Half Wild

De: Sally Green

Narrado por: Carl Prekopp

The second thrilling book in Sally Green's Half Bad trilogy, the inspiration for the Netflix series The Bastard Son & The Devil Himself

"An enthralling fantasy in the Harry Potter tradition."—Time magazine on Half Bad

Kept in a cage for two years by the Council of Fairborn Witches, Nathan was trained to kill his father, the most violent and feared of the Blood Witches. Now Nathan has escaped, and he dreams of a quiet life of freedom with Annalise, the girl he loves—but Annalise is a prisoner, wasting away in a deathlike sleep. Nathan’s friend, Gabriel, is missing, likely dead, and although Nathan has found his unique magical Gift, he can’t control it. The Council's Hunters are on his trail, so he is always on the run. Nathan's only hope of survival is to join with new allies and old enemies in an alliance to bring down the Council, and they want Nathan's help: they, too, want Nathan to be a killer. Maybe that is the only way out. Maybe that is just who he is now…

Set in modern-day Europe, the second book in the Half Bad trilogy is more than a story about witches. It's a heart-poundingly visceral look at survival and exploitation, the nature of good and evil, and the risks we take for love.

Now streaming on Netflix as The Bastard Son & The Devil Himself.

Really good

The narrator is so robotic at first and the story at first is very repetitive so it was hard to get into the story but if you can get over the hump of the first few chapters it picks up pace really quickly and then it gets really good highly recommend

Half better

The next installment is filled with so much entertainment it's like the words project a film in your brain. Such great characters.It's a shame we have to wait another year.

Even better than the first book

Wow. So good. The story and the characters are made so rich with Carl’s expert reading. Highly recommend this series.

Makai

I think this should be made into a movie. I love where this story finished.

Another Hit

The book is even MORE blood pumping, energetic, and emotional roller coaster as the first. Sally Green really conveys the voice of Nathan as a troubled young man looking for his purpose and what he has had to ensure for being who he is. A lot of "nazi regime" mentality kept coming to mind as Sol wrecks havoc to both white witches , black witches, and half breeds.

Didn’t think it could get better

Even better than the first book! The world is fantastic and gets developed even more than i imagined. Plus the pacing is better now that everything is established. I’m looking forward to the nest one!

More people should read this series

It’s fun, exciting, well written and well performed.
I love the changing alliances, the allegories to modern historical things… and the funky ways to incorporate magic of differing forms.

I love the series

I love this book and they way it left on a cliffhanger made me instantly want to listen to the last book

amazballs

narrator was phenomenal. instantly fell in love with his performance in the first book and he continues to show great talent in this one. story fully captivating and immersive. full of excitement in this adventure.

A gem!

I honestly couldn't be happier with this series. It's such a distinct step away from so many contemporary fantasy stories I've read, and I truly love how dark it is.
