About this listen

I'm not a powerful witch, just a fortune teller making ends meet.

When my grandmother, the leader of the Rathmore Coven, summons me, I have no choice but to answer her call. To reach her, I must cross the Wood, the realm of Wotan, lord of the hunt. Rumors of his cruelty and brutality precede him, but nothing prepares me to meet the monster face to face.

Because Wotan is more than a monster. He's a predator, a bully, and now he's claimed me as his pawn in his war against my grandmother. A master of torture, he's determined to master me, stripping me bare of all my secrets.

As much as I fear him, I'm drawn to him. His rough edges conceal a softer side—and I find myself wondering if I can be the one to finally tame him. With my life hanging in the balance, I've got to fight to uncover the truth about Wotan, my grandmother… and maybe my own destiny.

"Big Bad Wolf" X His little witch!

Having read and loved the written story very much, I was beyond happy to see this was out on audio! Both Thom and Graves did beyond amazing with brining both Ryder and Wotan to life! Especially with how deep, growly, commanding, and sexy Graves voice was for Wotan! Highly, highly recommend checking this audiobook out! Worth the purchase! I know I look forward to the next books on audio as well! Amazing job good sirs!

Such a cute story!

Wotan and Rider are such a cute couple! I personally ate them right up. I loved how Rider was able to calm and claim Wotans icy heart. I only have one dislike with the book and that was how short and quickly they fell in love with eachother. I felt like there could have been some more sweets scenes leading up to it but there wasn't. one second it's "I don't trust you" then it's "I love you all of a sudden". kinda quick but still a good listen.

Perfect choice or narrators!

I love Tor Thom and Kirt Graves in everything I’ve heard them do but this was perfect for each of their voices. The post apocalyptic storyline is really interesting and I’m hoping there’s more details as the series continues.

The overall story

Over all loved the story and performance. I would say it was a little fast paced and a little more sex season than I’m use to, but none the less still loved it! I can’t wait to see what book two holds in store.

Watch out for the woods

This is a fun retelling of Little Red Riding Hood. Going to grandmother’s house takes on a whole new meaning.

Hunt the Wood

Same story to a few other books I’ve read. If you’re in to dom/sub books with death threats and mental and physical abuse, then this book is for you. Wish this was described in synopsis.

Morally a mess

Hunt the Wood is a story that, in essence, boils down to a supernatural mob boss who rapes an innocent man, catches feelings, then they live happily ever after together. Ok.

All right, i admit that’s a little simplistic, and maybe not entirely fair since the blurb is pretty up front about the kind of person Wotan is, so, buyer beware, right? I’ve read and enjoyed dark romance about morally repugnant characters. My problem with the morality of the book and the world the two authors have created lies more in the hypocrisy. Because they try to have it both ways: they want Wotan to be a murderous rapist but they also want him to be a teddy bear that we root for.

They fall back on the same tired trope that Lily Mayne does in her (suspiciously similar) monster series: we’re so used to humanity being portrayed as evil or selfish that it’s just taken as a given. So it doesn’t matter that the monsters are all pretty savage, we’re supposed to believe that the human resistance to their hostile takeover of our world is a bad thing. At least in Mayne’s worldbuilding, the monsters are genuinely frightful and alien; the monsters in this world are basically no different from humans, but with special powers. This is—to put it in a way modern pink-haired outrage jockeys can understand—colonization, but in this case we’re meant to sympathize with the colonizers because humans = bad.

Anyway there’s an overuse of the word “male,” a marshmallow-centered rapist and the whole thing is just a mess. And there’s nothing wrong with telling a morally gray story but don’t tell me it’s not really morally gray at all because everyone gets what they deserve. And don’t tell me it’s ok because Ryder enjoyed himself; Wotan has a dungeon specifically for sex torture and surely Ryder isn’t its first occupant. You can’t have your cake and eat it too.
