Publisher's summary

On a sunny summer morning, nulls all over the country are attacked at the same time.

In Boulder, Allison "Lex" Luther barely gets her niece to safety. In Los Angeles, Scarlett Bernard is nearly shot in the back. It seems that a powerful enemy is unhappy with the Old World leaders' plans to form a government, and they've coordinated a strike against those rare individuals who can undo magic itself.

Now Lex, Scarlett, and their trusted friends have a plan to put these attackers on trial...but finding them won't be easy, and stopping them means leaving their own territories behind.

The California null and the Boulder boundary witch, along with allies old and new, will have to travel to Galena, Illinois, a small town near the Mississippi River that serves as an annual playground for vampires.
To protect nulls and safeguard the future of the Old World, Scarlett and Lex team up to fight a battle that's been years in the making.

But Galena has secrets of her own....

Old World War is the 12th and final (for now) book in the Old World series.

ummm…

i was so happy and excited to find out there was a new book in the Old World stories! and, for the most part, it was worth the wait.
what i Don’t understand, is why every character but Lex, has grown. not only as a person, but in their specific talents as well. Lex does nothing but backslide~ every time i turned around, she was doing something stupid or just lame. idk how many times i spoke aloud at the ridiculous things she did or said or whatever. allllll this time she’s had to become a better boundary witch and learn about who She Is, she Hasn’t! the only thing she’s stuck with in Years is Quinn, and even That seems to be in jeopardy! she Talks about how much she Loves him, and yet she’s constantly having to talk herself out of doing who knows what with poor Simon. i’m just Not impressed…
Scarlett, on the other hand, has come a long way, and i like/love Her character more with every book =)
idk MFO, if you write another Old World novel, PlzplzPLZ, Doooo something with Lex!! she’s drowning or Something, and she just gets more and more annoying!!!

Great ending

I enjoyed everything about this book. It was a great wrap up to the story arc. I only hope there is more of Lex's story to come!

Loved it!!

It was a great way to wrap up both series, even if I wish there to be more. This is one of those complex stories where so many of the characters are so broken and honestly so flawed but they just continue putting one foot in front of the other and finding a way forward.

The narrators are very different and rightfully so because the characters are very different. Will say that in the scenes that had both characters it was a bit disconcerting to have Scarlet narrated by Kate and or Lex narrated by Amy. I personally think the final product would have been better had they co-narrated the combined and scenes so each character would maintain a consistent narration voice. but that doesn't take away from the performance at all. it only makes you have to rewind and listen again occasionally to figure out who's actually talking.

Did not disappoint!!’

This book was so worth the wait! I could not put it down! The combination of Lex and Scarlett in the same audio book was SO WORTH IT!!! No spoilers but this series has been one of the best I’ve ever read! The world creation is incredible and the stories are riveting!

Love it

Love the crossover, really love the details, really appreciated the note from the author… it showed how much thought and details went into each book within this series. - Thank you! <3

Loved it!!!

I loved having two different narrators for Lex and Scarlett!! The storyline was great, and I was thrilled to have more Scarlett content.

Loved it!

I really loved this crossover and how the storylines and characters came together! Couldn’t get enough.

Another fantastic story!

Melissa F Olson just doesn't write a bad story! I bought the ebook when it was released, and have anxiously awaited the audio version. It did no disappoint! Loved that both Amy McFadden & Kate Rudd share the narration for their respective heroines. Old World War was a fantastic mix of Scarlett & Lex's stories, making great use of all the characters we have grown to love. I hope we get to revisit these worlds again, but for now it was an exciting and satisfying send off! Well done! Highly recommend!!

Great book

I have enjoyed all of Melissa’s books and this one was especially good because it brought the groups together

Real places tie two stories together

Keep you on your toes and interesting. Really enjoyed reading what would happen next- very good read!
