. Megan Mackie does a great job melding reality with fantasy, for a fantastic storyline.

This is book two in the ‘The Lucky Devil’ series by Megan Mackie, the storyline is set in an alternate Chicago where technology and magic are in competition with each other. This is an urban fantasy/cyberpunk novel with a fast paced storyline and some great characters. SciFi novels are not my usual genre but having discovered the first book in this series and enjoyed it I was happy to give this second instalment a try and I thoroughly enjoyed being back with Rune and visiting her ‘Lucky Devil Bar’. I was pulled back into the alternate world that Megan Mackie wonderfully creates and was fully immersed in Runes next adventure. Rune Leveau knew the peace couldn’t last and once again finds herself at the centre of a battle between bullets and magic as warring factions converge on her bar. Everyone from the Kodiak Corporation, the Magic Guild, and the Faerie King himself, are after the ‘Finder’. The Masterson Files, which is a computer program with the impossible ability to cast magic is still the major prize wanted by all and they all think that Rune is the key as her former husband built the revolutionary code. Rune feels that cybernetic corporate spy, St. Benedict is the only one who can help her but she’s aware that they are both keeping secrets and telling each other lies. Rune finds she has to trust the, Saint of Liars to help her find Justin Masterson. This novel was full of action and drama all set in an alternate world where main character, Rune really brings the story together and moves the plot along. I was gripped from beginning to end and found the storyline exciting and the narrative easy to read.
The Saint of Liars (Lucky Devil Book 2) by Megan Mackie. This book was just as great as the first not that I had any doubts because this author knows how to create a story world that keeps readers coming back for more. I recommend reading these in order. Once again I was taken on a journey with everything I could ask for in a great story. The characters draw you into their world and I for one was happy to get lost in its pages for a while. The storyline is well written and paced nicely never feeling rushed or lacking. Even the smallest details are are focused on and I love when even the small things matter. I’m definitely looking forward to more from this author. Five stars all the way and highly recommended!

Answers are needed and only reading this book will get those for you. I hope you enjoy Megan Mackie’s book as much as I did. Be sure to read book 1 first.

The Saint Of Liars (Lucky Devil Book 2) by Megan Mackie.
This is the second book in the Lucky Devil series and it is another great addition. We pick up with a Rune the main character, Rune finds herself drawn into a war between corporations, everyone wants her for her powers of finding lost things. I really enjoyed reading this book, I love Rune her character is so relatable and you feel instantly drawn to her. We see a few characters from book one including Saint Benedict. We also have some new characters to get to know and I think they added a lot to this story. Really looking forward to the next instalment. I would definitely recommend reading.
We are back with Rune Leveau at the Luck Devil Bar. We Met Rune in Book one when she had inherited the bar from her Aunt who had recently passed away. The Lucky Devil series is about a young woman named Rune who is a wife named June Masterson who reinvented herself after her abusive husband threw her under the bus for his crimes. Rune doesn’t trust the corporations so things are rough until she decides she wants to find out her ex-husband’s secrets. Rune is a great protagonist and Saint Benedict is just the perfect love interest for her despite both of them carrying serious emotional baggage. The story truly does deepen and expand, building on the characters and plots from the first book. The world Megan builds is so clear. Magic and corporate intelligence, is a wonderful combination. Once again Megan Mackie has created a book that has the old world and modern world colliding in the most amazing way. There is magic, action adventure, suspense, some mystery, drama, tension, chemistry, intrigue, danger, secrets, different realms….as well as a slew of mystical and mythical creatures. Who wouldn’t want to jump down this rabbit hole?!?!
Wow! The Saint of Liars (The Lucky Devil series Book 2) by Megan Mackie was so good I read it in two sittings. Would have been one but my body betrayed me and forced me to sleep. So yes, it was that good. Excellent world crafting in this story as always. This one came with a new twist, not only do you get the clear visual of the magical world there is a new digital world too. The relationship between St. Benedict and Rune keeps me in a dither. I think Rune knows how she feels. An excellent story with indepth characters that I became totally immersed in. You won’t be sorry with this one.
I loved this book by Megan Mackie. I thoroughly enjoyed reading about the newest adventure of Rune and St Benedict. I found it exciting and there were a lot of twists and turns to reach the end. The novel kept a good pace and it kept my attention. This series is good and I look forward to reading more from Megan Mackie, especially more on Rune and St Benedict.
The Saint of Liars (Lucky Devil Book 2) by Megan Mackie
4 Stars!!!!
A yet again I am drawn into the supernatural world of Megan Mackie’s design and not let down. I really found myself unable to put this book down. I just really like how the drama is really balanced. The characters really come to life and I felt as though I was right in the action with them.
I found that I could relate to Rune and could really feel the emotions she was going through. The author has done such a great job of balancing out the drama in the book and grabbing the reader’s attention. I really got drawn into the book and I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.
This is the second book in the Lucky Devil Series and I enjoy this just as much as the first one.
Rune is back and finds herself in the middle of a war between corporations. They all want to use her special ability to find something. Rune’s husband was working on a computer programme that allows you to use magic. However this programme and the code got lost when Rune and her husband James were arrested and the corporations believe Rune is the key to finding it and allowing them to become more powerful.
The only person she feels she can trust in this is St Benedict but with the lies he has told her in the past can she really trust him.
Can she solve this mystery and actually find out what happened to her husband James and save the programme from the wrong hands or will she be betrayed by the people she thought she could trust.
Its an edge of your seat gripping ride that keeps you hanging on to find out what happens at the end.
This is the 2nd book in the series by Megan Mackie. This is a brilliant bright series which a spellbinding storyline.
I adore they cyber steam punk vibe full of action, fantasy, Romance and packed with mystery.
Rune is an awesome character who I want to know more about. Another great book.
This is the second book of an action-packed series by this author. Very fun read that will keep you on the edge. This story flows great with the first. I loved the world just as much as the characters who this story centers around.
I have read other books by this author and even tho they are out of my normal genre, I definitely enjoyed them and this book also. Paranormal thrillers normally take me a little to settle In but I was intrigued by this storyline from the beginning. Going into a different realm, so to speak, was exactly what I didn’t know, I needed. I definitely look forward to reading more by this author.
