Summary
Alex Verus faces his dark side in this return to the best-selling urban fantasy series about a London-based mage.
To protect his friends, Mage Alex Verus has had to change - and embrace his dark side. But the life mage Anne has changed too and made a bond with a dangerous power. She's going after everyone she's got a grudge against - and it's a long list.
In the meantime, Alex has to deal with his arch-enemy, Levistus. The Council's death squads are hunting Alex as well as Anne, and the only way for Alex to stop them is to end his long war with Levistus and the Council, by whatever means necessary. It will take everything Alex has to stay a step ahead of the Council and stop Anne from letting the world burn.

The narrator forgets his voices
I love the narrator crisp and clear and have enjoyed the different character voices over the years of listening to the books. But in the last few he has forgotten and changed the characters voices, ie Levistus, he used to have a sickly smooth voice and this has distinctly changed in this book, same for Morden. It sounds picky but makes a difference.

Alex Verus series
I am a listener/reader of a lot of supernatural series. I have really grown into this series and this book has developed the main character considerably. I really enjoyed the book and it certainly left me ready for the next one but I can’t help feeling it could of been a few chapters longer moving us towards the challenges to come.
Still a good instalment into the series though and you can see the very core changes to the lead characters mindset.

It. Doesn't. Stop. Goes at a gallop all the way
Another fun installment. The choices you make eh? Great to dip back into Alex's world and see what misfortune he tries to sidestep, or not, again.

Fantastic
I really though the author had painted himself into a corner in this series but this book blows the narrative wide open again! Alex finds direction and the book starts to truly wrestle with the realities of the council's authority.

Amazing
Twists and turns. Always enjoyable. Going dark. Will they survive. Complicated if you weren't reading from book one.

Getting frantic
Be honest, Alex isn’t really the sort of chap you want round for afternoon tea anymore is he. Must be the quickest I’ve listened to a story as it whipped from one bloodbath to another. Thought it was all going to end with this one but there still seems to be a few hearts pumping out there to be abruptly stopped!

A new Alex Verus is forged in elsewhere
To really appreciate this book, I had to reread the last one. It ties up lots of lose ends from the entire sequence. In it Alex undergoes a transformation physical, magical and psychological. Many of the protagonists from earlier books meet their comeuppance, and the scene is set for final confrontations in the next volume.
I would recommend it
