Story4.5 out of 5 stars 42
Necromancer is such an ugly word, but it's a title Eric Carter is stuck with. He sees ghosts, talks to the dead. He's turned it into a lucrative career putting troublesome spirits to rest, sometimes taking on even more dangerous things. For a fee, of course. When he left LA fifteen years ago, he thought he'd never go back. Too many bad memories. Too many people trying to kill him. But now his sister's been brutally murdered and Carter wants to find out why.

It has been 20 years since the end of the war. The dictatorial Augurs, once thought of almost as gods, were overthrown and wiped out during the conflict, their much-feared powers mysteriously failing them. Those who had ruled under them, men and women with a lesser ability known as the Gift, avoided the Augurs' fate only by submitting themselves to the rebellion's Four Tenets.

When the fae beckon, few resist. Even fewer return. As a veil witch, I'm used to taking out the supernatural trash. Everything from poltergeists to vampires, you name it and I've dealt with it. So opening a paranormal cleanup business just seemed to make sense. If I'm already dealing with the pests, why not get paid? But when I accidentally breach the faerie realm to encounter a girl recently reported missing, start seeing the ghost of a witch whose disappearance has never been solved, and discover a Book of Shadows that opens only for me, I can't just go back to business as usual.

The dictatorial Augurs, once thought of almost as gods, were overthrown and wiped out during the conflict, their much-feared powers mysteriously failing them. Those who had ruled under them, men and women with a lesser ability known as the Gift, avoided the Augurs' fate only by submitting themselves to the rebellion's Four Tenets.

When Ray Lilly was 13 years old, a handgun accident landed his best friend, Jon Burrows, in a wheelchair and turned Ray into a runaway and petty criminal. Fifteen years later, Ray returns home after a stint in prison; he's determined to go straight, but he knows he can't do that without making peace with his old friend. What Ray doesn't expect is that Jon has just received a mysterious cure - not only is he out of his wheelchair, he seems stronger and faster than...well, pretty much anyone.

I've always had a weak spot for strange ladies. One very beautiful girl had even warned me that she was, get this, a vampire. But did I listen? No.

Taylor is the name, John Taylor. My card says I'm a detective, but what I really am is an expert on finding lost things. It's part of the gift I was born with as a child of the Nightside. I left there a long time ago, with my skin and sanity barely intact. Now I make my living in the sunlit streets of London. But business has been slow lately, so when Joanna Barrett showed up at my door, reeking of wealth, asking me to find her runaway teenage daughter, I didn't say no.

If you are missing Dresden...
As a huge fan of The Dresden Files, this story caught my eye and I decided to give it a try. I was NOT disappointed! There is even a slight allusion to Dresden which gave me a chuckle. I loved the story and look forward to the rest of the series.

One of the better urban fantasy books
Really enjoyed the author's writing style and I think he is doing a good job of building an extended cast of recurring characters - a MUST in any ongoing series. Liked his handling of the magic system in his world as well. One of the problems I have with a lot of urban fantasy books is that the main characters are jerks but I really like Alex Verus so far.
The only problem I had with the narrator is that he seemed way older than I pictured the character to be in the novels. When I decided to take this as an older narrator recounting stories of his life then I really enjoyed his performance. Pleasure to listen to - loved the accent.

BRITISH VERSION OF DRESDEN
It started a little slow but I really enjoyed this book. I had heard about it a few times but, never looked into listening to it until now.
I feel it is going to get better and better as the series continues.

All the Good Story Lines Have Been Use?
The author started out with a couple of clever references to a certain popular urban wizard/P.I. Unfortunately, the story proceeded to be a nearly item-for-item rehash of The Dresden Files. Even so, it wasn't a bad listen. The story moved right along. The villains were properly villainous; the good guy saves the day at the end with the help of his mismatched companions. The narrator did a good job.
I haven't yet decided whether to try the second book in the series.

A nice compliment to Iron Druid and Dresden
I know it was a tip o' the hat to the Dresden Files (Dresden is even alluded to in beginning) and I was ok with that. Overall not a bad way to spend the day.

Great story.. AMAZING narrator
Where does Fated rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
The first audiobook I listened to twice.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Cynder, but I'm not sure why exactly.
What does Gildart Jackson bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
He has a fantastic way of conveying the humor of the book without being cheesy.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Some parts did make me laugh, but mostly I just felt like I always wanted to hop in my car to hear what was going to happen next.
