About this listen
Jessica's had the nightmares for as long as she can remember. Nightmares of being judged for people who have died, of being branded by the angels. Her friends and family think she's crazy because of it all. Yet she carries the mark of the condemned, seared into the back of her neck, and hides it and herself away from the world.
But when two men she can't ignore enter her life, everything changes, including the nightmares. The two of them couldn't be more different. She will do anything to be with one of them. Even tell him the truth about angels, why she never sleeps, and the scar on the back of her neck. But one of the two has set events into motion that will pull her toward her own judgment and turn her into the object of her greatest fear.

The authorities offer Tally a choice: find her friend and turn her in, or never turn pretty at all. Tally’s choice will change her world forever.

Story
My whole world changed when I stepped inside the academy. Nothing is right about this place or the other students in it. Here I am, a mere mortal among gods...or monsters. I still can't decide which of these warring factions I belong to, if I belong at all. I only know the one thing that unites them is their hatred of me. Then there's Jaxon Vega. A vampire with deadly secrets who hasn't felt anything for a hundred years. But there's something about him that calls to me, something broken in him that somehow fits with what's broken in me. Which could spell death for us all.

There’s only one rule in the world I come from. Keep our existence a secret. Period. The day my sister broke that rule one too many times, I knew there would be consequences. I expected us to be sent to one of those schools for “troubled” kids - and maybe Daizlei Academy was, in a way. But really, it was far more complicated than that. You see, I thought that world had forgotten me. Forgotten us. For years we were left alone, and one day...we weren’t. It was only when I got there that I remembered the second rule: Trust no one.

I am a latent wolf shifter. Or so I thought. Then, life as I knew it changed in a flash - or more accurately, an electrocution. I’ve woken up in a strange place, surrounded by strange people who hate me. They’re in the middle of a war, and I look like I belong on the wrong side of it. If that’s not enough to qualify as a really bad day, I now have wings and a strange animal to figure out because it turns out that there’s not a damn latent thing about me.

Knowledge is power. That would be the motto of Lander University, had it not been snatched up and used to death by others long before the school was founded. For while Lander offers a full range of courses to nearly all students, it also offers a small number of specialty classes to a very select few. Lander is home to the Hero Certification Program, a curriculum designed to develop students with superhuman capabilities, commonly known as Supers, into official Heroes.

It’s never a good combo to be broke and desperate. You do stupid things. Like accidentally sign your soul over to hell. When I interviewed for a new security job, I didn’t bat an eye that it was for a literal graveyard shift...headstones and all. I mean, at the hourly rate they were offering, who cares? I got this. Turns out, I’m not guarding a graveyard like I thought. It seems I’ve just walked my broke ass into protecting a gate to hell. Yeah...I don’t got this.

It's finally over...
Ok, let's start with the good.
the premise is good. it's so unique and out of the box that I love it. It was the only thing that kept me going. Although the story was loooooooooooooooooong I had to know what was gonna happen in the end. The fact that I couldn't predict the ending is another kudos to the author. (I mean as far as the surprise twist with what's his face)
Then there's the main character...is she really 20? because ALL her actions and desicions seem to contradict her age. it's so annoying and unrealistic . Especially because she's a runaway. Runaways have to grow up faster and be more mature than everyone else simplest because in their situation they can't afford to be naive. This chick...man.
and I'm gonna need the author to look up a synonym for erupted. coz every chapter something is erupting outta this girls chest.
lastly, the reader. oh. my. gosh. She was bad. That sometimey accent she put on cole....Lawd! and I could have done without the crying. just read! leave something to the imagination.
maybe one day I'll get around to the sequel. but sheeesh. I need a little break before that.

The Nightmare From Judgement Day
I loved ....I loved... loved this set of books and only hope Keary Taylor continues to write this Saga.
It's somewhat put me on the mind frame of Twilight Fiction Fan, however with Angels & Demons instead of Vampires.
Jessica is so my type of normal chick with kra-kra troubles .. who ends up meeting the hot sexy buff rich guy, Alex while the hottest Baddest ACE Angel in Hell is chancing after her affections?
This is an awesome must listen to Audible.com favorite ...I first came across this book on my kindle on Amazon and wanted so badly to hear it narrated ....well, I must say...Great Job Anne Silvey....smoothly done 4star performance.... luved ....luved ..luved you! The villain in the story Cole even makes you wana fan yourself ....way to go Keary! keep writing ...I'll keep reading....

Fun read, no great thinking required
I enjoyed this book. I found it engaging and yes a bit formulaic but sometimes the formula works, right? I'd consider it light reading. The story weaves around the characters and drew me in. It's not the next great novel probably more on par with twilight than Tolkien but in my opinion there is a place for reading just to enjoy. I listened to this and the other out now in this series at 1.25 speed and was able to maintain the story with no problem. Not sure if that is a good or bad sign but for me it means I can enjoy it trickling into my head without the need to have deep thoughts about the content or story. Personally when I just want to veg that is the sweet spot as far as I am concerned.
The book provides a glimpse into an alt universe where angels decide the fate of man and Angels include both the heavenly and devilish. Of course it has a base in a love story with intrigue. Good guy vs bad guy. Lots of misunderstandings and miscommunications. Inner dialogue that is self centered. And in the end the good guy ... Oops I'll leave that for you to discover.
It's true that you must suspend disbelief quite a bit for this book, but that could be said for most in the genre. It never pushed me beyond my I'm ok with not thinking too deeply about xyz mode. It was light reading with a fairly original, at least I've never encountered it, story line.

If I had to read it I wouldn't have
Audible makes getting through some books easier. This story was OK. The performance was not. I was hoping she'd get better she didn't. and that made it hard to enjoy the story. But this story was full of great details and short on actual good story.

Unique YA story about angels
Would you try another book from Keary Taylor and/or Anne Marie Susan Silvey?
Yes - I liked this story. It was a little slow but the story was unique, thought provoking and definitely provided an escape from reality.
What about Anne Marie Susan Silvey’s performance did you like?
The narrator did a fair job with the various characters voices which helped in distinguishing which character was speaking.
Was Branded worth the listening time?
Yes and No. It was a little slow at times but other times I was engaged in what was happening. I had an overwhelming need to know what happened, so I sped up the narration to help get through the slower parts of the story more quickly. It seemed to help.

Mediocre
Worth a try! The narrator did a great job. she read with such emotion. In contrast, the story was slow. It did have a nice end, but it drug on too long. There was too much description (never thought I would say something like that) and too much long winded monologues. It had such great potential. However, the story line was an original one and that is why I continued and why I encourage you to give it a try, if not for the sheer originality of it all.

What would you do if you nightmares were real?
Jessica is a young woman who keeps a wary distance from most people. Whenever she falls asleep she is judged by condemned and exalted angels for the lives others have led. Whether she goes up or down there is always pain. Anyone she has ever told including her parents assured her they are only dreams but Jessica knows the truth.
While bits of the story seem repetitive in the beginning stay with it. Silvey is a great narrator and I am looking into her other performances.

Interesting premises
This was definitely an interesting premises for this story. I have not read / listened to anything with this type of storyline and it definitely kept my attention. The narrator did a nice job. I think I will try listening to the next book and see what happens and if I will continue the series or not. I really do like the characters in the stoey!
