Publisher's Summary:

In his very long life, Adam had encountered only one person who seemed to share his longevity: the mysterious red-haired woman. She appeared throughout history, usually from a distance, nearly always vanishing before he could speak to her.

In his last encounter, she actually did vanish - into thin air, right in front of him. The question was how did she do it? To answer, Adam will have to complete a quest he gave up on 1,000 years earlier, for an object that may no longer exist.

If he can find it, he might be able to do what the red-haired woman did, and if he can do that, maybe he can find her again and ask her who she is...and why she seems to hate him.

But Adam isn't the only one who wants the red-haired woman. There are other forces at work, and after a warning from one of the few men he trusts, Adam realizes how much danger everyone is in. To save his friends and finish his quest he may be forced to bankrupt himself, call in every favor he can, and ultimately trade the one thing he'd never been able to give up before: his life.

From the author of Immortal and Hellenic Immortal comes Immortal at the Edge of the World, the breathtaking conclusion to the best-selling trilogy. Will Adam survive?

Members Reviews:

Better than book 2

Entertaining, good story. Good mix ofhistory and present, fitting both well into the story. Deadly humour. Better than book 2.

Great listen .

Gene Doucette is my favorite new writer. Steve Carlson makes the story come alive .

awesome series

what a great ending to an equally original and awesome series. they narrating is perfect.

great book

very good read, all the books follow each other so well. i recommend getting them all.

I Hated That It's Over!

Who was your favorite character and why?

Adam. I just enjoyed his casual manner.

Have you listened to any of Steve Carlsons other performances before? How does this one compare?

The first book that I listed to by Steve was The Spaceship Next Door and while I enjoyed that book very much I thought his performance was mediocre. However, after listening to the three Immortal series I came away with a much better impression of Steve and his performance. It changed my opinion if his narration for the better. I think he did a great job on this series.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

A very casual listen / read with humor. The stories were light but the characters were fantastic. My only extreme reaction was finding out that the fourth book of the series was not available on Audible.

Any additional comments?

Audible - get the fourth book - NOW.

Unwilling to simply steal that time from the living, Jenna earns every day she leeches with volunteer work at a suicide prevention hotline.

Critic Reviews:

"Emily Bauer's narration of this contemporary ghost story is a poignant, pitch-perfect success...[her] remarkable ability to shift between various Southern accents and intonations infuses the dialogue with emotional depth and insight." (

AudioFile Magazine)

A Story of Ghosts & Witches from a New Perspective

Love love love!! A story of ghosts and witches with a new and unique perspective that was both fascinating and compelling. The narration was perfection - I was lost in the story from start to finish. My only complaint is that it was too short - I wanted MORE! I hope she revisits this from one of the other ghost's POV! This will be the first book of 2017 to make it to my "Favorites" list!

Sadly, not a favorite

Love this author however this one was underdeveloped and sophomoric. Characters not defined. Story was not up to the usual Awesomeness.

Great concept, forgettable plot and characters

Ive felt Seanan McGuire is a little hit or miss and this one was a miss for me. Amazing structure and a new twist on ghosts but just didnt care about the characters at all

Awesome narration!

Emily Bauer was absolutely perfect for this book. In fact, I think that was the best narration I've heard period since starting to listen to audio books. Her character voices were easy to distinguish, and she really set a great tone for the story.

It was my first book by Seanan McGuire but it certainly won't be my last!

Ghosts like you've never seen them before

What does Emily Bauer bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book?

Emily Bauer is a great narrator. I love her work on the InCryptid series too!

Any additional comments?

Those of you who are familiar with my reviews know that I do not often like to give away the storyline so that the plot summary you read with the book can be enough to draw you in and my review can be the push you may need to actually read the book. But I'm going to have to stray from that for this review.

Big warning: This book has the capacity to break your heart but it does mend it back together.

We start the story off learning that a young girl's world has shattered because her sister is dead and she suffers basically a nervous breakdown. You kind of enter this part of the story in the middle and kind of have to wait about 10 minutes to really get your footing.

By time I got my footing I realized the story is about the day-to-day "life" of a human ghost. She works at a suicide prevention hotline and does what she can to give back to the living.

I found out how ghosts can 'earn' the chance to move on to their own afterlife.

Publisher's Summary:

Landon Hamilton is no stranger to adversity. As the Diuscrucis, Purgatory's champion in the war between Heaven and Hell, he's had to deal with his unfair share: The vampire who betrayed him, the beast who imprisoned him, the angel who tried to kill him, and the powerful demon who almost did. As the war between good and evil continues to escalate, it is up to Landon and his remaining allies to put an end to the threat. But when your greatest adversary is also one of the people you love the most, can there be a happy ending?

Members Reviews:

AWESOME!!!

I'm sad to see the journey of Landon end but the ride was indeed an awesome one. Probably one of my favorite characters in a series Found myself emotionally invested in the character and his burden to maintain balance..This book was truly a bitter sweet one...Thank you M.R. Forbes for the moments you helped me escape every day life through Landon..Looking forward to the next series!!!!!

Unexpected

Thats the best word for this ending. It was perfectly fitting yet not something I saw comming at all.

My only issue is that I couldn't remeber everything that had happened in past books. So as everything came togehter there was some holes in my memory. Forbes did a great job of not making it feel like I had to perfectly remember though. Plus Hays voices tend to stir up memories as soon as the characters make an appearance.

Overall I'm happy to have been introduced to this series. Forbes certainly has a fan for anything he releases and I've already listened to most of what Hays records. They are a fantastic match.

An awesome end to an epic series.

From the beginning of the series to the end, I have enjoyed every single minute of this story. It truly is a shame it's ended, but all good things come to an end.

Fun read, but ending leaves too many loose threads

While I liked the book and Jeff Hays did a wonderful job performing the different characters, I felt the ending left somewhat to be desired. Honestly if he was ending it like this I felt the fourth book in the last arc would have been a better stopping point. He gains power to fight the girl from the last book and then gives the power he's gained up again. Then the hot woman Alex the great were, turns from devoted love slave to pretty much becoming a pacifist and abandoning the fight with him after a couple days away. And I don't think the author ever explained how she was able to remember him even though all the divine and humans are all supposed to forget him after five minutes in this new physical body. Then it turns out that supposedly even though his job is to keep the balance between good and evil that his presence is upsetting that balance.

Basicly this book makes the previous six seem pointless.

Great way to end the series

A great conclusion to the divine series. Another great adventure and I was happy if not surprised with the ending.

Title: In Shining Armor

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 403 votes

Publisher's Summary:

When someone kidnaps the last surviving descendant of the Grandmaster of the Knights Templar, it's bad news. When the baby is the key to the tenuous alliance between a large werewolf pack and the knights, it's even worse news. They're at each other's throats before they've even begun to look for baby Constance.

But whoever kidnapped Constance didn't count on one thing: She's also the goddaughter of John Charming, modern-day descendant of a long line of famous dragon slayers, witch finders, and wrong righters. John may not have any experience being a parent, but someone is about to find out that he can be one mean mother.

Critic Reviews:

"Fans of the works of Jim Butcher and Kevin Herne should find this an appealing addition to their bookshelves." (Library Journal)

Members Reviews:

Another great listen

Any additional comments?

I'm a big fan of Elliot James' writing. The snappy dialog, supernatural characters and high octane fighting of his stories is very entertaining. So far not one of the novels or short stories has disappointed. The characters are not stereotypical or stagnant like in some series. They grow, learn and you get to find out some back story too. Just enough to be intrigued.

In Shining Armor continues where the previous novel left off and to say this latest adventure is fast paced is an understatement. Turbo charged is more like it.

As to the narration, it's hard to pinpoint what makes one narrator more enjoyable to listen to than another, but IMHO, Roger Wayne is a perfect fit for John Charming's dry wit and sarcasm. His timing is superb, adding zing to a comment, that more than once had me laughing out loud.

ISA (as with the others in the series) is a keeper for me, to be relistened to with pleasure again and again. And I dearly hope that some time soon Elliot James' short stories (narrated by Roger Wayne) will become available too.

Enjoy!

Great series

Any additional comments?

Great 4th book in the Pax Arcana series. Narrator does a great job with a growing cast. The author has a developing cast with good chemistry and plenty of humor. Elliot James is fantastic at mixing in humor without mucking up the storyline. A must listen for anyone who likes this series!

Four and three quarter stars

This one wasn't as good as the other books but it was still very entertaining. I look forward to the next book.

Best narrator, ever. Story ain't bad either :)

The narration is superb, with such a natural yet lively style. The book is great too, with just the right flow to keep me in the story, and looking forward to more. Excellent combination!

Publisher's Summary:

In the city of Solantha, mages rule absolute, with shifters considered second-class citizens and humans something in between. No one outside the mage families are allowed to have magic, and anyone born with it must agree to have it stripped from them to avoid execution.

Sunaya Baine, a shifter-mage hybrid, has managed to keep her unruly magic under wraps for the last 24 years. But while chasing down a shifter-hunting serial killer, she loses control of her magic in front of witnesses, drawing the attention of the dangerous and enigmatic Chief Mage.

Locked up in the Chief Mage's castle and reduced to little more than a lab rat, Sunaya resists his attempts to analyze and control her at every turn. But she soon realizes that to regain her freedom and catch the killer, she must overcome her hatred of mages and win the most powerful mage in the city to her side.

Members Reviews:

Okay

I got a little tired of the Heroine's attitude. It became tiring to the point of being unrealistic. The ending was vaguely unsatisfying. The story almost reached its climax when suddenly they're at dinner talking about it in the past tense and the reader/listener is left to assume what happened.

Great start to a new series.

First things first, I have to say that the cover of this is very eye catching! Then we have a plot that sounded kick ass and put them together..... you get a great start to what is sure to be a brilliant series.

Plot wise, this was pretty much non stop the whole way through. Someone is poisoning shifters and when someone very close to our MC, Sunaya, gets poisoned, she knows she has to get to the bottom of it. But things don't go according to plan and Sunaya does something that gets her thrown in jail and brought to the notice of the Chief Mage, Iannis. He isn't someone to trifle with and her freedom, and life, are put into his hands. She needs to get him onto her side in order to survive and to solve the shifter killings. I really enjoyed the meshing of shifter and magic in this book. The author has created a captivating world and one I want to explore more of.

Sunaya is a half shifter half mage, which I really liked. She kind of has the best of both worlds!! She was snarky, strong, brave and willing to do what she can to solve the murders that no-one else seems to care about. She also drives a bad ass bike!! ;) All the characters in these were extremely likable and easy to root for and I can't wait to see more of them in future books.

In all, this was an action packed, well written and enjoyable read. I will definitely pick up book 2 to see what happens.

Laurel Schroeder was really good with Sunaya. She got her attitude and snarkiness perfectly, but I found her to not have enough different tones for other characters. Sometimes I got a little lost trying to follow who was talking. Other than that, she was a solid 4 stars and read the book well.

*I received this from the author. This in no way affected or influenced my thoughts.*

Not your typical hero in not your typical world

*** I received an Audible version of the book from the author for an honest review ***

Given this was an audio version of the book the first thing I notice is the reader's voice. At first she sounded like she was going for an Irish brogue or English accent for Sunaya Baine, the central character, then accent settled into an generic American accent.

Publisher's Summary:

Julien Lacusta is a troubled soul, born into tragic circumstances, and raised in a violent time. Despite being a Master Warrior in the house of Jadon, and one of the most elite trackers the Vampyr have ever seen, he is damaged to the core: tormented by endless shadows, haunted by unseen ghosts. And he knows - by all the celestial gods he knows - that if he ever releases those demons, the beasts that lurk within, there will be hell, fire, and brimstone to pay.

The very earth will suffer.

Rebecca Johnston is fighting hellhounds of her own: a stalker who won't let her go, an enemy she cannot defeat, and a life that is no longer safe. Or free. When she ventures into Dark Moon Vale to raise funds for a worthy cause, she has no idea that she is knocking on the door of fate. She has no idea that an ancient Blood Moon and an inescapable dark Curse are about to change her life.

Caught in a web of ever-increasing danger, the machinations of an ancient foe, and a burgeoning house of lies, Julien and Rebecca must summon their courage, face their fears head-on, and fight their way through the chemical allure of Blood Ecstasy.

Members Reviews:

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!

Blood Ecstasy was amazing! Julien's backstory was equal parts compelling and haunting. Rebecca's story-line was hard hitting and very well done. Action. Suspense. Darkness. Light. Evolution. Love. And every emotion imaginable. Just what I've come to expect of a Tessa Dawn novel. Excellent narration by Eric as always. I loved it!!

Sometimes the biggest battle is on the inside

Would you consider the audio edition of Blood Ecstasy to be better than the print version?

Yes and no. I personally love reading a story. It sinks in a little better. But, I love hearing the characters come to life. Plus, Eric singing... That's not available by reading!

What did you like best about this story?

I liked that the main characters both had realistic demons that they had to fight before they could be together. That love could find a way even after a wicked past that neither deserved.

What does Eric G. Dove bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book?

Singing! Wowsers. But really, he is an incredible narrator. He brings the characters to life. The feminine voice in my head while reading has been replaced by a smooth, masculine voice.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Tragedy. Redemption. Reborn.

Any additional comments?

If you loved this story, check out the rest of the Blood Curse Series. They are all fantastic stories.

I am in Ecstasy over Blood Ecstasy !

Tessa Dawn you have done it Again !!!!

The book was worth the wait! I love the way you keep all of the characters involved in the drama even when they are not the central characters of the story. I especially love the way you make a way to emotionally heal Julien and then Braden, good job and perfect example of it taking a village to raise a child.no matter the species or age. Well done !

Love, mayhem and tear jerking .and honorgod I love the honor. May be we should send some of your books to a few politicians, they could learn a few lessons from Napoleon.

Tessa your prequel cliffhangers are killing meand this time you only reveal the next destiny but with a twist, and no indication of the warrior ! To quote Nachari Silivasi to Saber Alexiares. Dudeyou are so incredibly jacked up.
