The Alchemist and an Amaretto

The Guild Codex: Spellbound Series, Book 5

De: Annette Marie

Narrado por: Cris Dukehart

As a guild bartender, I can handle pretty much anything - mages, sorcerers, witches, the occasional demon. But show me anything family-related and I'd rather run for the hills. It doesn't even have to be my family.

So I have no idea why I thought spending the holidays with Aaron's mom and pop was a good idea.

Meeting his famous parents is already terrifying enough, but I've got a bigger problem. Students of his family's renowned mage academy are being attacked on the grounds - and somehow no one has seen a single assailant? Unexplained tracks litter the nearby woods, rumors of forbidden alchemy are circulating the campus...and Ezra has been acting strangely since we arrived.

Something deadly is brewing in the shadow of Sinclair Academy, and the longer we take to uncover it, the more dangerous it becomes. But no matter the risk, we'll protect the students.

And Aaron's parents too, I suppose. If we have to.

Make sure to check out the companion series, The Guild Codex: Demonized, available now, and The Guild Codex: Warped, coauthored by Rob Jacobsen.

Holy magic hands!

Whoa! I knew this was going to be an awesomely chaotic book. I did but e level of crazy had me on the edge of my seat. I love the bonds that Aaron, Ky, Ezra and Tori have. I love the friendship that Tori and Cyn have. Throw them all together in an action packed, and at times intense, whirlwind of magic, animal attacks and a whole mess of snobby alumni jerkface a and you have one helluva story.

This book gave us an open door I to Aaron’s previous life. Where he came from, what’s expected of him by his parents and let’s just say... the boy has it rough. He wants his own life and yet he has to battle his parents constantly for that. They’re parents, they want the best for him but they’re just missing the mark a little.

But when trouble comes to their door they’ll put the inner battles aside and join their son and his guild members to stop it in its tracks. It’s a battle that could go either way. Each person has to fight like they’ve never fought before in order to stay alive and protect the ones around them.

I can’t freaking wait for more!!

Great!

Another great installment in this already awesome series! Annette Marie is a wonderful story teller buy Chris Dukehart is amazing at giving the characters life.

One of my favorite stories in the series

This was such a great story. We got to know so much more about the characters and it made you care about them even more.

If you have not started this series, you need to and you need to start with book 1.

Author's recommend reading order listen......

A bit of a cliffhanger ending, but at least the next book is out so you can delve right into the next story.
Oh wait, I can't because the author suggests reading "Slaying Monsters for the Freebie" next... UGH

How long until the next book.

Love this series. I sure hope we don’t have to wait to long for the next book.
