Echo Fort

Sins of the Zodiac, Book 2

De: Caroline Peckham, Susanne Valenti

Narrado por: Bridget Bordeaux, Jake Bordeaux

The sky is burning. The Reapers are keeping secrets. Vampires roam the wastes.

And I’m headed down a path of destruction which can only end in death.

I’m a soul cast adrift on a tide of grief and lies. A clock ticking down the moments to my inevitable destruction, and all I can do is race towards it.

The nations are caught in this endless battle for supremacy and it’s hard to see myself as anything other than a pawn in the twisted games I’m helpless to control.

The Waning Lands are screaming, soaked in blood for so long that even the rivers run red with it. But those screams are whispering riddles that only some of us can hear, begging us to see the signs and listen to the meaning beneath the words we chant so obediently.

What if there is something more to this war? What if winning isn’t what actually matters? What if our magic isn’t the thing that truly divides us? My heart is hardened to the wants of the world and all who occupy it, yet still I hear them call my name. Perhaps it’s time I started listening and found out why the stars have set us this fate. Or if not the stars, then who? Something is rotting at the heart of our lands. So now I have a choice to make. Will I seek out the decay and work to destroy it? Or will I join it in its destruction of this world in vengeance for all the suffering it has offered me?

I’m starting to want things I shouldn’t want. Desire a man I should hate. Care for a warrior I should only wish to harm. The point is, I’m beginning to feel like more than just another pawn in this endless game. But if I want to be the one who rolls the dice then I’m going to have to pay the price of playing for real.

I only wanted to claim revenge for what I’d lost.

Maybe Destiny isn’t done with me yet.

**Book 2 in the series will leave you cursing the stars and perhaps the authors too. You'll be left hoarse from screaming profanities and desperate for more of the morally grey Fae who lurk between the pages despite all they’ve done to your poor heart...**

Hunger Games meets ACOTAR meets Wicked

This story is turning out to be huge, perhaps even more epic than Zodiac Academy. Characters are faced with tough decisions about loyalty and purpose. The book is very thought-provoking when it comes to systemic oppression. Can't wait for book 3!

Amazing story

Loved the whole story but hated the cliffhanger at the end. Kept me rooted to the story and wanting more. Can't wait for the third installment!!

so good!

I need more! I love that we are experiencing another side of Solaria; there are elements that are familiar in context of ZA but known to this cast of characters differently or not at all. to say that I am riveted is an understatement!! I can't wait for the next part!

This series keeps getting better!

Well, it’s official. I loved this book more than the first one. There were more POV chapters in Echo Fort, both from old and new characters. Vesper continues to be my favorite, but I love Everest too!! And the absolute angst between them and the men I’m assuming they’re supposed to end up with is *chef’s kiss*. Bridget and Jake are forever favorite narrators of mine. They always give an outstanding performance.

great characters, good story line

I enjoyed both book one and two. The story is interesting and has some references to Zodiac Academy.

Loved it, left me with Azul huevos (lady version)

Really liked the turn of the series compared to the author’s other series. It feels more mature and developed. I’d like to know more about the worlds as a whole, but overall it stepped away from focusing primarily on the academy or school and really put the emphasis on the characters.

But what’s the girl Gotta do get a 🌶️🌶️ scene?! There is a lot of dancing around it in this book.

Everything !

I am absolutely obsessed with this series. The story and characters are amazing, and the voices are so good too. This is my new favorite series! Can’t wait for Cinder Vale 💖🥰

That ending....my heart 😭

absolutely love this book and cannot believe that ending!!!!!! book 3 cannot come soon enough!

Loved the world building!

The first book caught my interest and this one was definitely a good follow up to it. I’m interested to see where this series is going to go since so much happened in this book.

All the things we love about the twisted sisters

This isn’t a spoiler. I just think it’s fun to pick a favorite character for the series early on and see if that shifts by the end of the series. I was obsessed with fury in book one and I’m obsessed with fury in book two. All the enemies to lovers the twisted sisters are known for. And at this point I’m excited to see if character alliances shift completely in the next book. I loved every character in this installment. Vespers arc was a little slow at times for me. I loved all the characters surrounded by Everest though. I’m so curious to see how many different directions her character will go moving forward

All in all GREAT second story

My only complaint is always that I wish their books were done in duet or full cast duet narration. It would make these stories epic and immersive. I’m not a fan of dual even though Bridget and Jake are two of the only narrators I don’t mind in dual. And I know the zodiac academy is being done in graphic audio. But I’m not fan of the sounds. They are always SO cheesy and distracting. Duet and Fullcast duet are the best narration styles. Other than that, I have no complaints. It’s also more of a suggestion than a complaint. Hopeful for future duet narrated books from them :)
