The Accidental Druid's Guide to Binding Demons by Kari Gregg is a slow burn fantasy

Are you looking for an Urban Fantasy with a touch of MM Romance thrown into the mix? Are you a fan of magic, demons, dragons, and druids? Then look no further than The Accidental Druid's Guide to Binding Demons by Kari Gregg.

Over the years, Kari Gregg has delivered a rather unique assortment of MM Romances, from the smutty to the sensual. But every single story has been well-crafted and fun. And while there is very little sexy time in The Accidental Druid's Guide to Binding Demons, it has so much more in the way of storytelling. And yes, there is romance, but it is such a slow burn that the reality is that you are watching the progression of more than just a romance, you are watching a friendship build.

What really makes The Accidental Druid's Guide to Binding Demons so good is the fact that the fantasy is the center of the story. You aren't really here for the romance as much as you are for the magic. This is about a young man having to learn to accept himself and who he is at his core. He has to embrace the grief of losing his father as a child and face the fact that he is a powerful Druid.

Not only that, but in doing so, he will not only avenge his father, but stop some very evil individuals along the way. In a lot of ways, I would say that this is a story that starts of with a bit of a bang, has some slow points along the way and then gives us an epic and downright fiery conclusion.

The Accidental Druid's Guide to Binding Demons is Urban Fantasy with a slow burn romance built in

Kari Gregg knows how to tell a story and this is no exception. While it is certainly on the longer side, with Amazon sharing the print length is 448 pages, it didn't feel terribly long.

This is definitely one of those books that deserves your full attention, and maybe it is me, but I wouldn't hate a sequel. In fact, I think there is at least one character in this book who deserves to get his own happily ever after.

"After testing as mundane, David just wanted to earn his botany degree and enjoy his ordinary life. He didn’t count on a First Blood demon portaling into his part-time job to bind with anyone near that dormant nexus, though. Bad luck for David—demons only bind with magicals.

The jig is up.

Now outed as a druid, David navigates the Cumberland metro’s perilous magical community while exploring his link to that demon, Jae. David’s father, Teddy Mace, had closely guarded secrets, including how strong David’s powers were as a child, but what else had Teddy hidden? What got him killed? And once Jae helps David decipher his dad’s lost grimoire, will the murderers target them next?"
