Publisher's summary

Cisco Suarez versus an entire Caribbean drug cartel. Round one. Fight.

Okay, not exactly the most even championship match, but it's the one I drew. If you told me months ago I'd be robbing drug dealers, I would've committed you myself. Who needs that kind of trouble, right?

The good news is I'm only after one man: Connor Hatch. The bad news is he's the new Pablo Escobar, a primal being, and all but untouchable.

It gets worse. He's rounding up the Russian mob for something big, and I'm not the only spellslinger in the picture. They say follow the money or follow the drugs. Maybe I should keep an eye on who's following me.

Some problems call for a delicate hand. I don't have those kinds of problems.

Can't get enough of this series. Just when you think it's almost over or you haven't figured out things change, plot changes the people change, the events and locations change. Always keeps me wanting more. thank you

Worthy addition to the series!

Note: This is Book 4 in the series and really needs to be read as part of that series, not as a stand alone.

The Spaniard really shines in this book. His acerbic wit and gruff personality provide the perfect counterpoint to Cisco’s snark. In this book, a really important point about the Spaniard is revealed and this made some touching moments between Cisco and him.

As with the other books in this series, there’s plenty of action. In fact, one of my favorite scenes is the big opening. It’s a car chase and pretty soon there’s plenty of cocaine snowing down. Cisco thinks rolling around in it makes for fine crime fighting… or rather, stealing from other criminals. Ha!

The Horn of Subjugation, which the Spaniard is attached to, continues to be an object of desire. Everyone wants it and Cisco has to keep it safe. It’s a full time job and the grumpy Spaniard doesn’t always make it an enjoyable one.

Cisco does spend some serious page time feeling sorry for himself. To be fair, it’s only been weeks since he awoke from his mindless zombie status, but it’s been just over 10 years for everyone else. His ex-girlfriend Emily has moved on… with his best friend Evan. So that hurts, but Cisco figured this out a book or 2 ago so I’m ready for him to be able to put that on the back burner while he deals with more important matters. Alas, his self-centered nature alienates him from his few remaining friends, like Milena (Cisco’s sister’s best friend from high school). He makes plenty of dumb mistakes in this book, some of which he’s already made earlier in the series. Cisco may well be a slow learner and that is a little boring for me.

There are some great villains in this story. Connor Hatch is a chilling, ruthless antagonist that will be hard to take down! Erg! I love hating him but I also look forward to Cisco taking him out. Then there’s a jinn with a screw loose and a headless zombie. And how exactly does one take out a headless zombie? Well, I’ll hold Cisco’s beer while he shows you. Ha!

The ending left me conflicted. Cisco makes a big decision and he’s driven by good reasons, but it also makes it easier for Connor Hatch to destroy so many other people. Big things are revealed and Cisco learns some keys things about those in his life. So I liked all the big stuff going on as it sets us up perfectly for Book 5. Yet I also wonder if Cisco may have made one too many mistakes to survive this series. Guess I’ll have to find out! 4.5/5 stars.

The Narration: Neil Hellegers is just really great with this series. His performance as Cisco is spot on, complete with light accent and machismo. I love his voice as the Spaniard! His female voices are believably feminine and all his character voices are distinct. There were no technical issues with this recording. 5/5 stars.

Great Addition to the Black Magic Outlaw Series

Powder Trade is a great continuation of the highly enjoyable Black Magic Outlaw series. The series as a whole has been highly enjoyable and is easily my favorite Urban Fantasy series. Cisco is a highly relatable protagonist, and his constant one liners kept me laughing throughout the book. Unfortunately, it felt like his attitude was toned down a bit for this book. Either way, I thoroughly enjoyed following Cisco on his quest to destroy the entire Miami drug trade. As with the previous books, the action starts early and kept me engaged throughout the entire novel. Neil Hellegers does another great job with this novel. He uses a wide variety of voices and accents to bring all the characters to life, and I couldn’t imagine anyone else voicing Cisco. In the end, this book is a great continuation of the series and I can’t wait for book five.

Dresden's got nothing on the Shadow Charmer

Necromancy, mayhem, and a family in danger.

The badass zombies go without saying.

Domino Finn's and Neil Hellegers knocked this one out of the park.

Shits about to go down, and you'll never see it coming.

Awesome addition to the series!

Cisco Suarez is going after the leader of the Caribbean drug cartel, Connor Hatch. Tag along for a spectacular spell slinging showdown full of monsters, action, adventure and gritty urban fantasy fun. This series shows no sign of slowing down or burning out – it just keeps getting better and better. I love reading the books and I love listening to Neil Hellegers narrate the audiobooks. He lends the perfect voice to Cisco and brings all the other characters alive, as well. If you enjoy dark urban fantasy, this is definitely a series worth investigating. Always a fun ride and, as usual, I am really looking forward to the next adventure.

I was provided with a copy of the audiobook by the author and I am voluntarily offering my honest and unbiased review.
