I’m the thief, but the death god stole everything from me: my heart, my life, and my humanity—binding me to him forever.
My human life is over. The Sword betrayed me, put a literal knife to his chest, and now I’m supposed to share my new immortal fae life with him as his fated mate? Yeah, keep dreaming, buddy.
As it turns out, you can take the humanity out of the thief, but you can't take the thief out of the, er… immortal. Apparently, the Sword’s castle sits on top of ancient treasure, and I’m more than happy to relieve him of it. No honor amongst thieves and murderers, am I right?
But when my friends—our friends—show up on the run and needing help, I’m pulled deeper into a war that’s raged for centuries between gods and humans. Sola and her minions are burning through our country, leaving a trail of bodies and ruin in their wake.
And when the treasure under his keep finds me first, it ties me to my so-called fated mate more than ever. War threatens at our door, and I need to decide whose side I’m on or say goodbye to my second chance at life.
Fate might try to have her way with me, but chaos has never played by the rules.

I can’t believe the unmitigated gall of giving us this 6 hour “book,” which is just the second half of a 15 hour book, and switching up the narration to the point where the characters are unrecognizable. Both narrators are completely different from “book 1”: the female narrator makes Kyrie sound like a delicate grandma instead of a scrappy, sassy, spitfire and the male narrator makes The Sword sound like a whipped, sweater-vested grandpa instead of the dark, mercenary, deliciously sexy God of Death.
“I forgive you- but I can’t forget.”
On top of switching to two wildly different narrators, this second half used dual narration (where each narrator reads the entire chapter for his/her POV) whereas the first half used duet narration (where the male narrator voiced The Sword’s dialogue no matter whose POV was on and vice versa). There’s even a repeated, record-skip moment in the recording in chapter 32. All of the audio issues distracted from the story.
“The man in front of me, the god, he believes in me, in spite of knowing all of my faults … and for that faith in me, I might love him just a little bit.”
Because of the audio issues, I’m not sure, but I think this was my favorite story from this author. It’s fun, magical, unique and surprisingly heartfelt. There are some really nifty plots and characters that were either well written (but I missed it because of the narration) or they needed more detail to truly make the story outstanding. As-is, it felt like the final hour rushed the hows and whys of victory. Why exactly did Kyrie need to die, and yet not die at the end of “book” 1? Why bring a ragtag group together, separate them at the end of “book” 1, and reunite them in this “book” 2, only for them to do so little to achieve victory?
The core story is so good that, if the author fleshed out the story and put it in one book with either pair of narrators, I’d give it a go. I suspect I’d love it. But, as offered here, I recommend reading the book instead.
