Until first tragedy and then murder plunge the staff kingdom of Wessex into a dangerous crisis, and Conrad has to draw on all his team’s powers and his own experience to avoid a bloodbath.

Unique story, really fun plots & love characters.

I really enjoyed this entire series. I'm admittedly a fan of series, i am one who can let myself fall into another world and feel like I'm experiencing it if the tale is written well enough. I couldn't get enough of Mark Hayden's Conrad Clarke and his pals. I keep checking weekly to see if there are more of the series on Audible. Will undoubtedly purchase every last one! And Ciaran Saward's narration is spot on. Absolutely perfect snark and the female characters are not lost in the high pitched version of a man's voice. Just a great experience. CAN. NOT. WAIT. FOR. MORE!!!!!!!

I’m giving up

Conrad’s girlfriend Meena is so annoying! In this book several chapters are written from her point of view and I just can’t stand her. I’m giving up on this series, but I’ll check out what else the author’s written as I do like his stories.

Still great and goes deeper into story

I can’t keep up with the magical politics but it’s a lot more fun than real politics. Good plot and good mystery with inclusion of diversity in great ways.

Enjoyable to a point.

In the first books, I loved the world, The Watch and The Invisible College, The author is very talented, but the books are becoming too cumbersome with endless introduction of side characters. The most interesting and fun character was Mr. Mole who left too early. I really enjoyed the books at first, but I really needed a list to keep the characters and their plotlines all straight. I started to make one and then realized that I didn't want to work that hard for books that weren't holding my interest any longer. If the author would just keep to a core cast it would be easier to follow. When my mind starts to drift away from the story, I know I am bored and need to put it down.

If the author starts a new series, I will definitely give it a try.

aimless and pointless

I'm 8 hours into and still have no idea what going on or why it's needed. it's all politics no action. and the politics seem completely arbitrary. nothing connected to any of the previous books. completely discounted except for the maim characters
