Publisher's summary

Morgan Montgomery is waiting to die. Branded a traitor by her tribe, the Ikati shape-shifter has no hope for mercy - until Jenna, the Ikati’s newly crowned queen and Morgan’s former ally, offers one last chance for redemption. Morgan must infiltrate the Rome headquarters of the Expurgari, the Ikati’s ancient enemy, to destroy them once and for all. The beautiful renegade has just a fortnight to complete her mission or forfeit her life. But she does not travel alone.…

Xander Luna is a trained assassin and the Ikati’s most feared enforcer, famed for his swift brutality and stony heart. Fiercely loyal, he is prepared to hate the traitor under his watch - until they come face-to-face. For Morgan Montgomery arouses something unexpected inside of him - something that threatens everything he believes in and the fate of the tribe itself: a love as powerful and passionate as it is forbidden.

Brilliant

Any additional comments?


I really enjoyed this book and could have read it a lot faster if I hadn't just started a new job at the same time I received it! This was Morgan's book with her love interest being the Ikati Assassin Xander. It was great getting into her head and seeing how much she genuinely regretted what she did and maybe even craved home a little after trying to escape it for so long. There were also a couple of pretty big twists regarding the Expurgari that I won't reveal but that did take me by surprise at the end!
Xander was easy to like as well, he really had a rough childhood, much rougher then Morgan but he was a good person despite his own poor opinion of himself. I loved these two together as in a lot of ways they can understand each other better then just about anyone else.
I loved meeting the new colony as well and seeing how different they were from the colonies we know. I can see a future story involving Eliana and Demetrius being developed with how the book ended. I'd love to see those two end up together and I think that her fathers research may be important to the Ikati race and be life-changing for them so I'd like to see how it plays out and whether their colony will now make contact with the other colonies, reach out to them and form an alliance of sorts. I'd quite like that, they could come out of the tunnels and live above ground like the other colonies. I also want to see when Jenna (from the first book) is gonna start changing laws to improve the existence of female Ikati and to allow greater freedom in the tribe. I do hope that Morgan returns to the tribe eventually. I think she will miss them and that once she's travelled she may yearn to return home. Espeacially after what she learned. Can't wait for the next book!

Fast Fav.

I have quickly falling in love with this series. I was just looking to pass the time until the next next book in a series I was reading came out and I am so glad that someone recommended this book to me.

Dark story

A very dark & morose story with a couple love interests thrown in for good measure. This story has some fight scenes and some characters die. Good character, storyline, & plot development.

Great Book but bad Narrator

I have both versions of this. And it makes me sad that I payed the extra money to have the audio. The narrator makes me want to stop reading the actual book even though so far I love this series. She doesn't have a good rythm and sounds almost robotic. She does ok when changing between tones of characters but she varies to much between tones. I have to constantly change the volume when listening. The author did an amazing job on the storyline but I wouldn't recommend this narrator for this type of book ever.

Awesome book and narrator..

Any additional comments?

Great read! I loved this book as much as I did the first one. Love, love, loved Xander, he was awesome. Loved Morgan, she was terrific. I really like Bartleby, Tomas and Mateo, was very sorry about Julian.
The next book is about Eliana and Demetrius and I'm going to give it a try but I'm not even sure I like her. She was so selfish in this book. She knew Demetrius would be killed if he took her out and she didn't even seem to care if he was killed or not as long as she got to go outside. Well, maybe she'll be better in this book.

As to the narrator: There was a time when I said I never wanted to listen to Angela Dawe again then I accidentely bought another one narrated by her and I just couldn't believe it. She did a wonderful job on that book, just as she did on this one. The men's voices were just so damn sexy!!! Keep up the good work, Ms. Dawe..

Is it just me?

Has Angela Dawe lost her mojo or am I just over her? Why does she insert 4 vowels when a word only calls for two? Why does every sentence tip up at the end, as though she is attempting to imitate a valley girl with a mid-western accent? And, please god, tell me why is she hired to read Highlander romances?

So many questions, so many books to ruin.

I thought it was great that they replaced Justine Eyre in series -- until I found out who they replaced her with.

Back to reading this series on my Kindle.

Sigh.

Dark & Exciting

My review of book one said that some people thought this series resembled J.R. Ward's in it's darkness but I didn't see it...well book two brought out that darkness of the characters. It is still so exciting that I couldn't stop listening. This book takes place under the Vatican and also the catacombs in France. There is a lot of mythology & mystery. So much excitement that I couldn't wait to start book three. You won't be disappointed.

A disappointmen after listening to the first

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

No, the story was okay, the first book as better, but I found the narration annoying

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

Everything was tied up nicely, it was pretty sappy/cheesy, but a happy ending and that's important to me.

Would you be willing to try another one of Angela Dawe’s performances?

No, I've returned an audiobook after about 10 minutes of listening to her performance and didn't pay close enough attention to realize she was the narrator for this book as well and I feel like I was listening to a female version of William Shatner with her very dramatic reading of each and every sentence. And her pronunciation! Ugh! Alejandro is pronounced "Ollie-Jon"Dro," I mean, come on! It really bugged me, if you couldn't tell.

Did Edge of Oblivion inspire you to do anything?

No.

Great story!

I actually enjoyed it as much as the first book in this series. Very well written and performed. I actually felt the joy, torment and exhilaration of the characters.

I highly recommend this and I can't waiting to begin listening to the next book in this series.

Good but conflicting

3-4 Stars. I'm enjoying this series, and I'm not enjoying it. Basically something needs to change within the tribes. They way they treat their own, especially the females, is starting to anger me. Some are no better off than a slave would be. I also don't understand why Jenna from the first book hasn't squashed the Alphas who are lording their power over others. I didn't mention it in the first book review because I know there are 6 books in the series. I assumed we would start seeing things being changed. After finishing this book, I'm not seeing it yet. In fact, this book showed some worse things within a specific tribe. I do like Morgan and Xander, our main couple...after he stopped seeing her as a traitor. I think she was too harshly judged. When I learned the backstory for Xander, I feel he has been treated terribly as well. The rules of these tribes are very barbaric and I just don't get it. I'm hoping I can get past it or it changes because reading 6 books full of this will probably make my tolerance go way down.
