The Inheritance

The Breach Wars, Book 1

By: Ilona Andrews

Narrated by: Hillary Huber, James Konicek

We are at war. The interdimensional invasion brought us unimaginable suffering, but it also awoke talents slumbering deep within us, a means to repel and destroy our enemy. Every day new gates open, leading to breaches filled with monsters and valuable resources. If you are a Talent, your country needs you. The world needs you. Be the hero you were born to be.

Adaline is a Talent. Ten years ago, she had a happy marriage and a job she loved. The invasion shattered both. Now she works for the government, searching the breaches for magic metals and medicine to help Earth repel an interdimensional enemy. Two kids, one cat, bills, benefits, mortgage and school tuition...Risking her life became routine.

She had gone into the dimensional gates hundreds of times. She was always well protected. This time everything goes wrong. Now Ada is trapped in the labyrinth of alien caves unlike any other. Her only companion is a scared German Shepherd named Bear. Together they must uncover the breach's secrets and escape, because Ada promised her children that she will come home.

The future of humanity depends on it.

Great Book!!

The story is amazing, I heard the book in 5 days. I enjoyes the story, so much action and the human and sentimental component was well develop!!! I love it!!! can't wait for the second book!!

Unique and fun storyline

This book was good from start to finish. I will definitely be looking forward to the next book and hope there are several more to follow.

New world, connected to Inn series?

Both narrators were excellent. The world and magical set up were clear. I like the connection to Sweep of the Inn series. Overall length seemed short, but I’m looking forward to sequel.

An adult adventure

it was over to soon. I am looking forward to the next book. most enjoyable for an adult women choices and responsibilities.

Amazing

Another smash hit from Ilona Andrews! The male narrator was especially excellent, and although I wasn’t sure about the female narrator in the beginning, I came to realize that she really fit the role well. My only complaint is that the book hangover is so strong and we don’t even have an estimated release date for the sequel yet.
