Sins of the Past

The Darkness Within Saga, Book 0

By: JD Franx

Narrated by: Simon Vance

Yrlissa Blackmist has been a high-ranking member of the Broken Blade Assassin's Guild for longer than most family lines have existed.

Such a long life of killing has left plenty of dangerous enemies in its wake. An ancient witch coven, a jealous assassin, and even a demon lord all have old scores to settle.

With one last contract to fulfill, Yrlissa hopes to be free from her past and her guild forever so she can disappear with her husband and young daughter. But the past doesn't forget so easily, and neither will a betrayed guild of magical assassins. Yrlissa's only concern is to keep her new family safe, but with enemies closing in on all sides, will they become a distraction she cannot afford?

I want more

is there more to this story?
slow to start but I am completely committed by the end.

A great introduction

It's a little bit convoluted but it's a fantastic way to open a storyline like this one

Didn't grasped me.

This introductory book didn't present a good first impression of the story. It can lead to an interesting idea, but it has been done before.

Good insights into first book

This is book 0.5 of the series - a prequel - and it will make little sense if you haven’t read book 1 first. The first book stands alone very well without this, but it does provide further insight into one of the main characters, enhancing the storyline.

took a moment, but got me interested!

it took a little bit for me to get into it but so far it seems to have reeled me in!
