An Alex Verus Novel from the New Master of Magical London

De: Benedict Jacka

Narrado por: Gildart Jackson

Alex Verus faces his dark side in this return to the best-selling urban fantasy series about a London-based mage.

To protect his friends, Mage Alex Verus has had to change - and embrace his dark side. But the life mage Anne has changed too and made a bond with a dangerous power. She's going after everyone she's got a grudge against - and it's a long list.

In the meantime, Alex has to deal with his arch-enemy, Levistus. The Council's death squads are hunting Alex as well as Anne, and the only way for Alex to stop them is to end his long war with Levistus and the Council, by whatever means necessary. It will take everything Alex has to stay a step ahead of the Council and stop Anne from letting the world burn.

Tense plot, with great characters and an engaging long-term arc.

Benedict Jacka is a fantastic author and a master of the genre. Alex Verus and company have come a long, long way. His world feels even darker than the The Dresden Files. I do miss the comparatively happier endings from The Dresden Files, but these stories are definitely fantastic.

Great

Great. Continuing the previous book's pace and it's the perfect prelude to the ending of this series. I think I love this even more than any other series I've read so far. Rich, not black and white, shifting.
