Publisher's summary

I always thought the gods were a myth. Then again, I thought the same thing about witches.

I'm no stranger to darkness. I've been dealing with it all my life. That's just part of being a "mutant psychic". I see things and know things that I'd be better off not seeing or knowing. But when my witch powers start to manifest, my life takes on a new direction entirely. Suddenly, I’m recruited by the Shadow Order, a supernatural agency dedicated to the protection of the covens. My primary task? To read supernatural crime scenes. Trust me, at that point the word “dark” takes on a whole new meaning.

When one of those crime scenes opens a door between me and three goddesses hunting for a talisman, I seriously start to reconsider my life choices. Especially when those same goddesses start hunting for me. And when I meet an irresistibly alluring stranger who seems to know me better than I do, I really have to wonder. Because if what he tells me is true, I too carry the blood of the gods in my veins, and only I can unlock the magic needed to save the human race.

Fantastic!

This audiobook was amazing! It was so exciting from the very beginning to the very end. I love how it kind of blended so many different aspects of fantasy into one world. And the world that J.S Malcom created is so different from others that I've read. And I alway appreciate different and originality in my fantasy. The only little problem I had was that I felt like I was missing something the whole time. Like I missed the first book in the series, even though this book says one. I think what happened was there may have been other books in a different series. And this one is a spin off, kinda, maybe. But still, the author still did an amazing job of explaining things so that I never felt lost. And the narrators als did an amazing job. This book was fantastic and I hope I can find more!

This book was given to me at my request (Thank you Audiobook Unleashed!). I am providing an voluntary and honest review.

Brought to life

I really love J.S. Malcom’s series with Autumn, Cassie and Julia and I hope she continues to do more involving the characters. What I loved about the audio version was the life it brought to my imagination. I honed in better on key aspects that appear later in the series. It also helped with pronunciation. I did not like the little of Kiraeans voice that was used and hope that future books with more of his chapters get to use the narrators voice more on his behalf. I definitely would recommend this novel for those wanting adventure or constantly craving what the next step will be.

Great performance

This book is a little hard to follow if you haven’t read the previous series which I have not, so things were confusing at times because the story often referred to things that had happened in other series. While the storyline, characters and world building are great I believe that giving the reader/listener a heads up that this story is a continuation of another story would make it easier for the storyline to be followed.
The narrator did a great job
