Resumen del Editor

When a series of bombs go off in a Therian youth center, injuring members of THIRDS Team Destructive Delta and causing a rift between agents Dexter J. Daley and Sloane Brodie, peace seems unattainable. Especially when a new and frightening group, the Order of Adrasteia, appears to always be a step ahead. With panic and intolerance spreading and streets becoming littered with the Order's propaganda, hostility between Humans and Therians grows daily. Dex and Sloane, along with the rest of the team, are determined to take down the Order and restore peace, not to mention settle a personal score. But the deeper the team investigates the bombings, the more they believe there's a more sinister motive than a desire to shed blood and spread chaos.

Discovering the frightful truth behind the Order's intent forces Sloane to confront secrets from a past he thought he'd left behind for good, a past that could not only destroy him and his career, but also the reputation of the organization that made him all he is today. Now more than ever, Dex and Sloane need each other, and, along with trust, the strength of their bond will mean the difference between justice and all-out war.

Blood and Thunder

What did you like best about this story?

Blood & Thunder is the second book in the THIRDs series and another strong installment.

"When a series of bombs go off in a Therian youth center, injuring members of THIRDS Team Destructive Delta and causing a rift between agents Dexter J. Daley and Sloane Brodie".

Dex is a person who goes all out. He gives 100% of himself to the job and his personal life.

When he puts himself in danger in order to save his team member, Sloane loses it.

Part of it is the chase after group responsible fr the bombings, and another part is due to his feelings and personal and sexual relationship with Dex.

Sloane is closed off and doesn't let himself trust the connection he has with Dex.

Dex makes Sloane feel, makes him laugh and live again. Sloane has a hard time letting go of the pain of losing Gabe.

I loved Dex and in this book. his love for Sloane was evident. He took care of him as a true partner does.

He was also extremely patient with Sloane,when any other man would have let go.

Dex understood Sloane's pain and was willing to wait. It was heartbreaking reading about him in an intimate scene and having Sloane utter Gabe's name .

In Blood & Thunder we see a lot of progress both relationship wise and professionally.

After Dex gave himself completely to Sloane, I loved seeing him jealous after seeing Dex with his ex boyfriend.

What does Mark Westfield bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I loved Mark's narration. He brought all the characters to life.

He did a marvelous job narrating easy going Dex, hard ass Sloane, playful Cael and all the other members of the squad.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes!!

It has non stop action, funny and sexy times & heartbreaking moments .

This book is pure entertainment in ebook and audio format.

Love it

best couple ever love the voice just hoping Ash's voice is deeper in his and keal's book. Worth the money and time to listen. reread story so many times figured upgrade to audible!!!

Not very deep but enjoyable

To me this is a "feel good" series so far. Everything between Dex and his partner Sloan seemed to go a little too smoothly, but for me that is OK. At this point the characters are all extremely likable but not much depth just yet. The book is concentrating on the two main characters and fleshing out their personalities particularly Sloan's character. He has a deep dark secret that he is keeping from Dex which I feel under normal circumstances would cause trouble in a relationship but as I said before with these two it isn't much of a problem as both are very patient with each other. The world the author has created is also still being fleshed out and is very interesting with the two races, humans and Therians, learning how to get along with each other. The book deals nicely with racial inequality, some people very excepting of each other and others extremely bigoted and hateful of those who are different from themselves. For the most part however the book deals with the relationship between the two main characters that started in the first book of the series as they are discovering more about each other as their adventure unfolds. There is also a fair amount of hot sex between the two men which is tastefully done. As this is an audiobook the narrator does a good job with the characters different voices and personalities. He also throws in some special effects such as talking to each other through communication devices which is kind of neat. Overall I enjoyed the book very much and look forward to the next installment.

Excellent 2nd installment

This is a great series, but you really have to read in order to get the full effect. In this installment Dex and Sloane's relationship continues to progress, however Sloane is having a hard time moving forward from Gabe. He continues to push Dex away until he realizes how much he has to lose if he loses Dex. There is action and drama as the search for Isaac continues and we get more insight to some of the other couples in Destructive Delta. The witty banter and interaction between the characters continues to be my favorite thing about this series. I've already read the 3rd book and can't wait for it to come to Audible. The narrator's silky bass voice is great for most of the characters and he does a great job. Definitely worth a credit.

Awesome

Amazingly done I love how the narrator play with the words well done 👍👍👍 keep doing what you are doing

so good

love the romance, drama, passion and how everything comed together to make a great suspense and romance.

WOW!!! Even better than the first book

I love this book and this narrator! With out mark Westfield I doubt Dex would be as memorable. Best book!

the perfect next step

each part of this book just keeps getting better and better. I can't wait to read/listen to the next book. I own this in Audible as well as Kindle

good story. hilarious main character.

while the story is good, and the Hero funny as all ... well. There is an annoying lack of synonyms for the names. Dex did this, Dex did that, dex dex dex. it is actually allowed to write he and his once in a while (a whole lot more than is done). we are not as readers so dum we are not able to reason out of whom the sentence refers to. pleace - the book is amazing, so pleace do not dum it down.

Lovin' It

The only thing better than listening to this, would be watching an actual movie of this series, because this is so good. Charlie Cochet did such a good job writing the story, and Mark Westfield did such a good job narrating the story, that together it was just magical.
