The narrations follow that guide, with Alister reading the chapters that are in Killian's point of view, and Natalie gets the rest.). Most of the first book, Magic Forged, comes from Hazel's point of view, so Natalie carries almost all of the narration this time around (if you're familiar with the story, you'll remember the character headers at the top of each chapter. how about throwing in a PERFECT narration as well? Both Natalie Duke and Alister Austin are a pleasure to listen to, and they made a wonderful story even better.

It has it all: memorable characters, fast pacing, original storyline, outstanding banter, and KM Shea's trademark humor. This series is FUN - honestly, one of KM Shea's best. It takes place in the Magiford Supernatural City universe and features vampires, wizards, fae, and werewolves! This trilogy is packed with humor, adventure, and a sweet, slow burn romance between a vertically challenged wizard and the most lethal vampire in town. Magic Forged is the first book in the completed Hall of Blood and Mercy trilogy. I'm not sure what happens when a scrappy wizard is taught how to fight by a hall of deadly vampires, but I'm about to find out. And if I can convince him to train me, I might get strong enough to free my family and get my house back. And he's definitely using me as his personal magic detector in his feud against the local fae.īut Killian is also the first person to believe I might have more than just a scrap of magic. He's also so powerful that my flight or fight instincts kick in every time our eyes meet.

Is Killian sexy and charismatic? Heck yeah. I barely manage to flee, but the only supernatural willing to help me is Killian Drake - the most feared vampire in the region, and a far more deadly villain than the jerk threatening my family. The situation veers from bad to catastrophic when my backstabbing cousin stages a coup and takes my family hostage. But when my parents die in an accident, and I find myself responsible for our whole wizard house and family, I know my usual tactics aren't going to cut it. As someone with barely a flicker of magic, I've spent my life being mocked and surviving fights with bullies.
