Three Mages and a Margarita is Annette Marie's first Guild Codex book. The main character, Tori, has a bit of an anger problem. She's been fired from a few jobs in the last few months and she's not keen on relying on her brother to cover her half of the rent. When she sees a bartender position offered and they let her do a test run night, she feels like she's finally found a place that will work with her problems. Unfortunately, it's part of a dangerous supernatural underworld she never knew existed.
I liked the characters well enough, but I think I'm rating a little harshly because I've read the second part of the Guild Codex universe and liked the characters a lot better. And the romance that is being pushed (because there are three guys and this isn't why choose) feels a little dull and the chemistry between her and one of the other guy's feels a lot stronger.
But it's a good start to the series and despite all the sort of in your face drama and risk, it's pretty interesting to read.
