Royals of Villain Academy Book 2

I enjoyed the first book, Cruel Magic, but this book is even better. Rory’s fellow scions continue to be a problem, although the line between hate and love seem to be blurring for a few of them. Rory continues to uphold her values and principles and it is not popular with the Fearmancers.

Narration is excellent and brings the story to life.

This is an adult series and there are some steamy scenes. The author did a great job creating an interesting world with well developed characters. I’m still not too fond of any of the Scions but hopefully they will develop some redeeming qualities.

The story sucked me in and it was impossible to put it down! I finished the book in record time and can’t hardly wait for book 3! This series is very entertaining and I’m looking forward to finding out what will happen next.

Loving this world so much already ❤️

I thought book 2 was a great follow-up to book 1, had me more invested in these characters and want to shake them all with their decisions and can't wait for them to be a unit instead of all the pushing and pulling and being on opposite sides. I loved seeing some walls come down, I loved the angst and heartbreak between some, and am ready for Malcolm to get the stick out of his butt and realize what he wants to happen shouldn't happen and he needs to listen to his fellow scions. I enjoyed seeing Connar finally do something admirable and am excited to see what happens with him and Rory in the next book. I hope Jude can snap out of it, I mean he is trying to understand, but its not clicking yet. and I am worried about what might happen to Declan. The ramifications will probably bite them later. I was heartbroken but knew it was gonna happen eventually with one character and sad that Rory keeps losing friends left and right. I loved getting more insight into the powers and how they can be used against each other/see how to combat some of them. I loved the little Hogwarts-esque team/league challenge. I also thought the moments with Rory and Shadow was adorable. Overall 5/5 for the story in book 2 of 8 of this series ❤️

In terms of narration I thought there was improvement, between and 4 and 4.5 stars for me. I thought the emotion that Meg provided was gut wrenching, especially with the event at the end of the book. I think the portrayal of Debra is helping make me suspicious of her and her narration of the mean girls was amazing. I felt the sorrow with Imogen and the feeb I am blanking on (totally not playing into the Villains storyline/relationship I promise haha). Great job, Meg! Stephen did a good job, I thought he was better at not being screechy/whiny with Rory's narration. He definitely did a great job with Malcolm and Connar's scenes. I am interested to get a POV from Jude after the blow-up with Rory, feel how lost he is.

Already downloaded book 3, losing this story so much already! I am glad this series is complete because I would be devastated to not know what would come next 😍

ger ready for a wild card

is this book throw you for loops turns and twist that are not expected has Rory comes into her powers you get to see a whole new passion in her especially if she figures out the different powers that she has

So Darn Good!

i have read this book when it first came out! And i thought it was fantastic! I had to get my hands on the Audio when i found out when it was coming out and it did not disappoint. I loved this story from beginning to send and i loved this narrator. She made the story come to life and i couldn't get enough. I am looking forward to listening to more of this author and narrator in the future! If you love PNR this is an awesome series to listen and read!

Gets Better

Gets better and better! Seems like everyone is falling for her. Wondering how this will pan out. Meg Sylvan and Stephen Dexter did an amazing job at narrating

I love this series !!!!!!!!!!

In book 2 Rory has just learned that she is one of the most powerful mages in the world. Now she has to learn how to use those powers. The Scions still give her trouble along with the "mean girls" but my girl Rory is keeping up.
Her relationships with Jude and Declan start to heat up in the book. Connor has a lot to make up for and Malcom is still a jerk to her. I love her relationship with Shelby and I can't wait to see what will happen next.
There are several plots in this book. The overall plot is Rory trying to reconcile her Fearmancer abilities with her Joymancer nature. They we have the mystery of what is happening with her mentor. Also the constant conflict with the Barrons and now her grandparents. Rory has a very busy and complicated life.
Stephen and Meg do an amazing job of narrating and bringing the characters to life. I can't wait for more!!! #AudioBx review

Game on!

What a great fantasy of sorcery and back stabbing! This is your series! Narrators are great!

so so good

i could not stop listening to this book, it keeps you wanting to know what is going to happen next, the characters are so well put togther

Awesome Job!!!

Vile Sorcery by Eva Chase and narrated by Meg Sylvan and Stephan Dexter, the second book in a multiple book series.
Return Rory Bloodstone, She made it through the trial to prove her magic, now she just needs to survive her classmates. I love how she tries so hard to maintain her morals while she is being told that everything she grew up learning is wrong, but she is surviving with help from her mentor, her mouse, and her access to the library.
I highly recommend this book but you really need to listen to them in the order that the author intended, or you will be completely lost. Follow Rory and her adventures, and the other scions to see what happens next.
