A Shift in Darkness

A Lost Legacies Prequel Novella

By: Maddox Grey

Narrated by: Krys Janae

There is nothing I will not give for revenge.

Sebastian has to die. There is nothing else that matters to me. But I’ve been hunting him for decades and have nothing to show for it beyond a broken soul. My body is failing. And the magic that I keep changed within my soul is close to breaking free.

I can’t seem to bring myself to care.

My friends, however, are unwilling to let me destroy myself in the name of revenge. I’ve been able to ignore their pleas to stop my mad pursuit until now. Pele offers me something I can’t resist. A real chance at finding Sebastian.

So I accept what should be a simple job. Escort a bunch of magic-barren people back to their home realm so they can find their lost magic. But this place isn’t the empty wasteland I was told it was.

Something still lurks there. Something monstrous… and hungry.

This is a prequel novella to the Lost Legacies series and takes place directly before the events of A Shift in Shadows.

Prequel

Great world building and characters. I loved seeing this storyline and how it all started. The narrator did an amazing job.

Great glimpse at this series!!

This novella is a great introduction into this magical world and a glimpse at some characters. I really liked the main character, Nemain. The story is well written and the audio narration was very enjoyable. Looking forward to more!

I Liked It

This story kept me engaged from beginning to end, I liked it and thought the story flowed well. The world-building is well-done and interesting, the characters are well-drawn.

I read the ebook when it was first released and enjoyed it but listening to this audio version lifted this enjoyable story. The narration was performed by Krys Janae someone I haven't listened to before but will definitely look out for now

I will definitely read or listen to the next book in the Lost Legacies series.

Good Backstory!

I am usually not a fan of the of the prequel books and others the authors like to throw in after a series spec when it could of just been added to a book in the series. I did enjoy this book though. It gave a really good backstory! The way the author creates the story is amazing. The narration is amazing as well. Krys Janae does a great job with all the characters. This is a really good series!
