Shiloh Grey narrates a politically minded paranormal romance. Elijah Richter and Meghna Saxena-Saunders have plans to take down the same international arms dealer, but their approaches differ. After a messy accident, they reassess and combine forces. Though Elijah and Meghna are both intensely driven and focused, Grey teases out the nuances of their differences and highlights their strengths: Meghna is independent and unflappable, while Elijah sees his team as an extension of his family and emotions as nothing to hide. Numerous secondary characters round out the story, and Grey's handling of the large and diverse cast shows real skill. Grey delivers a smart and adept performance of a story of geopolitics that is by turns steamy and humorous.

Petkoff’s strong performance brings to life all the creatures of this fantastical world.
The mythical realm of Skein is inhabited by vampires, werewolves, witches, demons, and Berserkers. Narrator Robert Petkoff is masterful navigating the wide range of characters, giving each a distinctive voice. He lends the werewolves a Scottish lilt, and his tone drips with evil as a particular vampire. The Accession, an ancient cycle of battle, is about to begin. As all the factions come together, connections are made: A vampire princess escaping her sadistic brother ends up wed to a Berserker. A werewolf finds his mate in a demon witch. A vampiress and an incubus form a partnership.

Expressive narration and spot-on comedic timing make this audiobook a delight.
Narrator Alex Finke perfectly delivers the blend of sarcasm and dark humor in this tale of alternate worlds and fictional nightmares. With a slip of the tongue, Roxie Mitchell unintentionally wishesto become the heroine of her favorite romance author's next book—unaware that it’s a crime novel. As Roxie finds herself escaping a murderer, stealing a car, and ending up in London to catch a serial killer, the hardest part is trying not to fall in love with the character of her dreams. Finke’s enthusiasm is infectious as she voices the cast of characters caught up in the adventure.
