love the book!

Revisado: 04-25-22

Fantastic book!! Good narration. Mediocre audio quality. It sounded a litte hollow, like an old recording or low quality microphone. nut the story was too fantastic to stop listening over that. Maybe Audible can fox that??

Just not for me

Revisado: 01-29-20

While it was technically proficient and well written, the story itself rubbed me the wrong way. Maybe I would like a different book by this author better?
while there was nothing wrong with the narration itself, I didn't enjoy it either.

An incredible adventure with incredible characters

Revisado: 01-22-20

A fitting sequel that expands beautifully on the characters and the world. At the end of A Darker Shade of Magic we knew they would meet again; here they start separate, showing their character progression as individuals. This book was exciting, it kept me wondering and hoping about where each turn if the story would go next.

I would be remiss if I didn't mention that Lila Bard is a fantastic character who inspires me greatly. Can I be her when I "grow up"? Though truly all her characters are excellent, with depth and flaws and all the things that make a character real.

Also I liked the narration of this one better than the first book.

Fun, exciting, and hilarious!

Revisado: 10-25-19

I already listened to the author's Red Winter series (and loved it) so decided to give this one a try. I flew through it enjoying every moment! The main character is firey with a quick temper, and supporting characters are unique and memorable. It had a perfect blend of fantasy actuon, humor, and an enjoyable romance arc. I reccomend it!

Fight against cosmic horror and nazi superscience

Revisado: 07-02-19

I was very curious when I first saw the title. How do you write an entire book AFTER the end of the world? Well I found out and I love it! Our two protagonists from the first book go up against lovecraftian horrors, and evil nazi super science. Plus we get some understanding on old questions, such as who was the man who got Carter and Lovecraft into this in the first place. Then new questions arrise, making me think there will be a third book. I hope so because I'm very interested

Also the narrator had his work cut out for him with the large variety of voices and accents in this book. He managed to keep them all consistent and the accents weren't awful.

Fantastic! So worth it!

Revisado: 05-10-19

I had this preordered and was literally counting down the days till its release. I was not dissapointed! I found myself working through it slower than I usually do, trying to savor every moment. I even dreamed about the events twice, and I don't normally have book dreams.

No spoilers, but if someone asked me how I felt durring the build up to the final showdown I would have said "very worried". The author did a fantastic job weaving everything together into this beautiful creation. I had tearry eyes more than once, both the sad and happy type.

Without naming anyone I will say there were casualties of beloved characters. A few of them I didn't even realize how much I loved untill they were gone. I won't name them, but I will say they all had fitting ends.

So many secrets, so much suspense, it all unravels across the story in a way that makes sence but keeps you guessing. I was on the edge of my seat through the entire second half. I think this is the last in this series (maybe?) and if so it is a fitting end to a short but fantastic series.

AMAZING! So well done

Revisado: 03-20-19

This was an incredible finale to a fabulous trilogy! All three books are worth the time, I flew through each of them!
This one sets up the end of the story and wraps it all up beautifully. As the end nears the suspense never drops, you are still guessing what will happen next. Even after the final battle, the author takes the time to wrap everything up. No cliffhanger.
I'll be honest, I got very emotional towards the end (which I dont do often). I have grown to love these characters, through all their challenges and achievements I was cheering them along. Incredibly well written and designed. I already plan to relisten in the future

A fitting and fantastic sequel!

Revisado: 03-08-19

Just like the first book, I devoured it in no time flat and made sure to have the next one ready when I finished. The world is interesting, the story is well paced, and the characters have depth that develops over time (my favorite in a book).
I can definitely see myself re-listening these in the future, and hope the third book is just as wonderful!

Totally worth it!

Revisado: 02-26-19

I loved this story! I wasnt sure if I would like it but decided to give it a try anyways. Worth it! I'm going to start the 2nd book in the series right away.

When I first started listening I thought the narrator's breathy voice and gasps for the main character was a bit much, but it ended up working really well for the character. The voice she does for Shiro is fantastic!

Good but slow

Revisado: 02-25-19

I would prefer to rate this a 3.5 stars but foodreads doesn't do halves. Its a unique idea and well executed. Unfortunately I dont have the patience for al the slow moments of drinking coffee, wanting to cry over little things, and wishinf she had nicer things. Those slowed it down, and watered down the fantasy with the mundane.
Still if you want something with a new look at classic fantasy (vampires, demons, ghouls etc) its a fun read. Great supporting characters too
