Publisher's summary

My name is Kaidance Monroe, and I'm cursed with the gift of sight. I see death. Bloody, violent death. Before it even happens.

I was taken in by a mysterious benefactor, who wants to use my abilities to vanquish his oldest enemy. But the dark secrets in my new home drove me away. I don't know where I belong any more - with the fallen angel who has become my protector or with the immortal deities that are determined for me to join their cause.

All I know is I'm being hunted by an army of Zeus's soldiers, tracked by monstrous beasts that want to eat me alive, and running from the one person I want to be with.

But when I find the Golden Shears and claim the power to vanquish gods, everything will change.

An intense YA supernatural adventure

The Golden Sheers takes off right where the Scarlet Thread left off. This is an intense YA adventure with supernatural and mythological beings. The characters and the love triangle continues to develop. The cliffhanger ending is painful because I don’t yet have the next book.

Contains language and violence. Recommended for teens and older.

The narrator is well suited for the audiobook and does a good job.

I received a complimentary copy of this audiobook. This is my honest and voluntary review.

The war continues and so does the search

Another great story told be a great narrator. Book 2 picks up right where 1 left off and keeps the story rolling as the gods both try to help and stop Kaidance and her friends from trying to get the shears and stop the gods from fighting. Can't wait to listen to the next book

Great Series 💜

This is book 2 in this series. I’m loving this series. I love the paranormal world with all its magic and mystery and this book has it all.
The narration is absolutely amazing. She really brings each unique character to life!
This book has a cliffhanger and continues to book 3.
I recommend this book/series.

Better than the first book

Well I enjoyed this one a lot more than the first book so I am glad I gave this second one a chance. Although the end made me want to scream with that cliffhanger. I now have to listen to the third one to find out how it ends. Kaidence is on the run now and desperately trying to save her friend. This one had more tension to me and made me care more about the characters. I was anxious for them and hoping they would succeed and save her friend from Zeus. Who will Kaidence trust and who will she choose in the end? Hard for her to know who she can trust in this world.

Gothic and Mystical Second Installment

Derek Murphy did great on this second book of the Fated Destruction Series. And once again Austenne Grey did an amazing job narrating and bring Kaidance's story back to life. We pick up right where we left off in book one and it is full of action and of course the Greek Gods and Fates . Kaidance will learn to trust her instincts. She will also have a bit of a love triangle to deal with. I won't say anymore as to not ruin this story for anyone. Yet I will say I can't wait to see what the third installment has in store for Kaidance.

Storyline picking up speed

Things are moving along at a must faster clip in this book, starting right from the first chapter. There are some interesting (and even unexpected) twists and turns and exciting action, all leading to a hell of a cliffhanger. Very curious now to see where this story goes from here.

I received this audiobook free in exchange for my fair and honest review.

Loved it

Picks up right where book one left off, gets better and better as I follow this story. I can't tell who the "bad" guy is and its driving me mad lol. The love triangle going on is also throwing me for a loop! But I love it all!

Great YA fantasy book!

I really enjoyed the second book in this series. This book starts off where the first book left off and it is full of nonstop action!! Kaidence, the main character is learning her way and she just has to trust her instincts. There is a bit of a love triangle, and the ending!! OMGEEE, talk about a cliffhanger!!
It was a great audiobook and I felt like the narrator does a fabulous job breathing life into the story and characters.
