About this listen

Let's get one thing straight - Ivy Wilde is not a heroine. In fact she's probably the last witch in the world you'd call if you needed a magical helping hand, regardless of her actual abilities. If it were down to Ivy, she'd spend all day every day on her sofa, where she could watch TV, munch junk food, and talk to her feline familiar to her heart's content.

However, when a bureaucratic disaster ends up with Ivy as the victim of a case of mistaken identity, she's yanked very unwillingly into Arcane Branch, the investigative department of the Hallowed Order of Magical Enlightenment. Her problems are quadrupled when a valuable object is stolen right from under the Order's noses.

It doesn't exactly help that she's been magically bound to Adeptus Exemptus Raphael Winter. He might have piercing sapphire eyes and a body a cover model would be proud of, but as far as Ivy's concerned, he's a walking advertisement for the joyless perils of too much witch work.

And if he makes her go to the gym again, she's definitely going to turn him into a frog.

curious, but enjoyable

can't understand why a book that clearly is set in Britain is narrated by American. enjoyable, but the UK slang was distracting in an American accent.

Good story, confusing narration

It was quite confusing that a British woman was narrated in an American accent. It took me a while to get used to that. The story was good though and I will continue to listen to the series.

Great story, funny characters.

Finished the book in one day, couldn't wait for the mystery to be solved. Loved all the characters. The narrator wasn't so bad as other have said. I thought she did a good job on the female character's attitudes. Downloading the 2nd book. Hope the 3rd will be out soon.

Ivy is incredible!

Ivy was expelled from the order for something she did do. She enjoys driving a taxi as little as she could to support her lifestyle, which is insolence magnified. By a mistake she is bound for over a year to the most arrogant almost OCD yet skilled witch. Their interactions make the book! It is humorous to watch them as they are confronted with multiple murders and thefts. The narrator, Tanya Eby, does a great job with Helen Harper's story!
