Crossroads of Bones

A Katie Bishop Novel, Book 1

By: Luanne Bennett

Narrated by: Whitney Dykhouse

Rule number one: Don’t piss off the dragon - or Sugar.

When Katie Bishop is asked to join an elite Savannah society that guards the city against all the supernatural riffraff that blows into town on a regular basis, she can’t refuse. Especially when the city’s latest threat has targeted her to help it escape from an ancient book it’s been imprisoned in for more than a century. You see, Katie isn’t your average girl - she’s a bit of a beast and owns a tattoo shop at the edge of town. She’s also the only one who can tattoo a magical symbol on the demon’s back that will set it permanently free - and live to tell about it.

Trying to run a business and keep her secrets intact, Katie’s life is complicated enough. The easy thing would be to just apply the damn ink and be done with it, but there’s just one problem - the demon plans to open the crossroads and let all hell break loose. If that happens, the city might as well get used to serving a new master.

With the help of her best friend, Lady Sugar - the queen of Savannah with hoodoo in her blood, and a coven of eclectic witches, they’ll fight to take back their city.

No shrinking violets here. Maybe just a few misfits. Katie Bishop’s clan has plenty of heart and grit, and Sugar will have you rolling!

Typical urban fantasy? Not exactly.

Entrancing

A well thought out and greatly executed story. I couldn’t put it down until I had devoured the last word.

Excellent world building

Author managed to introduce some interesting new concepts on an old refrain which kept it engaging. Narration could be better, she can only really pull off one male voice in a world with multiple male characters and you can hear the strain in her voice. There was a lot of fubbing in the female voices too. Her main character voice is nice.

a refreshing look at urban fantasy

I thoroughly enjoyed a refreshing look at urban fantasy. wonderfully narrated with complex yet fledgling characters in this first offering. I hope to grow with them as the series continues.

Intriguing, great characters and not predictable!

I was pulled in to interesting characters and an interesting story. Definitely recommend this audio book. Hoping there is a book 2.

Kinda boring

This book had a lot of nonsense and not enough action. I understand doing everyday things gives the book a story but I don’t want to hear about every little detail of how she goes about her day. Because of this it made the story extremely boring and long. I ended up skipping CHAPTERS and still not missing anything. The narrator was good which is great. Otherwise I would have returned the book after chapter 2.
