But under the town's dust and quiet, an old power is shifting. When bodies start turning up - desiccated and twisted skeletons that Petra can't scientifically Geologist Petra Dee arrives in Wyoming looking for clues to her father's disappearance years before. When bodies start turning up - desiccated and twisted skeletons that Petra can't scientifically explain - her investigations land her in the middle of a covert war between the town's most powerful interests.
Petra's father wasn't the only one searching for the alchemical secrets of Temperance, and those still looking are now ready to kill. Armed with nothing but shaky alliances, a pair of antique guns, and a relic she doesn't understand, the only thing Petra knows for sure is that she and her coyote sidekick are going to have to move fast, or die next.

There's meth cooker called "The Alchemist," not to be confused with Lascaris, the alchemist whose "discoveries" of gold were the foundation of the town back in the Gold Rush. It's strongly implied that the "discoveries" were alchemical successes that none have been able to replicate--not for lack of trying--in the s of years since Lascaris' untimely death in a fire that destroyed all of his belongings and research materials.
That's either highly convenient or highly in convenient, depending on your perspective. Enter Petra Dee, a geologist searching for her father who happened to disappear 20 ish years ago, last seen in Temperence, where she's just accepted a new job. Would you believe that Papa Dee had an interest in alchemy as well? SMALL world. So the plot was interesting.
Dark Alchemy
YES, I know "alchemy" is in the title, but I was hoping there'd be more to it. There was. The Park Ranger is as overbearing as he's supposed to be, but I've never understood the point of having faux love interests--if he'd been an old geezer, the role could have been filled just as well and without the awkwardness. Overall, better than meh, especially if you like the creepy side of Urban Fantasy.
Dark Alchemy has creepy in spades HA! Between the aforementioned Alchemist who seems to ooze Mercury, the growing number of highly calcified and deformed almost corpses, and the ranch hands of the local BMOC who dangle underground from the roots of the "Hanging Tree". Like I said. Minus 0. View 2 comments. Apr 15, Ben Alderson rated it really liked it. An absolute stunner of a book. Twists and turns that leave you thirsting for more.
A adventure fantasy set in the wild wild west, something you can not miss! My rating: 3. She seeks distraction in the form of small-town Temperance, Wyoming where her father was last heard of years past and she intends on searching for him. This small-town is far from ordinary and she quickly realizes that law enforcement has no hold on the town but instead local land owner Sal Rutherford seems to be the one in control. Petra quickly ends up right in the dangerous path of both Sal and The Alchemist when she uncovers a magical artifact that is somehow tied to both men and the mysterious story behind the origins of this mysterious small-town.
Alchemy is the reason surrounding this strange towns existence and involves a mysterious figure by the name of Lascaris that during the Gold Rush, as rumor has it, figured out how to transform simple rocks into gold. After his supposed death in a mysterious fire, new figures rose in hope to take his place. The aspects of alchemy were explained sufficiently and incorporated well into the story, however, as the story drew to a close it lacked a necessary conviction when it came time for solid answers.
This one generated a lot of discussion for me when all was said and done and there is much to love but also much that left me in confusion. Sig possessed more personality than some of the side characters without having to say a single word. He was her first ally in Temperance and he quickly took to her and became her self-appointed guardian before she even knew she needed help. He became incredibly docile by the end and as much as I loved his addition to the story it did seem incredibly unlikely. Still, this story would not have been the same without Sig. Possessing an interesting blend of mystery and magic, Dark Alchemy is an eerie and most inventive tale that kept me completely spellbound.

I almost kept scrolling when I first came upon Dark Alchemy, but then I noticed Laura Bickle is the author and immediately knew I had to read it. Oh, my! Petra is a geologist who arrives in in Wyoming after a horrific accident at her last job. She has ulterior motives for picking this place, though. She soon finds I almost kept scrolling when I first came upon Dark Alchemy, but then I noticed Laura Bickle is the author and immediately knew I had to read it. She soon finds herself facing some pretty weird and unexplainable stuff that turns deadly.
I like Petra. There are some great secondary characters too. Maria is a strong female presence, and I love how she and Petra kind of bond and become quite a formidable duo. However, the tiny Wyoming town with a population of kind of gives off that vibe. Only slightly, though.
Well, mostly subtle. Dark Alchemy is a fairly quick read, yet totally satisfying. Feb 24, Bob rated it liked it Shelves: fantasy-urban. An odd mix of urban fantasy and supernatural horror, with a strong heroine, a kick-ass coyote familiar, and a fascinating villain, all adds up to one of the more refreshingly unusual reads I've enjoyed in a long time.
Unlike so many books in the genre, Dark Alchemy isn't concerned with saving the world, defeating the ultimate evil, or consummating the perfect paranormal romance. Instead, what Laura Bickle has crafted here is a story of weird people, weird history, and weird science, all told on An odd mix of urban fantasy and supernatural horror, with a strong heroine, a kick-ass coyote familiar, and a fascinating villain, all adds up to one of the more refreshingly unusual reads I've enjoyed in a long time.
Instead, what Laura Bickle has crafted here is a story of weird people, weird history, and weird science, all told on a rather intimate scale that keeps the action focused and compact. Bickle starts throwing mysteries at us right from the first page, offering just enough hints to really intrigue the reader. What's up with the two strange skeletons found in the field? What secrets are Sal protecting? What is Petra running from?
What's with the odd coyote and its buried treasure?
