À propos de cet audio

A whip-smart adventure fantasy packed with reality-bending magic, and sapphic romance, The Last Hour Between Worlds is the brilliant launch of a new series from David Gemmell Award-nominated author, Melissa Caruso.

In the Deep Echoes, no one can save you.

Kembral Thorne has a few hours away from her newborn, and she’s determined to enjoy herself at the year-turning ball. But when guests start dropping dead, she can’t help sniffing out trouble—she’s a Hound, after all. Especially when her professional and personal nemesis, notorious burglar Rika Nonesuch, is also on the prowl.

Everyone knows you shouldn’t get involved with Echo games. Let alone one involving ancient Echo lords who can turn layers of reality into a gameboard with human lives for pieces. But as the ballroom grows stranger and more otherworldly with each strike of the hour, it’s clearly too late.

Kem knows the rules: One Echo down is no big deal. Stay alert for trouble.

Four Echoes down, there are things with eyes in their teeth, and walls that drip blood. Four is the limit.

As the party plunges through increasingly deadly realities, the rules can’t help Kem anymore. She’ll have to rely on her wits—and Rika—to unravel the most dangerous game of the century before it unleashes catastrophe on their world.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"A charming fantasy mystery that kept me guessing until the very last page—I completely adored this book and would read a dozen more of Kembral's adventures."—Shannon Chakraborty, New York Times bestselling author of The Adventures of Amina al-Sirafi

“This book has everything you've been craving: sword fights, time loops, complicated feelings about parenthood, and banter with your sworn enemy. What an absolute delight!"—Alix E. Harrow, New York Times bestselling author
The Last Hour Between Worlds is a masterpiece—filled with excitement, romance, and characters you would protect with your life. The wobbly time effects in this book reach past its pages, making hours of reading blink by in a moment. Unmissable!”—Andrea Stewart, author of The Bone Shard Daughter

I thoroughly enjoyed The Last Hour Between Worlds. Initially, it took me a few chapters to fully grasp the intricacies of the plot and the unique world the author has created. However, as the story continued, I found myself hooked. The story unfolded in a way that kept me guessing, with unexpected twists and characters that draw you in. A nice fantasy and mystery combo.

What I particularly liked about this book is its originality. The author has crafted a fantasy realm that feels fresh and innovative, breaking away from typical tropes often found in the genre. Each chapter reveals new layers (or echoes) of the story, and I found myself eager to listen to what would happen next.

This was exactly the kind of fantasy book I enjoy, original, immersive, and compelling.

an adult protagonist who just had a baby has to deal with an end-of-the-world matter at the least expected moment, and needs to ally herself with her situationship-turned-angsty-rivalry girl crush.
the characters were just like the worldbuilding: smoothly detailed and full of surprises
also the narration is so funny and personnal to the MC, i swear i lost it at "what i wasn't expecting was a giant. fucking. SPIDER." and "Dammit, now i wanted to lick it too!"
100/10 most definitely recommend
