Publisher's summary

I was burned at the stake at 14....

I was drowned in a lake when I was 24....

At 27, I was stoned in a public square....

I have died a hundred times in a hundred different ways, usually at the hands of the humans I've tried to save. But when a pregnant young woman finds her way into my tattoo shop with a demon on her tail, things go from bad to worse. Being a centuries-old witch isn't going to help me - nothing will.

This time I might just die in a way that sticks...permanently.

loved the book but its way too short

I really liked the story, all things considered. the narrator took some getting used to, and I had to re-listen to a lot at the beginning because her intonations were very distracting, but I did get used to it. What irritates me is how short the book is- 4 1/2 hours? Most books I buy are 11-13 hours, it should not cost a whole credit. I feel like I am being majorly taken advantage of and I don't see how I could possibly afford to listen to more of her books.

good but new narrator please

The storyline was good and entertaining, but the narrator dropped her voice at the end of each sentence so it sounded like it was spoken by a the stereotypical dumb clueless beach blond.

The narrator is Max personified

I've read this book, well, the entire series a couple times, but listening to it is a whole new experience! The narrator brings Max to life exactly as I hear her in mind. Very well done! Simply amazing!

worst book ever

The narrating was awful. I won't read any more of this series when it sounds like a snarky teen reading run on sentences.

So SO Good!!

I have read and listened to this series several times and it's always as good as I remember!

The way Annie Anderson writes characters is amazing! They feel like real people you would meet out in the world. She doesn't just gloss over the character building, they are fully fleshed out characters. The stories she tells with these characters are always engaging. Again I've read and listened to this series several times and I'm STILL on the edge of my seat.

Throw in Cassandra Parker as narrator and this should already be a TV show. A movie wouldn't be enough! To be honest, 5 stars doesn't even feel like enough.

I strongly suggest picking up ANYTHING written by Annie Anderson and do it faster when you see Cassandra Parker is the narrator! 🙌🏻

I returned it 5 minutes into it

The voice? What is up with the voice?!
I returned the audiobook. I’ll get the kindle version.

Yyyaaaasssssss

This book is amazing. I love the main characters and the narration is spot on. Max is a sassy take no shit gal that loves her people. I can 100% relate to that.

Interesting story, horrible narration

It took a few attempts to get through this due to the narration. The story is at times witty, at times gruesome and an intriguing, if a little slight, supernatural fantasy. The narration is DIRE, I’ve never had to slow a book down before but this narrator reads at a breathless pace with no pauses. Just to get coherent sentences I had to slow it down. The voice of the heroine is fine if kind of nasal and whiny, the other character voices are dire and hard to distinguish, the accent work is even worse. Think I’ll have to read the next book if I want to know more, couldn’t take that narration for even another hour!

Total drivel don’t waste a credit

Didn’t even make end of chapter 2
Should have paid attention to another review where they mentioned the truly horrible narration, if the story weren’t so dull I might have stuck it out but the reader has a dreadful drawl and she speaks with a nasally twang which grates on one’s ears!!!!

narration terrible but I enjoyed the story

Really bad narration of this book, as previously said, read at speed with no breaths or pauses, tried to slow it down but that didn’t work as speech went weird, terrible nasal voice of the woman, and how does a uk accent sound like an Aussie accent. I enjoyed the story and would really like to try the next book if I can cope with Cassandra Parker’s awful narration. Do the authors or publishers/audible check on the quality of narration as this one definitely slipped through the net and ruined an otherwise decent book

Enjoyable but....

I liked the overall premise of the story & the character of Max, but there were some inconsistencies that kept taking me out of the story & found it confusing. I even went back to certain parts to re-listen to try & understand. Story was too short, not sure if will continue with book 2 for fear of the same inconsistencies.....
The narrator was ok but can not do an Irish or Australian accent to save her life.

Fun and easy to listen to

Good, easy read. Great supernatural story and fun characters. Looking forward to the next one.

Personally speaking, I would have preferred the narrator not attempt Australian or British accents - they’re difficult if you’re not good at accents (same as when we try USA accents so not her fault). Just made the experience a little grating, but otherwise I enjoyed it a lot.
