About this listen
With his talent for divining the future, Alex Verus should have foreseen his friends' reactions to the revelations about his previous life. Anne Walker no longer trusts him - and has also cut all ties with the mage community after getting kicked out of the apprentice program. As a favor to Luna, Alex's own apprentice and Anne's best friend, he checks in on her only to be told to leave her alone. Then Anne gets kidnapped. The Council Keepers of the Order of the Star believe that Dark mages from her past may be involved. Working with the Keepers, Alex and Luna discover that Anne has been taken into the shadow realm of Sagash, her former Dark mage mentor, and they must find a way to rescue her. But another shadow from the past has resurfaced - Alex's former master may be back in London, and Alex has no idea what his agenda is....

Story
Stephen Oakwood is a young man on the edge of this hidden world. He has talent and potential, but turning that potential into magical power takes money, opportunity, and training. All Stephen has is a minimum wage job and a cat. But when a chance encounter with a member of House Ashford gets him noticed by the wrong people, Stephen is thrown in the deep end. For centuries, the vast corporations and aristocratic Houses of the magical world have grown impossibly rich and influential by hoarding their knowledge.

Thought it would be boring
Any additional comments?
It took me a long time to pick up the first book in this series and read it. The premise always seemed boring to me, but it is not. Jacka has created a really fun urban fantasy series. The series follows a diviner and his apprentice through various adventures. The protagonist is a moderate talent of one very specialized skill, and his intelligence keeps him alive. This is a book in which the reader is not just told the protagonist is intelligence and expected to accept it as a truly predictable story unfolds. The protagonist does demonstrate intelligence through his creativity. Give this series a try. You will enjoy it.

Pretty good sequel
Magic blended with bad guys chasing good guys. Plots now becoming predictable, somewhat bland, but still entertaining.
Too many magic tricks. Hard to keep track of them.
Narration is brilliant. Love the unique, gravelly voice.
Recommend not listening to more of this series back to back. Becomes tedious and tiresome.

Talk about exciting, another great book!!!
That is what I love about Benedict Jacka's books, it is exciting from the first chapter. Alex gets himself and others in some really sticky situations. Gildart Jackson does a really great job performing these books. It's like a full cast of characters. It's hard to believe all of those voices come out of one person. I was glad when in this book Alex actually talked about age. I just guessed that Alex was more mature than the apprentices, but not by just 8 years. Good to know.

Just loving this series!
I like the dynamic in this series between the tarnished hero Alex and the rest of the magic community. Adds an extra dimension of intrigue to the Good/Bad framework of most supernatural series. The author makes an interesting cast of characters that cycle in and out of the narrative smoothly
My only quibble is that I don't really feel like the story is needs to be based in London. If you are reading to feel a vicarious connection then maybe the Peter Grant series would serve you better.

The best in series so far
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I would and have recommended this series to several of my friends. Anyone who enjoys The Dresden Files, or Felix Castor series, or John Taylor & The Night Side series has to love this one.
What other book might you compare Hidden to and why?
I can only compare it to other series of books and I named them above.
What does Gildart Jackson bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Gilbert Jackson is wonderful in this series. He does both male and female voices and emotions of all characters fantastically, I hope he continues to narrate this series. I also hope that more books in this series come out real soon. I finished all five books in this series in under 10 days.....
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Sometimes you have to be bad to be good.
Any additional comments?
This series shows that both good people can be nasty and that nasty people can be good. We are humans after all and make choices. I love that about this series. Also that the characters grow in each book to show new strengths in their personality. Must have more Alex...

Alex faces emotional vulnerability and an old fear
This series gets better and better. I'm excited about what is coming next for Alex. I love that there are now emotional entanglements and real friendships in the cast of characters, despite the fact that much of that seems in jeopardy at the end of this book. We are finally seeing payoff from the circumstances introduced in the first couple of books and how interconnected these threats may be.
