Publisher's Summary:

Emerson Clarke thought magic might solve all her problems. Turns out, magic only made her life more complicated. Her sick mother is in a worse position than before, and Em just made a risky deal with an Unseelie prince: he will heal her mother if Em agrees to the ultimate alliance - marriage.

With the possibility of finally getting the one thing she's always wanted, Em enters the dangerous world of the Unseelie Court. She'll learn whatever she has to about magic and etiquette in order to fake her way through palace life until Prince Roarke fulfills his side of the bargain.

Holy freaking goblins butts!

Rachel has done it AGAIN! Shadow Fairie is unflippingbelievable! The magic, the emotion, it's an incredible journey with Em, Dash, and of course Bandit! Friendships, betrayal, hidden truths revealed! The realms are never going to be the same again.

Worth the wait!

Amazing! This book brings so many questions together, and of course leaves us enough cliff hangers for the final book. Rachel Morgan really knows how to create characters that you fall in love with. I love how the three trilogies come together as one, all while also being separate. The entire Creepy Hollow series are by far on top of my list.

Loved the story. Hate cliff hangers.

I try not to buy a series until it is finished. I messed up on this one. A great story and looking forward to reading the conclusion to Emerson's adventures in a couple of months.

Shadow Faerie

I love the Creepy Hollow books they drag you in and won't let you go. The only reason I gave this one a 4 star is because I was getting so frustrated by all of the stupid choices Emerson was making. I had to put this book down a lot because of that. Don't get me wrong it is a great book and we'll worth the read.

Loved it!

Loved it!!! Could not put it down. It is another great addition to the series. Can't wait fir the next book. I totally recommend it to all fantasy fans.

Interesting

What if the gods had kid's? Love quickly learn that Hades daughter us not quite what you think she should be. The king if he'll may have gotten a bad rap. Fall in love with these cast of characters but be careful one has a secret which can change everything.

Good Book

This was an interesting book and different from the others that I have read on the same subject. I enjoyed all of the action, it was very good. The only thing that I didn't like was the blood drinking, ugh.

Love it

Love the characters love scar I definitely want to hear what happens next so please hurry with the next book

Very poorly written.

Felt like it was written by a teenager. There was no depth to any of the characters. It was a jumbled of mess of just random things the author thought would be cool in a book.

Good read

It was a good read it kept me up for awhile

Members Reviews:

Great ending to this arc but I know the next adventure Abbey and the crew find will be just as good. After all the monsters are coming! I absolutely loved the cameoâs in this one. Inspired idea there Mr author! PT Hyltonâs ability to weave together a world and characters in incredible. The sense of justice and the faith that they will overcome all in the face of what would shut most of us down is awesome. I canât wait to join Abbey again as she crosses into unknown lands. (That will be soon right?)

This was my favorite of the four and I'll miss this particular cast ...

It brings a tear to finish this story arc. This was my favorite of the four and I'll miss this particular cast of friends. Abbey has grown so much since we met her in her father's shop and I look forward to her further adventures. PT Hylton puts a lot of heart in the midst of the action - loyalty, friendship and love are always looming large in the story line. I close with a quote that particularly touched me in regard to such matters of the heart. To avoid spoilers, I wont mention which character is speaking and to whom they are speaking. "If you care about ______, you run at that relationship with everything you have. Damn the consequences!... You've found each other, and that's all that matters. Everything else is just distraction."

Awesomeness stuffed in a small package!

Storm Warrior is an Amazing book! I've loved the whole TKG Universe. The Storms Of Magic series has believable characters in bad situations and some how maintain there humor. Give it a try!

Awesome

What a wonderful, exciting, adventurous story. As one door closes another opens and all of the strong women. It all stems from belief in one self.

More please more

Love these books. So much action and adventure. You never know what is around the next turn. Wait with baited breath for the next one!!

Publisher's Summary:

After the riotous civil war in Dark Sky, the crew of the Keiko decides to go on vacation at an illegal gambling port for a little fun. What they don't realise is that the casinos are run by an ex-client who didn't get his shipment due to the war.

The mob boss decides to take Tamara Rouke, the Keiko's second-in-command, and hold her hostage until the crew raises enough money to pay him back for the lost shipment. If they don't pay up in time, Rouke will be killed. Captain Ichabod Drift and his crew agree. But as they find a way to get the funds, one will betray everyone, and one will die....

Members Reviews:

Just keeps getting better.

This latest installment in the ongoing trials and tribulations of the Keiko and crew saga just keeps getting better and better. I rarely give a 5 star rating but this deserves it IMHO. Great character development and story telling here. Never a dull moment wrapped around interesting storylines. What can I say, Iâm loving the series!

I never go into the exact storylines so wonât here. Just to say that nothing is a what I thought it would be and thatâs part of the pleasure!

Loved it.

Genuine cliff-hangers with characters you know, but do you really?

Wow, this was good. Really good. The author took his established characters from the first two books, then skillfully wove multiple story lines with those characters and didn't hesitate to put them all at risk. There were genuine moments when I wasn't sure anyone would survive, and that requires courage on the author's part. Too many books try to take the reader to the precipice, but in the back of your mind you know that your beloved characters will survive. Not so in this book. Up until the end, Mike leaves you guessing.

We get a chance to learn more about the crew from the Keiko, and what we learn is sometimes surprising. Their development is very believable and I can genuinely relate to them.

Can't wait for the next installment!

Great bit of space opera in a series that has been a great read. I'm looking forward to more from Mr. Brooks.

This was a good read. Interesting plot design. While it will remind you of others there are some unique aspects and characters.

The trilogy is a good one. Characters you like and maybe dislike at the same time. There is no honor among thieves.

Well worth reading!

Fantastic read. Mike Brooks continues to impress with his work, and I look forward to keenly following the adventures of the Keiko crew further. Even better reading the second time around too...

Western fantasy

I enjoy the character of Jon shannow and the world in which he exists. All the belief and religious talk would typically annoy me, but it fits in the story and is done in such a way as to be unobtrusive. All-in-all it's a good second book in this series and I'm looking forward to completing the trilogy with book 3.

great story, great narrator.

great story with great narrator. accents were perfect for the world that was portrayed by the author. emotions were spot on and I enjoyed listening while I worked. thank you.

great book rubbished by narrators crappy accents.

struggled to finish due to narrators attempt to do every accent he could think of, from Scouser to African/Jamaicans, really bad Yorkshire man, Irish, Welsh a pantomime Foo man choo esque Chinese to a cheeky cockney!

What a tail.

FANTASTIC book, fantastically . . . . . . . . . . . .( that is all).

Publisher's Summary:

It is 300 years since the world toppled on its axis and civilisation was destroyed. In this savagely reshaped world ruled by brigands and war makers, a rider seeks a lost city.

Members Reviews:

Wow! Whew Whoa! and a little WTF?

Where to start on this one? Wolf in Shadow is a postapocalyptic heroic fantasy western with gunslingers, farmer folk, eskimos, magic stones, and a superhero driven by (among other things) religion, the love of a good woman, and a compulsion to find the City of Jerusalem. Enough different tropes there for you? Throw in Atlantis and a few others that shall remain surprises.

I am a huge fan of David Gemmells books. This one, written in 1987, is not typical. It is not 'historical fantasy' (Lion of Macedon, the Troy trilogy) or set in a medieval Earth-based fantasy world (the Drenai books and others). Its setting is a postapocalyptic, near-future Earth. The apocalypse was Earth tipping on its axis, with civilization (and most people) having been destroyed in massive floods as oceans and land masses switched places.

Why the people who are left should have become a society like that of the 18th century American West is never explained, other than by the fact that David Gemmell apparently grew up with an obsession for American western movies. Jon Shannow, the Jerusalem Man, arrives toting a gun and a Bible, in scenes vaguely reminiscent of the classic film 'Shane.' I cant even begin to describe the events that follow. They come fast and furious, with constant action and unexpected twists and turns.

This is the third book set in world where magic is generated by golden Sipstrassi stones of power. The first two, Ghost King and Last Sword of Power, are loosely (*very* loosely) based on Arthurian legend, so there is a major jump in time. I recommend reading the first two--which are more typical of Gemmells style--first, especially Last Sword of Power, for reasons I won't explain due to spoiler potential.

I found Jon Shannow and his sidekick Batik unique, fascinating, and fully developed characters. I really enjoyed the book, even though it pulled too many rabbits out of hats (or, if you prefer, deuses out of machinas). Its a breathless whirl of action that, in the final climactic battle, become a little Too Much--hence the WTF factor. The epilogue is highly satisfying, though, and the Shannow saga should have ended there, which Ive read was what Gemmell originally intended. However, he went on to write two sequels. I read The Last Guardian years ago and did not like it and never bothered with the final one, Bloodstone.

The narrator is Christian Rodska. I think he's a great narrator and here he does a terrific job with a wide range of characters.

Plague and devastation ravage the Mortal Realms, but there is hope yet, for Sigmar's Stormcast Eternals are paragons of justice and retribution.

In Ghyran and the lands of Rotwater Blight, Lord-Castellant Grymn fights on, not only to avenge the death of Lord-Celestant Gardus but also to find the Hidden Vale of Alarielle, the Radiant Queen and ruler of the sylvaneth. Only with her aid can the pestilence that ails the land be turned back.

Returning to the Hanging Valleys of Anvrok, Thostos Bladestorm is much changed, but he also carries a weighty truth...he has found Ghal Maraz, the great hammer of Sigmar itself. Reunited with Vandus Hammerhand, these two heroes and their warriors must conquer the Eldritch Fortress of Tzeentch and overthrow the dreaded Kairos Fateweaver if they are to retrieve this mighty artefact.

A traditional fantasy story with LitRPG elements.

Members Reviews:

Great Story

Great world building. Even better character development. I love the concepts regarding the gifts. The narrator threw me off at times when he would describe damage ranges as "Three minus Seven" instead of "Three to Seven". Regardless, I really enjoyed this book. Can't wait for the second on to come out in audiobook format.

Pretty good

went in with pretty low expectations, but was plesently surprised by the book, it has a good story and good action.

meh

This book seemed very short. It was mildly interesting LitRPG, but the story really didn't progress. Not worth the credit I paid for it.

A very enjoyable Litrpg dungeon dive book

This book was great I really enjoyed it. I've read a lot of 'transported to another worlds ' books lately so it was nice to read a story where the MC is a local to the world. This story is about the daily dungeon dives of Daniel as he struggles to be stronger. He has an innate ability that is very useful but the cost is so bad I'd consider it almost a curse.

My only complaint is the narrator, I thought he was monotone and boring but not bad enough to stop me from getting the next book.

I would recommend this book to anyone who likes Litrpg or dungeon diving.

I really enjoyed this book.

I will say this is now one of my favorites now. My only problem is that it is a bit short.
