Grand Theft Sorcery

De: Elliott Kay

Narrado por: Tess Irondale

The vampire lord of Los Angeles is dead, plunging the nightlife into chaos. His subjects fight over his title and his missing treasure hoard. The conflict pushes werewolves, sorcerers, and djinn closer than ever to open war.

Repo man Evan Murphy knows nothing of the supernatural. He only wants a roof over his head and food for his cats. When a risky job lands him in the dungeon of a Hollywood Hills necromancer, a forgotten god offers him the power to escape—making him the target of a beautiful immortal mercenary and every monster within a hundred miles. Evan’s new magic may save the city from its shadows, but only if he can save himself.

another banger!

Elliott Kay knocks another one out of the park! I love that he wrote a story about a new character in his previous universe. he tied in just enough from the previous series to establish the theme, but let the new characters shine on their own.

Great Series

I enjoy the whole series from this author. Like artists through history, I should warn of content that clearly illustrates the author's views on sociopolitical and cultural beliefs. Due to that, it bears mentioning that someone who can't enjoy work by authors that shows those sorts of opinions might not be able to get into it. That said, I highly enjoy the writing quality, character development, and witty humor throughout the series. The spicy scenes are done well, narration is amazing, and the story is the focus throughout.

Excellent!

Great continuation of this series without rehashing. Very interesting new characters. Tess Irondale hits it out of the park. Already impatient for the next book!

Fantastic Story and Voices

Tess Irondale is the best. The story was fantastic, and a fun, funny adventure! This was a fabulous addition to the Good Intentions world.

Content warning is misleading

There is very little explicit sex despite the content warning’s implication so listen to this for the story and narrator because that’s what’s good about this book.
