Publisher's summary

To-do list: Cow tip the Minotaur. Cure a reptile dysfunction.

My name is Nate Temple, and I’m secretly a wizard. I ride a foul-mouthed unicorn, drink with Achilles, and am pals with the Four Horsemen. I’ve even cow tipped the Minotaur. I understand the theory of following the rules. I’m just not very good at the application.

Because, rules were meant to be broken. Especially when I find out a monster just murdered my parents.

Now all I can hear is the sweet, soothing song of vengeance in my ears, playing on repeat.

But when shifter dragons come to town, I’m forced to step away from hunting down the scumbag murderer. Because, I know the cure for a reptile dysfunction and the dragons aren’t going to like it.

This fight soon opens up Pandora’s Box, and suddenly, every flavor of supernatural thug is after me. The only way out of it - to save my city - is to murder my best friend.

I didn’t want, ask for, or start any of this. But I will finish it. It’s time I show St. Louis that magic is very, very real. And that an angry wizard is truly something to see - at least once in your life. You know, right before he puts you and everyone you've ever met in the grave.

If you like Jim Butcher, Sarah J. Maas, Kevin Hearne, Steve McHugh, Michael Anderle, Ilona Andrews, Patricia Briggs, Shannon Mayer, or K.F. Breene, you won't be able to put down the highly addictive Nate Temple Series.

Best series ever

Nate Temple has been a favorite since I randomly found the series. Shayne is a master at writing a story that sucks you in and makes u apart of the story simply by reading it. Love it and highly recommend to anyone

Really good

I love the story, I just thought the narrator was a bit monotone. Kinda hard to listen to but the story was so good I had to keep going.

Bodleian Son

Great action, kept me wanting more. Nate Temple holds my interest wanting to see where his power is coming from and where it is going to take him.

Great story!! (Repurchased for narrator)

I have the entire collection of the Nate Temple Series. It started with this first book, however, it was read by another narrator, and so it threw me off when the rest of the series is read by Richards. I repurchased it upon seeing that it had been reread by Joel, who portrayed the characters better, in my opinion. I’m listening to it now and loving it!
