Hailey Edwards is on my “must buy” list! I’ve listened to this series before but when I got the urge to listen to some of Hailey’s work this week, I started the series again.

I’d say this is a read in order kind of book, since each book builds on top of lore from the book or two books before it. It is also helpful if you read The Beginner’s Guide to Necromancy series, with Linus and Greer, first, though it’s not absolutely needed, but you may get some spoilers.

As usual, Ms Blake has written an amazing story, brought to life by Ryan West. Both the author and the narrator continue to tell a story that was partly started in the very first Masters and Mercenaries with the M-T team. The bad guy has changed, but has ties to that first one. With many more of the extended M-T next generation listed or involved in this book, hopefully that means we’ll keep getting more and more of this found family’s story for many more books!!

I listened to Fourth Wing and Iron Flame for the second or third time before I started Onyx Storm, just because I always forget things. I’d been waiting for this since Iron Flame came out, so I devoured this book. There are twists and turns and surprises around every corner!! The main two themes are 1 how to defeat the venin, 2 find Andarna’s family. The adventures and misadventures of this group of riders and flyers are edge of your seat exciting. The steamy parts could heat Alaska in winter. If you’re a fan of this series, this is an amazing addition to the party!! I would caution that there is a huge cliffhanger that was the single horrible thing about the book. Everything else was perfect for a romantasy book.

If you are new to this series, start at book one!! These are definitely not a series of stand alone books, you’d be sorely lost if you started here in the middle!! But I do recommend the whole series, I’ve been hooked since the first chapter of Fourth Wing!!

I’ve never had a bad opinion of Penny Reid’s work, and Banana Pants keeps that going strong! Plus, in true Penny fashion, she wove a story with so much meaning that you don’t realize that the stigma of a mental health condition has been torn down to the smallest parts, so that you see what someone with that condition may go through (some and may being very key words!!). This book was as amazing as any of Penny’s books and I’d say you’re Banana Pants if you don’t get it!!

The only complaint I have about the audiobook is that the gentleman did a Boston accent for Quinn but the lady did not. I’m usually not bothered by the differences in the woman’s voice being different from the man’s on any specific character, but the accent threw me for a loop. Still an amazing job though, once you get used to that!!

Storee and Cole were an amazing couple, but it was the side characters that kept me in the Grinchy mindset!! Max, Cindy, Martha and May!! I adore all Quinnmas things, but this was above and beyond! Currently I own 3 copies and plan to buy at least one more!! Meghan has kids that need Christmas gifts, I don’t feel guilty!

I don’t think I realized that this was a bit further from Raphael and Elena than I was used to. I have never been bothered by the books about Raphael’s seven finding their mates, but this was only barely connected to the usual cast of characters. Also, it started when Alexander was a youth, and considering he’s a super ancient, it took a while to catch up with the current time of the series.

That being said, I did enjoy this new couple. The book did give some much needed clues about the Queen of death I believe, letting us know a few hidden things. Plus, we get to see a good chunk of Raphael’s seven as juveniles, along with Raphael himself!!

If you’re a fan of the series and have gotten this far, I’d recommend reading or listening to this book, just to make sure you are caught up. If you’re new to the series, you really need to read the first one first, then you can read in whatever order, as long as you realize things will be really out of order with the ongoing battles.

How Illium and Aodan came to be friends is described in this book, as is what happened to Aodan when he was missing. Definitely worth reading to get this full back story on these best friends that have been through seemingly everything together.

Look, if you’ve read/listened to the other books in the Agitator books, this is a MUST!! I binged the whole book in a day and a morning, with a few breaks in between. It is super spicy, so funny and shows how much Posey cares about his teammates and their women! It’s a great listen, with all the narrators from the other books checking in as their characters! I’d maybe say it’s not the best to start the series on, but all you’ll know is the couples from the previous books worked it out and are happy, but you’ll still need to learn their trials and troubles. 1000% recommended!!

I love a good Mercy Thompson book, and this one is in that category. Mercy is still being affected by an artifact that has been destroyed, it left something in her it seems. Adam is fighting the effects of a curse from their former witch friend that turned to black magic. It’s a rough time for the Columbia Basin Pack. Then Mercy’s brother shows up with some kind of curse of his own. Mercy and Adam take off to his ranch to find out what happened. A Frost Giant claims Gary has stolen his harp/lyre. From there, Mercy and Adam must find this new artifact, which they only know has strings and is silver on the front. A nearby resort seems the most likely place to look, especially since there’s a huge snowstorm at the hands of the Frost Giant.

The plot from there goes through trying to find the artifact, checking all the people out at the resort the Frost Giant pointed them towards. But also, we get glimpses of the Tri-Cities and New Mexico where Adam has a “snafu” with a security job. These switches in POV, along with “Interludes” between all the chapters, make it a little more choppy, but somewhat understandable to get all the info. There was some info and characters that seemed unneeded in my opinion, but that’s a me issue.

Overall, this was a great addition to the Mercy Thompson series. Some new types of interactions with new types of creatures. I would not recommend trying to start the series with this book, it’s definitely a continuation that needs the prior knowledge of the previous books in the series. Plus it’s just an amazing series! If you’re already a fan, take the leap!!

As always, the voice actor did an absolute amazing job! I appreciate that the whole series has the same person doing the narrating!

Naasir is in my top three favorite characters in this series, so I was excited to see his book! I’ve read it before and loved it then, but the audio is even better! Ms. Singh has got the best narrators for her series!!
