Magic Dark, Magic Divine

Warrior of the Divine Sword, Book 1

De: A.J. Locke

Narrado por: Bianca Drew

Falling asleep for almost 300 years was never part of Pennrae's plan.

Of course, when you're a mercenary with magical abilities and defy a spellbinding prophecy...bad stuff happens.

Now, magic is long gone from the world. So Penn works as a karate instructor, trying very hard to dodge her hot, flirty, and super annoying colleague, Callan. All is well until a Jigori - a nightmarish magic-eating monster - shows up at a New York City street fair, forcing Penn to use her Shaper magic, which allows her to transform wood and metal into deadly weapons.

Now, the Jigori's master has her scent and their eye on stealing her 300 years of life. If they succeed, Penn succumbs to centuries of sleep again, and magic will be unleashed on a completely unprepared world.

And to add to her ridiculously complicated life, something isn't quite right with Callan. Which she could figure out if it weren't for that evil, apocalyptic plot she's trying to stop. But Penn may not have a choice - Callan could be the secret weapon she needs to save the world....

Contains mature themes.

Interesting story

Well developed character and an interesting story. It kept me wanting to know what would happen next.

Great adventure

Fun with lots of twists, feel good adventure, glad for a happy ending. Will make this author a favorite.

Excellent narrative weaving

I’m invested and looking forward to what comes next as the story continues to advance.

The ratings don't do this one justice.

I really enjoyed the book. This genre is a light, fun magical universe type book. The world building was decent, but the characters are really good. The story was interesting and makes sense. Plus, this is a great lead up to the second book. Fun, easy listen.

Love the story

The story line was great and that’s what kept me listening but the narrator sounded like AI.
