Forty Licks and Still Dead (Return of the King)

Magical Midlife Death, Book 10

By: Tia Didmon

Narrated by: Katie Hagaman

A fallen city. A magical test. A dark deal.

When we are forced to travel to a forgotten realm, I learn Rene has a history with the dark warlock who runs it. But our host is taken with me and agrees to give us what we came for, provided I agree to his terms.

Rene isn’t the only person upset by my decision to entertain the creator of the fallen city, and I end up in a battle for my life.

Am I strong enough to protect myself when Rene is caged, or have I fallen into a cleverly laid trap?

Forty Licks and Still Dead, great

Book ten in the Return of the King/Magical Midlife Death, another engaging story in the series. Rene and Raven have things to overcome to try to defeat the King of Lycan. The story grabbed my interest and held my interest as I listened to Katie Hagaman narrate the story.

Great addition to the series

Each book in this series leads to the
next so definitely read them in order
so it make sense .
Great action drama romance and definitely
some mystery as well.
I had the pleasure of reading and listening to this
book.
Easy on the ears.

Good Addition to The Series

This tenth book of the Magical Midlife Death series continues the story from where the last book left off. Raven and Rene, together with the rest of their team, are still dealing with the continuing threats posed by rogue Lycans and vampires. Whilst Rene and Raven leave the city in an attempt to find a mysterious onyx urn, Cass and Constantine are left to deal with the rogue vampires and Lycans who are causing havoc.

As usual, there are unexpected twists and turns. I love this series and I can't wait to see what Tia has in store for us in the next instalment!

The narration by Katie is, as always, excellent.

Trials to come

This is book 10 of Magical Midlife Death and picks up the story where the last book left off. This series has me hooked. It is full suspense, danger and loss. This book builds on the to the plot line. I cannot wait for the next in the series. It does end in a cliffhanger.

Forty Licks and Still Dead (Magical Midlife Death)

This is Magical Midlife Death, Book 10 as well as Return of the King, Book 4. Raven is being targeted by more than just the Lycan king and has to fight for more than just herself in a fallen city. This time she must face a magical test and dark deal in a forgotten realm. But it gets more complex as it tuns out Rene has a history with the dark warlock who runs the forgotten realm. But that is not all, the empowered and purist are also causing problems. Will Raven, Rene and all the vampires prevail or will they find themselves in deeper trouble.
Tia Didmon is an excellent writer who keeps me entertained and waiting to see what is coming next. I enjoyed this series so much I am now listening to the audiobook. It is well worth listening to as Katie Hagaman does a wonderful job narrating the story. She is a delight to listen to. I look forward to reading the next audiobook in this series!
