Resumen del Editor

Set in the world of the Breedline—a secret species of humans born with the power to shape-shift into wolves—The Curse tells the story of a young boy, Joseph, who, grieving over his mother’s death at the hands of his abusive father, finds his world turned upside down. While his father awaits sentencing, Joseph is placed into the system, going from one foster family to another. And just when things couldn’t get any worse, an evil entity invades his body, introducing itself as the Shadow.

Twenty-one years later, this mysterious demonic spirit continues to inhabit Joseph’s body and manipulate his mind, luring him toward something dark and sinister, something that is beyond his control.

Carrie Randall, a substance abuse counselor who is unsuccessful at dating, comes face-to-face with death when two men approach her in a dark alley. Amid her assault, something resembling a werewolf comes to her rescue in the nick of time. As she tries to process everything, unsure if what she witnessed was real or fantasy, her world suddenly collides with a handsome stranger as though they were somehow brought together by fate.

Despite her past relationships, Carrie finds herself spellbound, falling for Joseph Parker, a handsome yet mysterious journalist who works for an esteemed newspaper in Berkeley, California. But when Carrie discovers his terrifying secrets, she begins to fear for her life.

Now, Carrie is forced to make the hardest decision of her life. She can turn her back on Joseph, or stay and help him fight the demon who desires her soul.

I enjoyed this story. I love a a story that has both happy and sad times in it. Definitely going to listen to the next story to follow this one

Love the story but the narrator is AMAZING!

This is a great story! I loved all the characters! This is not only about Joe and Carrie but a whole slew of other characters whose stories run simultaneously. The story is engaging and entertaining. I was wondering many times “what was going to happen next?”

While I enjoyed this story the narration really brought it to life. Pretty sure I mentioned the numerous characters in here. Well the narrator, Isaiah Fowler, had a different voice for EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. It was amazing! Where has this person been all my listening life? This is a new favorite narrator for me!

Surprising Good

This was a good stand a long book.The voice for the mental hitchhikers was rather iffy, but I could get over it. It was not the polished story of a big-time author, but it was fresh and fun. A look forward to more from this author.

Stand Alone from Breedline Series

Though I was informed this is a stand-alone book there are quite a few references to pervious events and people that I did not have. This is the 1st book by this author I listened to.
Good story, though I wish I knew all the background story too! Narrator does an Excellent job with the various characters voices and the entire storyline.

Interesting Storyline

This book surprised me with the unique storyline. It deals with the conscious decision to do the right thing when the main hero has been possessed by a demon all his life. He finds himself losing spaces of time. There are paranormals who govern the threats to humans. There are many twists and turns in this book. I enjoyed this book. The narrator did an excellent job of keeping me gripped to listening til the end.

The Shadow

I have read several of the Breedline Series works. Like the others, the Curse captures and holds your attention even if you are not a science fiction/fantasy reader. This story is very detailed about the killings, which heightens the theme, and the art of manipulation in the story is very intriguing. It is exceptionally well-written and narrated. The story is very long but is far from boring in any part. I highly recommend it.

superbly entertaining!

Well written and interesting from start to finish, this provides an enjoyable experience. The reader is also quite good! highly recommended.

starts slow but is great

this book starts out really slow but when it picks up it turns into a really good book

I received this in exchange for an honest review. I really enjoyed this audio book. The narrator did a wonderful job with the different characters and each having different personalities and voices. I would recommend this. Good job!
