Sirens of Los Angeles

Blood Web Chronicles: The Novella

De: Caedis Knight

Narrado por: Corrieanne Stein

Dive into a fantasy world hidden among our own - a dark world full of vampires, witches, werewolves, fae, shifters, ghosts, and mermaids. The Blood Web Chronicles series by Caedis Knight (the pen name of established fantasy authors Jacqueline Silvester and N J Simmonds) is perfect for fans of Crescent City, True Blood, and Veronica Mars.

Find out how Saskia de la Cruz became a reporter for paranormal newspaper The Blood Web Chronicle in this delicious prequel novella.

Saskia is a Verity Witch - her only magic being that she can tell the truth from a lie. When she sets off for the glitzy shores of Malibu to spend spring break with her sister, Mikayla, her one goal is to forget her university worries and issues with outdated witch hierarchies and drown them in surfer six-packs and tequila cocktails.

But when local influencers and male models start washing up ashore drained of their youth, Saskia knows something wicked dwells in the deep. Which is perfectly fine because she plans on staying the hell away from the water! That is until her powerful, siren-obsessed sister disappears, and the search leads Saskia deeper than she ever thought possible. Accompanied by beautiful but suspicious surfers Eden and Zee, Saskia will have to travel for her answers to the home of Hollywood’s vainest residents - the ocean floor.

With vibrant characters, pause-resisting suspense, and steamy romance, this new series has been described by internationally renowned author Anna Day as “addictive, sexy, and wickedly funny”.

Sadistic Sexy Sirens!

Hello Gemmies! I have an exciting audiobook review to share with you today. Sirens Of Los Angeles by Caedis Knight is the prequel novella to Vampires of Moscow. Set is sun kissed Malibu California this book sets the stage for The Blood Web Chronicles series. I originally devoured this novella in e format in one sitting. So I was super excited to revisit this gem in audio format.

Sirens of Los Angeles is an engaging, fast paced, page-turning thrill ride, full of secrets, magic, sexy romance, sirens, beautiful beaches, and provocative humor. There are themes of sisterhood, dealing with familial issues, self discovery, love, betrayal, strength and perseverance.

There is so much to unpack! Let's start with the world building. Caedis Knight has created a lush vivid contemporary world that has a complex magical system, super scary and super sexy monsters! This unique story is not only beautifully written, it is full of diverse, complex, interesting characters. Saskia as a main character is relatable and endearing. She has a laundry list of issues but she's also persistent and never gives up. I found myself fully invested in her and rooting for her every step of the way. For my fellow monster lovers, there is so much paranormal goodness going on I can hardly stand it! We get witches, weres, sirens, vamps....you name it! I am so looking forward to meeting more of these creatures in future books!

Corrieanne Stein is great Saskia! Her narration is perfectly paced and she is able to convey just the right amount of snark into Saskia's voice to bring the character to life. I wish there was a little more differentiation in voice between the various characters. But overall this was an enjoyable listen!

If you are a fan of sadistic sirens, witty witches, steamy romance, sisterhood, action, mysteries, page turning suspense, and a diverse offering of paranormal creatures, then go read this book! I give Sirens of Los Angeles 5 out of 5 gems. I cannot wait to read more stories set in this universe! Happy Reading!
