About this listen

Life is quiet for Alex Verus. Amazing. With a flat full of friends (and the occasional fish) and business booming, why not enjoy the humdrum here and now?

But of course that's too good to be true. In a sudden and cruel pincer movement of fate, Alex finds himself fighting a sinister and powerful gang as well as his own demons - for the same crime.

Held hostage by the choices of his past, Alex's future is now in jeopardy....

This is the book where you find out far more about Alexs’ past, what he has run from, and who he once was. The other characters get far more involved at times too, which I like. In this story you also learn more about adepts who get left behind and what happens to some of them. All in all a book that tells a good story, full of challenges as well as history, fleshing out Verus’ world nicely.

A favourite in a great series

Well Mr Jacka, I am hooked on these books. Each story picks up where the last one ends. There are such scary battles, wonderful friendships, emotional behaviours and clever storylines. Lots of memorable places in London and the use of magic, plus common sense and great twists and turns. I just could not stop listening and this book in 2 days. The thought of having a large spider as a friend scares me as I am really afraid of spiders, so this add to the appeal. Downloading the next in the series tomorrow.

The is a formidable series!!
