Blood and Sand

The Pride, Book 3

De: Jordan L. Hawk

Narrado por: Greg Tremblay

War has come to the streets of Chicago…

Sam Cunningham didn’t set out to work for a gangster, but his job as Mickey Sullivan’s hexmaster seems safe enough…until a gang war puts a target on both of their backs.

Cheetah-shifter Alistair Gatti is desperate to keep his family’s speakeasy up and running. But with a brutal assassin killing off the city’s bootleggers, his options are growing slimmer with every passing day.

Their one chance to remain safe and keep The Pride afloat lies in the form of an ancient hex looted from an Egyptian tomb. If Sam wants to escape Sullivan’s grasp, he needs to recreate the hex and get it to work. But in a gang war fought by magic as well as guns, the odds are in no one’s favor, and the streets of Chicago will soon run red with blood.

A Great End To The Trilogy

The characters and plot are so enjoyable, I hope that the author adds to the witch/familiar universe.

Mage and Familiar

I’ve followed Jordan Hawk’s The Pride series with true enjoyment. Each book brings both a charming vernacular from Prohibition times, like brilliant mage Sam called wisehead by his bodyguard, and a ruthless Chicago mob boss forcing shifter members of The Pride speakeasy to choose sides. I particularly enjoyed Hawk’s world of hex creation and copy. Anyone who could afford a hex, like keeping your clothes clean, bought a hex. This latest book made Egyptian artifacts promising to bring the dead back to life and gang warfare the final crossroads the Pride family had to choose in order to survive.
Excellent narration by a talented voice actor. I apologize for not noting his name 😔. Kudos to Jordan Hawk for choosing a human voice actor rather than an AI virtual voice.
