A Gilded Cage

Chronicles of an Urban Druid, Book 1

By: Auburn Tempest, Michael Anderle

Narrated by: Rachel Dulude

Ye screw with this lass, ye get put on yer ass.

Life sucker-punched me.... I have family I didn't know about, a magical heritage laying its claim, and a mystery I apparently need to solve.

There are three things I love most in life: my wild and crazy Irish family, Redbreast Whiskey at Shenanigans, and living in Toronto. Having grown up with five older brothers, I can fight my way out of most situations, either with my wicked sense of humor or my fists. Often both. But when a back-alley brawl leaves me marked with a bizarre Celtic crest on my back, I become a beacon for all things whacked and weird. My dad is obviously freaked when he sees the tat, but he won't discuss it. So, I do what any stubborn redheaded lass would - I ignore all advice and fly to the Emerald Isle to get answers.

And yeah...you know that saying about hindsight being 20/20? True story.

Look out, druid world. This mac Cumhaill is like no other.

Will Fiona survive coming into her powers? Will those in Ireland survive Fiona? Can Toronto survive an urban druid and her mythical bear?

Great fun

wonderful book about family, magic, duty and love. Finding out you have family,that you have magic and what it means to try it your way when convention says no.

Excellent Adventure

This is a fun adventure that pulls you along with it. I would use this book as an example of how a D&D game should go. She stumbles onto an adventure, the items and info she needs to complete the adventure are discovered along the way. Complete with a couple side quests just to gain experience, that do not detract from the main story. The only aspect that I don't care for is the propensity to lead up to a mystery or come up with a plan, and then just like on Scooby Doo, that info is with held from the readers until the proper settings are attained. Over all though, an excellent series.

An Amazing Urban Fiction

Without all the needless will they, won't they. Bonds unlike any urban fiction I've had the pleasure of listening to. And dialogue that is noteworthy.
Fun,fast paced with great explanation and easy to digest storyline.
To the voice actor who read this, kudos.
10/10 get into it.

Amazing!
