Hexbreaker

Hexworld, Book 1

De: Jordan L. Hawk

Narrado por: Tristan James

New York copper Tom Halloran is a man with a past. If anyone finds out he once ran with the notorious O'Connell tunnel gang, he'll spend the rest of his life doing hard time behind bars. But Tom's secret is threatened when a horrible murder on his beat seems to have been caused by the same ancient magic that killed his gang.

Cat shifter Cicero is determined to investigate the disappearance of one friend and the death of another, even though no one else believes the cases are connected. When the trail of his investigation crosses Tom's, the very bohemian Cicero instinctively recognizes the uncultured Irish patrolman as his witch. Though they're completely unsuited to one another, Cicero has no choice but to work alongside Tom...all the while fighting against the passion growing within.

Tom knows that taking Cicero as his familiar would only lead to discovery and disaster. Yet as the heat between them builds, Tom's need for the other man threatens to overcome every rational argument against becoming involved.

But when their investigation uncovers a conspiracy that threatens all of New York, Tom must make the hardest decision of his life: to live a lie and gain his heart's desire, or to confess the truth and sacrifice it all.

Fun!

For a gay sexy, fantasy romance with witches & familiars (!) this was a fun listen. It took a chapter or two to understand the premise & landscape but once oriented this was well-constructed and written. As you know this genre can sometimes be too simple-minded and poorly produced; not this one. The narrator does a great job and has a deep, resonant voice. And the story is clever and complex and ... a fun listen.

An enjoyable read

A good story with interesting world building. Worth the credit. Typically top notch narration from Tristan James.

Greatly enjoyed the gay love story.

I kept listening. I couldn't help but find an excuse to keep driving to listen to this story

Fantasy, Mystery and some Sex

I fantasy like Harry Potter but I am a grown man who also likes other men. This book covered most of my needs. Fantasy, a good story, man on man and the narrator was very talented vocally acting out different accents. I can't wait to read The next book.
The only nit picky thing I have to say is everything is a hex. Just a little over used.

Great book, great worldbuilding

Awesome book with an interesting plot, engaging characters and great world building.

The only thing is that I didn't really like how Tom was voiced, that detracted a little bit from my enjoyment and it's the only reason why I won't be listening to this book again even though I really liked it. Also, one of the minor characters is named Dominic Kopecky. I am slavic and so is the surname, so the pronunciation the narrator used grated on me as it should be pronounced KopeTSky not KopeKy.
