A husband and wife brought together by magic strive to stop a war of the worlds in an epic adventure of hope, sorcery, and secrets by Wall Street Journal bestselling author Jeff Wheeler.
What humankind feared the most has come to pass: the Awakening of the Aesir, an ancient race who rose with an implacable vengeance to wage war on mortals through bombardments and plague. Two people gifted with magic and ingenuity strive to stop them.
Professor Robinson Hawksley, an elocutionist in the Invisible College, prepares to exhibit his invention to the world. Using sound to defeat the enemy could change the course of the war. It’s invaluable to the military. Even more so to a conniving rival who’ll do anything to prove its patent as her own. An extraordinary obstacle could stand in the way: Robinson’s new wife, McKenna, robbed of her hearing by an Aesir scourge, is otherwise blessed with mysterious powers she’s only beginning to comprehend. She’s also harboring a secret that could get her killed.
As a very human war escalates inside the Invisible College, a supernatural one with the Aesir rages outside. But are love and sorcery enough for Robinson and McKenna to conquer both?

The two main characters are a young married couple that are gifted with magic. Robinson Foster Hawksley and McKenna Aurora Hawksley (he takes her last name so she can get credit for the invention) keep working together with the purpose to stop a war between the Aesir (immortals) and the Mortals by using sound. Erlking rules the Aesir who's honor is bound to the truth while the Mortals use any means to archive their goal like duplicity and conniving. It reminded me of how's is nowadays 😔 even though to me the time in the story is the19th century.
General Colsterworth frequently participates in the narrative even with all the duties he has at the Gresham College in Bishopsgate and continues to pursue McKenna because he's sure she is semblance. His superior Master Drusselmehr starts harassing him because of all the things he has done.
It seems that everyone has conspired against Robinson so he won't be able to present his invention at the exhibit. And with all disputes inside the Invisible College it complicates things.
This book has a cliffhanger but I recommend it while you have book 1 fresh in your mind. I don't always remember the prior book and Mr Wheeler made me very happy when he wrote snippets of things that happened in book 1. I don't know where he get some of the words so I had to look them up to find out there are not in the dictionary.
So much intrigue and mystery you won't be able to stop listening.
