Sworn to the Shadow God

Aspect and Anchor, Book 2

De: Ruby Dixon

Narrado por: Jillian Macie

Adventure. It's what my boring life is missing, so when I fall through a portal into another world, I'm excited. Here, I'm important. Here, I'm special.

I find out just how special when I meet Death. He's been exiled to the mortal realm to work through his flaws, and he's just as spoiled and awful as you'd think. Rhagos, the Shadow Lord, is arrogant and rude and controlling and demands to get his way. He's selfish. He's impossible.

He's also utterly gorgeous. Magnetic. Lonely. And strangely protective of me.

Thanks to a magic bond, I now serve him as his anchor to the mortal realm. It means that I'm his conscience, his guide...and the target for any assassin or glory-seeker. After a few days of this, I'd rather go home than continue on this adventure.

As the world falls down around us and we're hunted simply for existing, I find myself wondering what it'd be like to serve the lonely god of death...in all ways. To kiss him. To touch him. To bed him.

Except...I'm supposed to be finding a way home, not trying to kiss Rhagos. No matter how tempting he is. No matter how much he stares at my lips. No matter how much I want it.

Contains mature themes.

A good listen.

I loved the storyline and the readers did a great job. Only thing that kind of worked my nerves was the constant mentioning of her small chest. It didn't add to the story. The God made the request when setting up his plan to find an anchor to love but once the anchor was selected maybe mentioning she didn't have a large chest one or two would have been enough.

couldnt put it down.

i absolutely loved this story, loved that the main characters didnt have a easy road and that she was headstrong. also loved the epilogue and there time there and how things are settling there amazing book! and the sex scenes are AMAZING!!!!

Good follow up book

Overall I really liked this story. Max drove me crazy, but that had a lot to do with the character having a lot of TSTL moments and the narrator choosing a whiny nasally voice for her. Ruby Dixon is a very talented author and even when I’m not 100% on board with a character I still enjoy the overall story. I’m looking forward to the next book in the series.

DONT SLEEP ON THIS SERIES!

If you like Icehome and the Fireblood Dragon series, you need to listen to these ones too! this is book 2 so go back and read Bound to the Battle God 1st. BUT THIS UNIVERSE IS AWESOME!! I CAN NOT WAIT FOR MORE OF THESE STORIES!! LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!

Great Series

Excellent series, great story line and perfect amount of spice. Highly recommend to anyone who enjoys fantasy

One of the best books I have read in 2023

I guess you can call this a slow burn but I love the romance build up and the twist and turns she takes you through. Also love the new world she builds and the main character for me is really relatable and finally a girl who isn’t completely boring or unrealistically beautiful and courageous 🤣.

great book

this is an excellent book the story line is stealing the characters of well-developed unexpected twist plots I love it good book

Ruby Dixon is legendary.. this one is kinda meh

I loved Aron in the first book. Personality, some humanity, complexity. Funny and interesting. Rhagos is very one-note. It’s hard to stay engaged. And Max… Max is no Faith. Max is whiney and also one-note. Literally one of the quotes is “I want to help them. I want to help everyone”…. Booooring. For a gamer, she has no grasp on this world. I would’ve expected her to be a little stronger and less of the “I want everyone to be happy and I have to save everyone” type. I’m struggling to finish but will do my best to complete bc Ruby Dixon is a goddess.

must read.

funny and sweet and a twist. read between the lines. it starts from the beginning.

Amazing!

I love this series!! Rhagos + Max forever!! Narration was great story was A++ do yourself a favor and start with bound to the battle god then get this one
