À propos de cet audio

Alex Verus must keep his friends close - and his enemies closer - in the epic conclusion to the best-selling urban fantasy series about a London-based mage.

Mage Alex Verus has gone from a Camden shopkeeper to one of the most powerful mages in Britain. Now his last and most dangerous battle lies before him. His lover, the life mage Anne, has fallen fully under the control of the deadly creature she made a bargain with, and it is preparing to create an army of mages subject to its every whim.

Alex, the Council, and the Dark mage Richard Drakh agree to call a truce in their war, and plans are made for a joint attack. But Alex knows that it's only a matter of time before Drakh and the Council turn on each other...and neither cares about keeping Anne alive. Can Alex figure out a way to stop Anne and to free her from possession before time runs out?

I know the numbers don’t add up. I am addressing the series as a whole. Some books were more enjoyable than others. Primarily the first several books in this series. However the last few have been a tad tedious. Probably better to have read them rather than listened. Easier to go back to check the information. Personally I found the battles to be particularly tedious in this book. I liked the ending. I would still recommend the series to anyone. I sincerely hope the authour continues to publish other stories.

Glad it’s over.

The final book in the ALEX VERUS series is a story of choice, power, and sacrifice, all of which lead to an intense and action-filled conclusion.

Alex has gone through quite the journey to get to this final showdown with his enemies, both human and not. He definitely has a couple dark moments and while he didn’t compromise as much as I’d thought he’d might, there is no denying the results he got. Alex is a character that will do the job, no matter what it costs him.

The side characters are much the same, with Luna and Anne especially getting the strongest development. I would’ve liked to have seen more with other characters, but I always enjoyed seeing those two women change and adapt.

Though there are emotional moments and drama, much of the book focuses on the action as Alex moves from one battle to the next. Those scenes kept me on my toes because no one was safe, yet I found they all led to a satisfying conclusion.

This series has been on my TBR for years, so it was immensely satisfying to finally binge it and scratch the urban fantasy itch I’ve had for so long. Perfect for fans of the genre!
