Owl and the City of Angels

De: Kristi Charish

Narrado por: Christy Romano

The wild second adventure for unforgettable antiquities thief Owl - a modern-day "Indiana Jane" who reluctantly navigates the hidden supernatural world - from the pen of rising urban fantasy star Kristi Charish. For fans of Kim Harrison, Jim Butcher, Jennifer Estep, Jenn Bennett, and the like.

Alix Hiboux, better known as Owl, international antiquities thief for hire, is settling in to her new contract job for Vegas mogul Mr. Kurosawa, a red dragon with a penchant for ancient, supernatural artifacts. And now he has his sights set on some treasures of the mysterious Syrian City of the Dead that are sitting in a recluse's private collection. There's just one wrinkle. To stop the resurrection of an undead army that could wreak havoc on Los Angeles, Owl must break in to a heavily guarded archaeological site in one of the most volatile regions in the world. A detour through Libya and a run-in with Somali pirates sends the clock ticking hastily toward total paranormal disaster.

Meanwhile, Alexander and the Paris vampires have stopped stalking Owl's apartment, but they have by no means forgotten their death grudge against her. To top everything off, Owl finds out the hard way that there is nothing heavenly about the City of Angels....

Not finished, but disappointed

OK--I loved the first book in this series which I eye-read, but I've been pulled right out of this story with the narration--Caracalla (who died in Turkey, by the way, instead of Egypt), I could forgive, but "calliope?"

A great follow up to book one

Even more action, a curse, mummies, vampires, a siren, more incubi... And of course, burial chambers, artefacts & the vampire-attacking cat! Also, an awesome narrator. This one has it all. Supernatural meets Indiana Jones!

Wonderful

This is such a terrific series. Great timing between each of the cataclysmic situations Owl finds herself in. The only thing I was uncomfortable with was the cat Captain's fate left hanging. I hope there is not too much time between this and the next novel's release.

Captain to the rescue!

Loved this continuation of the series. Great reader really brings Owl to life. Can't wait for the next one!
