Publisher's summary

One girl. One wizard. One hell of a spell.

As London is ravaged by a devastating curse which renders citizens all good or all bad, a mistake by one of the surviving PureHearts puts the whole group in danger, and thrusts Olivia Brown into a leadership position she neither wants nor thinks she can handle.

Now, with the help of her loyal PureHeart friends, Olivia must learn to master the gift she possesses, whilst unraveling the mysteries of her past, to learn how to protect those left she cares about, and defeat the vengeful and deranged necromancer who cast the spell.

Only by leading the PureHearts to safety and defeating the wizard will Olivia survive, prevent the evil curse from spreading, and maintain the presence of light in the world.

Hmmm….

I will be honest I struggled with this book. It too me 3 times to get past the first chapter. I am not sure what it was to be honest. I think it was the wording by the author. I understood the violence be that it was quite brutal at times. I understood the way the author was trying to go but it just missed the mark for me. I guess I expected more from the savior/chosen one. I was disappointed that there was more to the final confrontation. I will say that the narration was really good. I though she did a great job bringing the characters to life and I knew who was speaking. In the end it was just ok but could of been so much better.

First book from author

Interesting take on magic good vs evil
It took a while to get into but pretty much the world has been split into two and you are either good or evil.
There’s one chosen one who can beat the evil wizard that turned most of the world evil.
I think the reason I’m giving this 3 stars is because I do t believe that someone is either completely evil or completely good 🤷🏼‍♀️

I just think the story wasn’t quite where it could be.
I did however enjoy the narration

Great story

I really liked this story. It's a nice quick story but has plenty of twists to make it interesting. Narrator does a great job.

very interesting story

This is an interesting story about a world of magic, and how it can corrupt people. And as always. Good will always win.
The narrator did an excellent job in reading this, and I would love to listen to more of her work. would recommend this book to anyone

Good story!

I liked this story. The storyline takes some turns I wasn't expecting. It took some getting used to with the way the story was read. Not the voice of the reader but the style it was read in. Over all done well.

Good versus evil

Light Magic was a very interesting read. It’s your typical “good versus evil” story, but I found myself questioning what it means to be good or evil as defined by this story, and maybe there’s more under the surface of their world. I’m not sure if the author plans on writing additional stories, but there’s a lot more opportunity for this universe to unfold.

The narrator Krys Janae had a very unique style, capturing a cool and almost restrained personality, yet she still maintained levels of necessary emotiveness throughout. I did find the pacing a bit slow, but I would much rather too slow than too fast, as the app is more forgiving to speeding up vs slowing down.

Thanks to Craig Blanc for a complementary reader copy of this audiobook.

light Magic

this was a really good book. lots of drama and conflict. people just trying to Survive. and only one person to help them but like always she doesn't believe in herself till the very end. but at least she ends up helping and gets the bad guy.
