In the year 2047, Lochlan takes the bus to his soul-sucking job answering phones to remain unnoticed. Life is easier that way. Little attachment. Few friends. That means less people caught in the crossfire when he loses control again.

The last time he came close to losing it was when he was around Zemila. That was five years ago, just before he disappeared. That was why he disappeared. He’s good at that. Disappearing. Resettling. Being overlooked.

That is, until the visions started. Prophetic visions.

That’s when he knew the Old World had found him.

These weren’t the fun kind of visions…if there were such a thing. They were the watch-people-die kind, the try-to-stop-it-before-it-happened kind, the maybe-save-some-lives kind. He thought the visions were his redemption. A redemption he didn’t believe he deserved. When one of them led him to Zemila, he thought it meant he wasn’t a danger to her anymore. That he wasn’t a danger to anyone anymore.

Power attracts enemies. Lochlan thought he’d learned this lesson.

He was wrong. Wrong about the visions. Wrong about everything. And it was going to cost him.

Him and everyone he loved.

I loved the concept of the main character. A mythological Demi God in the future very cool. I also really liked your magic system. It’s simple enough to understand but complex enough to where it’s not a get out of jail free card. Overall a great listen. I highly recommend this if you enjoy magic and technology complementing each other but still grounded in a realistic future.

Loved the concept.

I felt bad for Lochlan because of his curse. He lived a life running from his past & evil. He tried to keep to himself with few friends and a boring job. He thought hiding from his past would keep Zemilla safe but he was wrong. A great read. This is a new author for me & I am impressed. Great job!

I received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review

I am not a native English speaker, it takes a bit longer for me to listen to books and completely understand them, sometimes because of the narrator it is almost not doable. That was this time definitely not the case. The narrator did an awesome job, His Irish accent is just great haha.

This book is definitely a must have and must listen, The demi god Llochlan is a great character, it is full of magic, drama, adventure, everything a good book need!!
I started it and couldn't put my headphones down and I don't have that a lot with books I don't know.

I already finished the second book, but I won't spoil it here ;)

Yesss great story!

This was a lot of fun to read. I enjoyed the premise, the magic, the mythology, and the suspense. I really enjoyed the addition of celtic and demigods into the story - what an interesting twist!

The characters were well developed and deeply flawed, which gave them a believable quality. The world building was top notch and rich with texture.

I cannot wait to find out what happens next.

Fascinating
