Samuel Branch is a man capable of wielding the energy around him to devastating effect. In another time, he would have been revered and feared as a wizard. In an age of technological miracles, the world has no need of his services. When a dangerous messenger arrives with orders from the ancient and unimaginably powerful Lords and the Ladies, though, Samuel Branch has no choice but follow the trail of a rising darkness. To complicate matters, when the sister of a friend-turned-enemy goes missing, an old lover resurfaces demanding that he intervene. When it all comes down, Samuel Branch may find that a rising darkness is the least of his problems.

As for the story, the characters are likeable enough, but there's no suspense worth mentioning. The wizard acquires new powers along the way, which is fine, but what remains a mystery is how he immediately knows not only how to use them, but to get the absolute most out of them. He is such an adept that even the divine powers that be are surprised at some of the things he does, for they did not know it was possible.
I don't find those kinds of things believable at all. The main character should have experienced some kind of serious personal struggle, a steep learning curve, some odds working against him. But everything he does succeeds, nothing to stay up for, unfortunately.
A note for parents: this story contains an explicit sex scene, do not let your young children listen to this book.
In conclusion, I really like the story's concepts and premises, but the storytelling needs some work, imho.
I find it an okay story, and following Audible's star rating system that brings me to 2 stars ("okay").
I'm grateful this book was given to me for free at my request, and I provided this review voluntarily.
