About this listen

For all the bodies she's encountering, you'd think beat cop Joanne Walker works in Homicide. But no, Joanne's a reluctant shaman who last saved mankind three months ago; surely she deserves more of a break! Yet, incredibly, "Armageddon, Take Two" is mere days away.

There's not a minute to waste. But when her spirit guide inexplicably disappears, Joanne needs help from other sources. Especially after she accidentally unleashes Lower World demons on Seattle. Damn. With the mother of all showdowns gathering force, it's the worst possible moment for Joanne to realize she should have learned more about controlling her powers.

This is a book worth a listen. I do agree that the first narrator is better for this particular series - but I don't agree that Gabra Zackman is too cynical. She is a talented storyteller and she is a narrator I look for now.

This stories continues where Urba Shaman left off. It is all about growing up inside of a skill or talent - and the wrong turns that one can take. It is not cynical - it is about choices the character makes that don't always fit. Granted, there are times you want to holler at her, but, we have all made stupid choices and the reader/listener can recognize herself quite easily.

Please Harlequin, put more Luna books on Audible!

I thought the change in narrator might make a difference, but it doesn't. This one is very good with this series. I didn't want to stop listening long enough to go to bed. Stayed up late, got up early the next morning to finish it. The started the next in the series.

entrancing, engrossing

I loved the first book with the Cab Driver. The excitement of what's going to happen next. This one I'm sure will connect the rest in the series, but I was hoping for more. I can't wait to listen to the next one in the series!

First book surprised me, #2 good but missing

I became concerned upon seeing the reader had changed in this series. I am very leery of purchasing series with multiple narrators. I eventually bought it out of love for the characters. I am really glad I did; in the beginning I felt a strong awareness of the difference. I surprisingly had no real complaint about her voice except she does deep voices for everyone, male or female. The story pulls you in and you forget the voice and hear only the story.
I adore Jo's running internal commentary. She in not a perfect person or all knowing, all seeing kind of character. Jo screws up. Jo screws up royally and globally then barely figures things out in time to minimize the damage. There is no tidy "and everything went back to normal" in this book. She pays the price of using power without knowledge.
I recommend this series to anyone who enjoys the Jane Yellowrock books by Faith Hunter, Iron Druid series by Kevin Hearne andRachel Morgan books by Kim Harrison.
BTW if you love these check out those they are on Audible.

Second book as good as the first.

Though it is hard to define as a romance, these stories are well written, captivating and enjoyable.

Great story and fun characters

can't listen to any more of the books! the first one was good the change in narrators has ruined it! I'm sorry to say it cuz I don't really like saying anything negative about a person's performance but Deborah zachman sounds like a robot! performance is flat and boring. oh well.

narrator sounds like a robot!

This reader made it very hard to enjoy this book as much as the first one. Her voice was very different from the woman that read that one. Men and women had the same voice used for them in this. Book.
Please use the original reader for the east of this series.

Like Urban Shaman, this is a fun read with undertones of thoughtfulness. Unlike Urban Shaman, the narrator does nothing for the story (hence only 3 stars instead of 4). Christine Carroll (who read the first in the series) hit just the right mix of wry humour and emotion, whereas Gabra Zachman is entirely too laconic and urban-cynical and the story suffers because of it.

Where's Christine Carroll

I really enjoyed the 1st book in this series esp. with the original narrator. This narrator isn't bad, but I thought the 1st one was exceptional. The story is okay but drags on and on during the middle. I would have liked more plot and less "trips to the lower world". I also would have liked more about the growing relationship she has with her boss, Morrison. Hello, a little romance is nice. Overall, it was a 3 1/2 star to start then dropped to a 1 1/2 star in the middle but redemnend itself at the end. so 3 stars. I think I'm going to listen to the 3rd book....just to see if the author decides to develop her "love" interest.

Okay. Not as good as Urban Shaman
