About this listen

I'm not your average girl.

My best friend is my switchblade. My favorite hobby is using it on the cruel, the abusive, and anyone who gets on my bad side. I'm a convicted murderer with a chip on my shoulder and a dangerous lack of restraint.

And then there's Zak.

His rap sheet makes mine look tame. The bounty on his head is worth more money than I'll ever make, and the deadly fae that shadow his every step wield more power than I'll ever know.

He's the Crystal Druid, and his first mistake was setting foot on my turf. His second was saving my life.

And his final mistake will be failing to realize that however dark, however ruthless, however broken he is...I'm worse.

I love all things Anne Marie. I didn’t like Saber as much as her other characters. She was well written, I just didn’t like her as a person. She’s defensive and angry and traumatised at the start, but she doesn’t really grow much as a person in this story. She’s an arsehole and a psychopath, and pretty narcissistic, even if she is kind to animals. But, sequels are imminent and perhaps she’s just a slow burn character who’s going to take a while to grow into someone I’d want to be friends with. Or an antihero I’m going to like. (You can be a rogue as long as you’re a lovable rogue.) Or maybe she won’t. She’s like that kid who would beat you up in highschool because their parents were on drugs and they had ADHD and they couldn’t regulate their emotions. All the teachers make excuses for them because they’ve got a tough life, but at the end of the day, they still pushed me over and stole my lunch money and now I’m hungry and my knees hurt, so they don’t get any sympathy from me. I don’t care how horrible their life is, because they’re still a jerk and they can just SUCK it! I like her friends though, and she can’t be all bad if she has so many people who are loyal to her, and I can see that she’s TRYING to be better (admittedly in a half arsed way) so at this stage I’m willing to put up with her so I can hang out with her friends. Perhaps over time she’ll let her guard down a bit and start to actually care about other people, instead of just pretending, and perhaps she’ll stop being such a narcissist and making everything about herself (oh no, my mentor just died, why doesn’t everyone realise that I’m the real victim here?). When she can learn to actually care about people, then I’ll start to really care about her. Give me a reason to forgive her bad behaviour and I’ll be hooked.

Aaaaargh! I need a sequel immediately!!!

I just finished the second book in the warped series and honestly I didn’t even finish it. I love Annette Marie but that series was so lack lustre I almost gave her away. But this book was fantastic! It’s more of the tail of Sabre Rose than the druids but all the same it held my interest and really left me wanting more. Would highly recommend

Loved it!

Great Story. Well told and just enough crossover into the Guild Codex universe to tease.
Zak & Sabre are awesome together.
Swamp Monsters, Fire-breathing Familiars & Lalakai
With Switchblades, Golden Whips and a little Tandem Bareback Riding, this story is next level.
Narration and production were flawless as expected.
Enjoy!!👍

Just Superb

Annette has done it again!! It’s hard to believe this different side of Zak but I love it, and what an amazing female lead. Strong and venerable, I love her and can’t wait for the twists and turns this series’s going to have.

Amazing

This is a much darker story than the others in the Guild Codex series. Both MC's have anger and violence in their past and present. It is great to continue on with Zac's story though. The narrator does her usual fantastic performance.

A much darker continuation of the Guild Codex

As a fan of all the other series's in the Guild Codex world, I started listening to this without reading the blurb, so was surprised this is told from the perspective of Sabre & not Zak. Sabre is a take no 'sheet' kinda of girl & love that she takes care of animals. I can't wait to get to know the back story of Zak more. The end left me busting for the next instalment.

I love how big this world is getting.

Another winner from Annette Marrie, a fast paced magik filled story. Saber and Zac are both fantastic characters. Chris is brilliant as always in her narrative.

I struggle to finished. Main character, Saber, is all hot air with no substance. Keep wishing the story will do her more justice by hinting she is something more but nope, throughout just keep repeating how dangerous she is but every turn she is the weakest. She is so full of self pity and keeps making stupid decisions. By stroke of luck she manage to survive. I find her rather irritating and would not bother to find out what happens to her next.

Great narration but unlikeable character
