Publisher's summary

Revenge is a dish best served cold.

The guild of artificers is so close to completion, Jackson Pryde can almost taste it. Befriending the Black Market's guilds has paid off. Everyone agrees that Jackson should become master of the artificers, even Mother Dough, the powerful guild of bakers.

But it’s not all sugar and spice. A strange sorcerer has reawakened Xander's interest in Incandescence. The second AI has unearthed a bizarre blueprint. And not everything is as it seems in the Verdance.

Tensions mount as the fae courts question the value of human friendship–and human life. Jackson and Xander may have saved the King of Summer, but now they must face the wrath of the Queen of Winter.

Battle of Winter

In this installment of Arcane Hearts, Jackson and Xander take on the fae Queen of Winter. The boy’s relationship is challenged by a new Incandescent who takes a liking to Xander. Jackson grows the artificier’s guild and takes on the role of guild master. In true Nari Noor fashion Claws of Winter is a well written an enjoyable read with some spiciness and danger thrown in. The boys take the next steps to saving the world and repairing connections with the Verdance as well as moving their relationship to the next step.

Zachary Johnson does an amazing job with the narration of this series. His voice for Jackson is so deep and manly! He really makes the characters come alive and is so easy to listen to.

I love this series and cannot wait until the next book in the series. I will be soooo sorry when it is done. I hope Jackson and Xander have cameos in some of the other series.

snark, humor, meddling deities

Zachary Johnson’s narration is just perfection in this series. Firstly, he IS Jackson. I can’t imagine anyone else embodying Jack the way he does. Secondly, the nuances, inflections, and accents of the cast of characters are outstanding. The evolution of Jackson and Xander’s relationship has been a wild ride. The introduction of The Incandescent character makes Jackson’s insecurities rise again, which is seen throughout this book. We still have adventure, mystery, meddling deities and frustrating parents. All with strong friend and family connections and of course plenty of snark and humor. We’re left with a few questions and I can’t wait to hear how the series wraps up. It can’t come soon enough. I’m not impatient AT.ALL.

I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy.

Wow; I loved this story!

This book was so much fun and enjoyable! The author, Nazri Noor, writing style is amazing; I love the complexity and the forethought in regards to the details within the story. Zachary Johnson did a great job bringing this story to life. I did not want to stop listening, but I had to get sleep! Xander and Jackson’s relationship deepens and they get even closer; I can’t wait for their wedding! I need their wedding details and ceremony in the next book and I’m so excited for the next book. I highly recommend this audiobook!

Love this series

The story continue with this love struck couple and group of friends. Xander and Jackson are compelled to confront the Winter Fae Queen as well as Xander's parents. The series is great as long as you can handle the spice. I love how the shadow and fae communities are coming together to help each other. Will the Halls of Making come to fruition? Will the Pride AI become more autonomous? Will Jackson and Xander make a profit on their wares? You will just need to check on this book as well as the entire series to find out. If you love world(s) building, you'll love Nazri's work.

Zachary Johnson breaths life into the series. Definitely worth a listen!

Rather underwhelming

Compared to the other books in this series, this one felt lacking. Most of the book is spent traveling or sitting around talking, and when the action actually happens, it's glossed over and rushed through. Add in that it was shorter than usual and it felt more like a filler between books than an actual book itself.
