Fury of a Phoenix: The Nix Series, Book 1

De: Shannon Mayer

Narrado por: Khristine Hvam

I knew the sins of my past would call to collect what was left of my soul. If I'd known the price I'd pay, I would've sacrificed more to stay hidden from the magic.

In the middle of Wyoming - away from the abnormals of the world - I thought I was free and clear. I started a new life. Found a love I'd never known in a husband, and a son who was my everything.

And in a blinding instant, that life was stolen from me.

The rage of a grieving mother is an ugly beast. More so when she has the skills and killer instinct to back up the wrath and the knowledge that an accident was anything but.

Once more, I will pick up my guns. This time to hunt those who took my husband's and son's lives.

Let them see the assassin, trained to kill abnormals and stalk the shadows again.

Let them see the Phoenix rise from the fragments of a broken life as she burns with a fury that cannot be contained.

Let the killing games begin.

5 Stars!

This is one of the best books I've read and listened to all year. Khristine Hvam is so very talented and my favorite narrator! Shannon Mayer has outdone herself with this book! If I could give it 10 stars I would. I urge you to buy the Audible book and the Kindle version! You won't be disappointed at all.
Looking forward to listening to Blood of a Phoenix. I've read it and it's even better than this one.

Really Enjoyed This!

Not 100% of the time I get a good system generated suggestion, but this book was a great one. I really enjoyed this book, gone through it fast and looking forward to starting the 2nd book soon..

Nix is a good character and the characters around her are interesting too. I wonder what will happen next and I do like that the story didn't end at book 1 and book 2 would be a different story, the story didn't end and it will be continued in book 2.

Another good series to read.

Fantastic story

Shannon Mayer always manages to keep me coming back and wanting more of the story. This book is no different and I can't wait to listen to the next book. The narration is great and I really like how the voice fits so perfectly.

I was given a free audio book in exchange for an honest review.

Fury of a woman scorned

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Which scene was your favorite?

would be a spoiler

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When she has to let Bear go.

Any additional comments?

I think in the world of Shannon Mayer I'm a rookie. I've read and adored the Rylee Adamson series. I've read the Venom books and liked the world/story better than the MC. This was a whole new experience. The beginning is tragic and as a mom some parts were extremely hard especially at the time she looses her boys. I've read some of the reviews that readers had a hard time connecting to Nix or liking her and I can see that BUT if you think about it, it would be hard to connect with someone who only ever loved or was loved by two people that were tragically taken from her. I found by the last 1/4 of the book her character was making a shift that I think will make it easier for people to connect with her. I loved everything about the book and holy cliffhanger batman.....have preordered #2.

Khristine Hvam is one of my all-time favorites and does a fantastic job with the characters.

Kickass Heroine

Another great listen by Shannon Mayer and narrator Kristine Hvam! Shannon has done it again with her Nix series. I cannot wait to listen to the next one in the Nix series. It did lag in the beginning and picked up a little more than half way through the book. The book overall was itself a Phoenix with the ending redeeming the entire book. I am glad that I stuck with it.

I received a free copy of this audiobook in exchange for my honest review.
