Mind Magic

Triad, Book 1

De: Poppy Dennison

Narrado por: Robert G. Davis

Magical species must never mix. According to the rules, Simon Osborne should ignore the children's cries for help. After all, they're werewolf cubs, and he's an apprentice mage. But for once in his life, Simon breaks the rules and rescues the cubs, saving them from a demon intent on draining them of their magic.

Of course, all actions have consequences, and Simon's bold move earns him the displeasure of his peers and the attention of the cubs' alpha, a man named Gray Townsend.

The last thing Gray needs is a mage in his life, but Simon did save his son. Since Simon is now a friend of the pack, Gray doesn't have much choice about it-or the forbidden attraction that goes along with it. Unfortunately for the alpha, he needs Simon's help to track down the demon behind the kidnappings-before it strikes again. Simon and Gray must join forces to protect the pack, even as they struggle to resist the temptation that threatens to destroy them both.

Enthralling Supernatural Book w Adult Themes

Where does Mind Magic rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

MIND MAGIC by Poppy Dennison places in the top three werewolf themed books I currently own on Audible.com, second only to BLUE MOON CAFE by Rick Reed and COVEN OF WOLVES by yours truly. Initially I was interested in listening to this book because it is voice recorded by the same actor who recorded COVEN OF WOLVES. I'm really glad I did. Poppy has a wonderful way of introducing the book's characters that draws you in just enough to want to know more about them. The longing Simon has for a family is so sweet that you yearn to see him reach his goal. At the same time, the handful of sex scenes are quite graphic so it's definitely not sentimental throughout. The book's use of magic is grounded and not over done. Kudos.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Mind Magic?

The scenes that I remember most are when the Simon character sees a strong family unit with the werewolf pack and longs for something similar in his own life. Those scenes made the character all the more real for me. It was a nice balance to highlight between the supernatural action scenes and the sex.

Which character – as performed by Robert G. Davis – was your favorite?

Mr. Davis' characterization of Gray was my favorite. Robert seamlessly goes between sweet and everyday, to a young child, to cold and sinister, to sexy and gruff. His Gray voice was the latter.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

"LOVE COMES IN ALL FORMS" with a werewolf figure in shadow

Any additional comments?

There should be a disclaimer that this book is for adult audiences due to the several graphic sex scenes included, but that said, the story itself is very engrossing. I definitely recommend it.

Listen to your samples first

I’ll be honest, I only got through 15 minutes of this, I’m not sure how the story actually is, I plan to try reading it normally. The narrator lacked any tonal infliction, it made this book impossible to listen to. I think the story has potential, though I’d take another look at the other reviews for more info on that aspect. I will say the little bit I listened to seemed a bit childishly written. If that’s your cup of tea go for it, but I personally couldn’t get through it.

Another Great Read

What made the experience of listening to Mind Magic the most enjoyable?

I love reading books that deal with werewolves and magic, such as Mind Magic. I'm looking forward to reading the rest of the series.

Who was your favorite character and why?

My favorite character would probably be Grey, as he is protective of his family, his 'pack', and the gentlemen who has caught his eye.

What does Robert G. Davis bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

At first, I found Robert's voice a bit ... flat ... but as the book progressed, I was able to put that aside and enjoy the book. He does make the characters interesting.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

No, not really, but I was able to smile and enjoy the book.

Any additional comments?

I definitely would recommend the book to anyone who loves to read. Please enjoy!

It’s ok

This was an ok book, but it left on a bit of a cliffhanger. This is disappointing. I read the blurb for the other books in the series and don’t think I’ll get them. I don’t see how the storyline could be finished without the MCs remaining the same.
The narration was good. Really, I’m more likely to look for more books narrated by this guy than more from this author.
I got this on sale so I’m happy with the purchase.
