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.

Action and Sorcery

Elliot Kay does not disappoint. While not as sexually explicit as her previous works, the story is still adventurous enough to keep me fully engaged.

Great addition to the series

The MC of this branch of the series is real down to earth and had a tough start in life. Despite everything happening to would cause a darker outcome he has his own guidelines and doesn't compromise.

glad to see him back

A very good continuation of the series with new blood and Lore. I'm left wondering who could bring order to the supernatural world now.

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!

fun ride

well that was a fun book with amazing narration. Story is great and I hope there is a direct sequel.

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.

Another great side story.

Fun new characters and great read as always. Only a couple shorter sexy scenes for better or worse, but something about Kay’s writing always has me hooked from beginning to end.

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.

nice offshoot

I liked the tie back to the other serieries with Alex. definitely see the same storyline characteristics. super nice "good guy" gains abilities and turns into robin hood with lots of sex. enjoy elliots writing style. thanks!

A great offshoot of the Good Intentions universe

We follow a new scrappy hero with a unique and wonderful partner as they crash through the supernatural life of LA. They trip over a few characters that seasoned readers and listeners familiar with from the original series, but this can be enjoyed as a standalone. The story is fun and the vocal performance is fantastic. Another excellent book from Elliot Kay.
