Weather Warden Joanne Baldwin, her spouse, the djinn David, and the Planet herself have been poisoned by a substance that destroys the magic that keeps the world alive. The poison is destabilizing the entire balance of power, bestowing magic upon persons who have never had it, and removing it form persons who need it.

Sit down, buckle up, and hold on as Rachel Caine takes you on more wild adventures of Joanne Baldwin. She’s kept her as sassy as ever, and raises the already hair-raising level of action even privileged!
I want to say more but I don’t want to spoil it for anyone. So if you liked the earlier books, you’ll like this one too.

Weather warden Joanne Baldwin and her spouse Djinn David defeated their enemy ex- weather warden Terrible Bob (see Cape Storm), but at a fee that she knows was too high. Besides her friends like Lewis apt ill, she and David are stripped of their power, Djinn are dead in mass numbers, and the Black Confront of the planet no longer contains planet’s natural pulse. Their victory at all costs has come with an even greater fee as Mother Scenery is waking up from a long nap; outraged by the pollution that has ruined much of the planet’s magic.
With the Djinn gone, no one can intercede to persuade Mother Scenery to give mankind one more chance; her inclination is extinction of humanity and all additional living essences. Leaving “Gilligan’s Island” (as she has no gowns anyway) to save the world, Joanne accompanied by her man David, her BFF Cherise and Cherise’s soul mate Kevin set out on a quest to prevent the end of times though they have no power beyond that of humans.
The ninth tale in the Weather Warden urban fantasy saga is a fantastic end that showcases why Rachel Caine is a master wizard. The tale line is simple: save the world from a rightfully righteous fuming Mother Scenery lacking any otherworldly powers. Fans of the long running series will relish the climax as Joanne and company find themselves in dire straits with no hope of success; but as she understands to hit a home run one must swing the bat and risk arresting out; as not trying means out anyway.

As I huge fan of the Weather Warden series, I am so sorry to see it end. As it has been mentioned, I would rather it go out on top than drag on and drag on like Evanovich’s Stephanie Plum series. Rachel Caine doesn’t dissapoint with Total Eclipse, book #9 and final book in her Weather Warden series.
We left Joanne Baldwin and her spouse/Djinn, David, having fought and lost both their powers. They are trying to navigate the soon to be apocalyptic world blind and powerless. Ancient friends join them on their journey like Cherise (human friend), Kevin (adolescent fire warden), and Lewis (the head of the wardens) to just name a few. The world is a weird one for all humanity and Djinn. Mother scenery is awake and really pissed off at humanity and the Djinn are no longer controlled by humans but mother scenery herself. The world is falling apart around them (fires, earthquakes, animal attacking humans, Djinn attacking humans, etc) and humanity is all going to die if mother scenery has her way. Djinn that Jo has once called her friends can no longer be trusted and the one Djinn who could do something (David) has lost his powers. The journey takes them to all the Oracles who have a direct line to mother scenery which are the Air Prediction, Fire Prediction, and the Planet Prediction (which is David and Jo’s daughter Imara).
The journey is two fold in that Jo and David need to get their powers back and find a way to stop the end of the world. No tiny feat but this is Joanne Baldwin. She has seen worse and will not give up until this battle is over. David and Jo learn that their powers were transferred to the two people that were closest in proximity to them and the same people who are with them on this journey. This offers some amusing moments as Jo has to teach her friend on how to use Jo’s ancient Warden powers. I also like the scene where Jo rents a 1970 mustang boss and she just drools over it and will not let anyone else drive it (reminds me of the ancient Jo from earlier in the series with her like of quick cars).
Jo and David both get their powers back eventually and now they have to save humanity from certain doom. David cannot directly help Jo in the battle after getting his powers back because as a Djinn he would be under the control of mother scenery, so he has to hind out in a protective bubble and indirectly help. The journey is quick paced and exciting with obstacles and crazy animal attacks (ants, chimeras, hawks, eagles, snakes, etc). The conclusion is bittersweet in that not everyone survives, but the ending brings hope to the future of humanity. I don’t want to spoil it for you.
I am sad to say goodbye to Jo and David and all their friends and enemies. Rachel Caine gave an exciting conclusion to her Weather Warden series that didn’t disappoint long time fans like myself.

After nine books Rachel Caine finally brings her Weather Wardens series to a climatic end and Caine uses nearly all the mythos she’s built in her weather mage and djinn world to make the series finale in Total Eclipse a satisfying one.
The initial part of the tale, which picks up at the end of the last book is a small slow as the cruise ship which carried the Weather Wardens and Djinn to battle now travels through a kind of magical Despondency leaving both species powerless. But once they make it through the edge, all heck breaks loose – Mother Scenery’s awake and she’s taken control of the Djinn. She’s beyond mad and is pulling no punches and she’s on a battle to wipe the plague of humanity from the face of the Planet.
The only ones standing in the way of the annihilation are weather mage Joanne and her djinn spouse David – both sans their powers – and a rapidly dwindling number of Weather Wardens trying desperately – but with small success – to use their magical control over planet, air, fire and water to mitigate a plethora of natural disasters. Fires rage, along with floods, hurricanes and earthquakes, cities fall and their besieged inhabitants become vicious mobs who are unknowingly hastening their own extinction. It’s a bit more apocalyptic than the end of the world scenarios Joanne has triumphed over before but this time a nearly human Joanne just isn’t going to be able to save the world all by herself.
Once Total Eclipse gets rolling the action is pretty much non-stop and this final Weather Wardens book is pretty much what you’d expect from the series with the requisite cross country trek in a hot classic car for Joanne and crew, multiple brushes with death for nearly all of our favorite characters, some sad goodbyes, some sacrifices, and a bit of trickery by David to get Joanne out of some forceful spots.
I really loved this final road trip with Joann and if you loved the earlier books – even if you’ve agreed up on the series somewhere along the way – you will want to pick up Total Eclipse and even if it’s only to say goodbye to ancient friends – Joanne, David, Cherise, Imarra and Lewis.

Another quick paced novel, which was quicker than most, due to rushing through to find out what ultimately happens to Jo & her allies. As permanently fantastic writing & editing by Caine. I was a bit disappointed that not everything was resolved by the end. I despise to write spoilers in a review, so please check-out the discussion page to find out what persons were. In any case, a satisfying conclusion of such a fantastic action packed & sometimes emotional series. Yes I whimpered a few times, before the end. I’m not ashamed to say.
A hard book to find, since it wasn’t available on Kindle & out at my local Bookstore, but it was well worth getting a copy if you are vested with this series.
