Echo Fort

Sins of the Zodiac, Book 2

By: Caroline Peckham, Susanne Valenti

Narrated by: Bridget Bordeaux, Jake Bordeaux

The sky is burning. The Reapers are keeping secrets. Vampires roam the wastes.

And I’m headed down a path of destruction which can only end in death.

I’m a soul cast adrift on a tide of grief and lies. A clock ticking down the moments to my inevitable destruction, and all I can do is race towards it.

The nations are caught in this endless battle for supremacy and it’s hard to see myself as anything other than a pawn in the twisted games I’m helpless to control.

The Waning Lands are screaming, soaked in blood for so long that even the rivers run red with it. But those screams are whispering riddles that only some of us can hear, begging us to see the signs and listen to the meaning beneath the words we chant so obediently.

What if there is something more to this war? What if winning isn’t what actually matters? What if our magic isn’t the thing that truly divides us? My heart is hardened to the wants of the world and all who occupy it, yet still I hear them call my name. Perhaps it’s time I started listening and found out why the stars have set us this fate. Or if not the stars, then who? Something is rotting at the heart of our lands. So now I have a choice to make. Will I seek out the decay and work to destroy it? Or will I join it in its destruction of this world in vengeance for all the suffering it has offered me?

I’m starting to want things I shouldn’t want. Desire a man I should hate. Care for a warrior I should only wish to harm. The point is, I’m beginning to feel like more than just another pawn in this endless game. But if I want to be the one who rolls the dice then I’m going to have to pay the price of playing for real.

I only wanted to claim revenge for what I’d lost.

Maybe Destiny isn’t done with me yet.

**Book 2 in the series will leave you cursing the stars and perhaps the authors too. You'll be left hoarse from screaming profanities and desperate for more of the morally grey Fae who lurk between the pages despite all they’ve done to your poor heart...**

This series keeps getting better!

Well, it’s official. I loved this book more than the first one. There were more POV chapters in Echo Fort, both from old and new characters. Vesper continues to be my favorite, but I love Everest too!! And the absolute angst between them and the men I’m assuming they’re supposed to end up with is *chef’s kiss*. Bridget and Jake are forever favorite narrators of mine. They always give an outstanding performance.

so good!

I need more! I love that we are experiencing another side of Solaria; there are elements that are familiar in context of ZA but known to this cast of characters differently or not at all. to say that I am riveted is an understatement!! I can't wait for the next part!

Great performances and voices

The book itself is really good you never now what's coming, unpredictable, great pace, well writing, entertaining

The Twisted Sisters Struck Again

They did it! They created a story a world a love for characters that will leave you wanting more. Needing more having to have more! This book is truly a work of art. Enemies to maybe lovers. Unlikely friendships and an undertone of the bleakest darkness you can feel.

Loved this

I loved every moment of book 2 and can’t wait for book 3. The characters introduced in book 1 were developed, some questions answered, others remain.
