Synopsis (Goodreads):
The guy has a gift. You might think his alpha shifter-ness is his gift, but no. His gift is the gift of controlled chaos. Things might end up working out when he puts things in motion, but they work out because of luck and Cage's inability to let things go when he gets something in his head. (He kind of reminds me of pre-Genesis Cesar, come to think of it. I would like to go on record as saying Cesar and Cage should never be left in a room alone together. They might accidentally summon some Old Gods and send the world back to the Stone Age so that everyone has to go through Genesis again. And again. And again.)
That said, when Cage gets something in his head, he DOESN'T LET IT GO. Like his fanboy crush on Silverclaw. Or his desire to be the next Hero. Or Brigid. (I'll admit Brigid's growing on me. The fact she's finally starting to see beneath Cage's exterior to the beating heart of the shifter underneath makes me think of her in a slightly softer light. Plus, the lady has her reasons for doing what she does and I respect that.)
A whole lot of danger (more than a little of it caused by Cage himself), the bonds of family and community, a dastardly plot that must be stopped, and one were-squirrel successfully masquerading as a phoenix. *thumbs up*

Synopsis (Goodreads):
Shatter Cage has everything he wants. He’s convinced his billionaire boss that he’s a phoenix shifter—not a were-squirrel—and he’s working his dream job as a professional thief. But just when everything is going to plan, his home falls apart. Literally. The barriers protecting his lower-class neighborhood from toxic fog have fallen.Thoughts on Reign of Monsters: I feel like Cage always has the best intentions when he sets out to do something. Yeah, he might be stealing from people and procuring items better left undisturbed, but he doesn't do it maliciously. It's just that things always seem to...I dunno, fall apart in a gloriously spectacular manner when he puts his actual plan into action.
Luckily, his new boss is powerful. Less luckily, his new boss doesn’t care to help.
Cage can help his hometown if he doesn’t mind stealing from his boss, risking his dream job…and if he can survive the resentful ex-girlfriend on his heels, hellbent on murdering him.
