About this listen
Samantha Brooks assumed the hardest things she'd have to face in life were college exams and her slowly fracturing family. Then her father found the world's most powerful magic in his silverware drawer. Forcibly relocated to the secret elven capitol city of Evitankari, Roger Brooks bravely faced down the manipulative Witch and an ancient demon lord and miraculously came out on top. The aftermath of that battle has left the elven government in ruins and the Brooks family in great danger. With few allies and even fewer friends, Roger turns to the only person he knows he can count on: his daughter. As Samantha tries to make sense of her new life in Evitankari and the shadowy forces swirling around her father, she finds herself facing down the real life inspirations for the characters in her favorite novel series. Are they friend or foe? The truth, as they say, is always so much stranger than fiction.

Story
When twenty-something Kevin Felton loses his job and moves back in with his mother, he assumes life can't possibly get any worse. He used to be somebody at a big time company—now he's just another nobody with no direction and nothing to do but get drunk and fantasize over the strange blue woman that lives in his dreams. Little does he know, there’s more to his world than he ever imagined, and he’s about to be thrown headfirst into a particularly deadly kind of fantasy.

Story
Most of the successful private prospectors who’d struck it rich during the California and Nevada gold rushes during the mid- to late-1800s, had journeyed westward with a specific plan from which they never deviated. Upon achieving their pre-defined goals, they packed up and returned to their original homes in distant regions of the United States. There were also plenty of others, who’d been unable to pull the plug after striking it rich, believing their lucky streak to be a never-ending one.

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Humans meet magic
I was a little confused through the whole book, but I think that is because this is book 4 and it is all I know of the series. I liked the girls interactions with the elves, and the tree.

EVERY BOOK GETS BETTER!!!
This book really picks up where Shotgun left off. Book 3 was fun; DON'T SKIP IT; but not necessary for this one. Here, we see Roger's daughter Samantha teaming up with him (because he can't trust anyone else!) to investigate some really shady deals. Once again, it's hard to know who the real bad guys are! The narrator carries you through effortlessly, with emotion and humor and so many great characters! And the whole thing about Samantha's teen novel heroes being actual real people? Genius.

Not the end
I initially thought this will be the last book of the series but I was wrong /and I also didn't check, this is just the last released book so far/. The story continues in Evitankari, reveals a few secrets and schemes but generally serves as a connecting book, setting up a more concise continuation with the previous books serving as plot backgrounds from different characters that probably will mash up in the future book(s). I hope the next one comes out soon 😊 The story is definitely far from over and it would be unwise to wrap it up fast.
