Story
My name is Tamara Bentley, "Bent" to my friends, and I'm not supposed to exist. I was born of the forbidden union between a witch and a werewolf, and they've been trying their damnedest to hide my existence ever since. But now my secret is out, and my uncle, the leader of the wolf pack, is pissed beyond belief. In his eyes, I'm something that should've never been born. He wants me dead and doesn't care who he has to sacrifice to get the job done.

Story
Imagine going to bed with mousy brown locks and waking up with a headful of supernova scarlet. It's a hot new look for me - literally, because it bursts into flames whenever I'm threatened. My magical makeover is all Gary's fault. I knew there was something off from the moment he transferred to my school. Go figure. He's a wizard with a trust fund and an inferiority complex. Now, thanks to him, I've graduated from high school bullies to supernatural terrors and that's not all. Fate has chosen me to face the legendary vampire destined to destroy the world.

After dying and being reborn into a world that's built like a video game, Jim has found himself stuck in a very old-world style new-player zone for low-level adventurers. Unfortunately, the zone fell out of use centuries ago, and no one told the monsters they were supposed to take it easy on the Noobs. Even worse, the only new player around is Jim. Jim has been given an opportunity, and he'll do his best to take advantage of it.

When I arrived at my uncle's house, I expected my relatives to be like me - outcast sorcerers who don't practice magic. I was right about the sorcery, but wrong about everything else. Rule two: Don't listen to the demon. My uncle chose a far deadlier power. He calls creatures of darkness into our world, binds them into service contracts, and sells them to the highest bidder. And I'm supposed to act like I don't know how illegal and dangerous it is. Rule three: Don't talk to the demon. All I had to do was keep my nose out of it.

The Ruhar hit us on Columbus Day. There we were, innocently drifting along the cosmos on our little blue marble, like the Native Americans in 1492. Over the horizon came ships of a technologically advanced, aggressive culture, and BAM! There went the good old days, when humans got killed only by each other. So, Columbus Day. It fits. When the morning sky twinkled again, this time with Kristang starships jumping in to hammer the Ruhar, we thought we were saved.

Most witches don't work for police departments, but Michelle isn't your average witch. She's clanless, looking for a warlock who isn't offended by her lack of family connections, and in danger of losing her job if she can't find the eight escaped trolls before they start eating the local residents. Trolls, angry police, and misbehaving spells are the least of her problems. Statues attacking homeowners might be problematic for your average witch, but to Michelle it's another day at the office.

Summary
Half witch, half werewolf, all attitude.
My name's Tamara Bentley, and I should be happy to be heading home for the holidays. Too bad tensions between the supernatural forces surrounding my hometown are at an all-time high - witches and werewolves, ancient enemies who would happily slaughter each other. One side fears me, the other doesn't know I exist, and I aim to keep it that way, lest they both decide to find common ground in killing me.
Now an offer for peace has been extended, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the two warring races to settle their differences. So, of course, someone is looking to screw it all up. Not only do they want to put an end to the fragile peace before it can even begin, but they're looking to shift the balance of power by blowing open the gates that protect our world from the things that lay beyond.
After a surprise attack leaves both sides crippled, me and my friends are the only ones left who can stop to their plans. Sadly, we're outnumbered and outgunned. Even my unique heritage might not be enough to save my family, my friends, and everything I hold dear before Hell itself is unleashed upon the Earth.

Second volume in an fantastic series.
Rick Gualtieri has created another fantasy universe with the Hybrid of High Moon series. This second installment was very enjoyable, expanding on the first and giving us a deeper understanding of each of the factions.
The character development is fantastic, dialogue is witty and fun. The story draws the reader in and keeps us engaged.
I look forward to future books in this series.

I got bent, again, and I liked it!
I forgot just how much I enjoyed the first entry to this series. Bent Outta Shape was just as good, if not better than the original. Again, we find ourselves with Bent and her family/friends as they dive deeper into her hybrid Lycan/witch life and the drama/adventures it brings.
I love Rick's ability to develop a scene in the right amount of detail that allows me to visualize it. The various fights in this audiobook were made that much more enjoyable because of this fact.
As with the last entry, Rachel did a fantastic job with the narration. I've really got to look more into other books she has narrated.
Another easy 5/5 from Mr. Gualtieri.

Bent is frustrating at times!
A easy story to get caught up in so much that you're yelling at the main character for doing/not doing something. There was a good plot twist near the end too.
Sometimes it was difficult to tell who was talking between Bent and Cass when they were talking to each other.
I'm looking forward to more stories/adventures of Bent.

Not your typical Christmas story
I really liked the first book in this series and after listening to this one, I can't wait for the third one. Poor Bent is looking forward to a relaxing winter break from college but what does she expect when the 2 sides of her family have more animosity than the Hatfields and Mccoys?

Good story, narrator needs practice.
I like where Gualtieri is going with this series. The characters are interesting and there's plenty of room for further development. I'm disappointed in Dulude's reading though.
All too often in the narration
you can tell when she hits the end of
a line of text
and has an unnatural pause
in the flow.
It's pretty distracting for me but not so much that I'd stop listening to this series.
