About this listen

A stunning, addictive fantasy debut that combines intrigue, magic, betrayal, and romance in an original world with a historical WWI tone. In an original world reminiscent of Edwardian England in the shadow of a world war, cabals of noble families use their unique magical gifts to control the fates of nations, while one young man seeks only to live a life of his own.

Moving at a brilliant pace and pulsing with deadly intrigue and unforgettable characters, Witchmark grabs listeners and doesn't let go until the thrilling conclusion.

Magic marked Miles Singer for suffering the day he was born, doomed either to be a slave to his family's interest or to be committed to a witches' asylum. He went to war to escape his destiny and came home a different man, but he couldn't leave his past behind. The war between Aeland and Laneer leaves men changed, strangers to their friends and family. Even after faking his own death and reinventing himself as a doctor at a cash-strapped veteran's hospital, Miles can't hide what he truly is.

Really great story and excellent narration. Looking forward to the next book in the series.

Good narration though I found myself losing interest in the mystery aspect of the book. Though the playfulness between the protagonists was enjoyable.

Okay

i read this a few years ago and thought I'd give the audio a listen as it is in the plus membership, got sucked into the story and the narrator has a Brit accent which i love

lovely adaptation

I'd heard this was good and ended up not being what I expected. Very involved with mental health and ptsd and institutions but a very interesting story and I ended up really enjoying it

I didn't know this was the first book in a trilogy which usually would have annoyed me however, I really enjoyed this book and am going to continue the series. This story is self contained and you could just read it as a stand alone but the far reaching story is much longer and that has intrigued me. The characters are ok but it's written from the point of view of the main character so he is the only really fleshed out one. The romance is lovely but doesn't take over the plot so if that's your draw to this book you may be disappointed.

The narrator has a good voice but there's something lacking, I think he lacks heart when doing the relationship bits so it prevented me connecting as much with the characters. Still good but not 5 stars.

Interesting enjoyable story
