Hex Kittens 2

An Urban Fantasy Episodic

Narrated by: Amber Hartt, Jonathan Waters

The mountain town of Libusen, West Virginia looks like a cuckoo clock and smells like death. Nick and Tiffany drove straight into it anyway.

Monster hunters for hire, fueled by Waffle House and each other, they're used to low-level threats and manageable chaos. Their mysterious benefactor Anastasia had other plans. Libusen has a problem: people are vanishing without a trace, leaving nothing behind but the sound of gnawing teeth.

The locals have protection — or they did. Moira Orchard is a Canadian tattoo artist with no visible ink and a guilty conscience. She's been etching protective sigils into the town's residents for months. Something in those mountains found her magic, learned its frequency, and turned it into a dinner bell. Now the people she marked are the ones disappearing.

Nick and Tiffany have faced dark things before. Whatever is hunting Libusen is something else entirely — and it brought friends.

Hex Kittens 2 is an urban fantasy monster-hunting adventure featuring sigil-based tattoo magic, Southern Gothic atmosphere, a trio of morally-complicated protagonists, and horror-edged humor that doesn't flinch. Part of the Fateforged universe — but fully accessible as a standalone listen, no homework required.

Perfect for fans of urban fantasy monster hunting, paranormal adventure with dark humor, and magic systems built into skin.
