Shadows of the Lost

Guild of the Night, Book 1

By: Maxym M. Martineau

Narrated by: Mark Sanderlin, Nick Mondelli, Jess Nahikian, Jay Alder

As a member of the Charmers Council, Gaige is able to form lasting bonds with the magical beasts of his world. At least, he used to be a Charmer...until he died and was brought back as one of the immortal assassins of Cruor. Now he's far more dangerous...and something beyond the shadows lies in wait, hungry to claim him for its own.

As leader of the assassins, all Kost can do is watch as Gaige struggles with his new life day by day. He wants nothing more than to ease Gaige's suffering—yet how can he when they both know he's the one responsible? There is nothing left but bitter memories and hopeless longing between them. Yet when Gaige is lost to the shadow realm, Kost is the only one with any chance of bringing him back—if only they can learn to trust (and perhaps love) each other again.

Intense, compelling, and impossible to put down, Shadows of the Lost is perfect for listeners looking for epic New Adult fantasy series with a bit of spice.

good but confusing

This is actually a spinoff on another series by the same author. There was a lot of stuff that seemed to be assumed the reader would already know and wasn't explained and it made a lot of the reading experience confusing. It almost felt like it needed to be marketed as book 4 to the other trilogy.

great storyline

I really enjoyed this audiobook both because of the great storyline and the excellent way this book was read.
