Description

A new DFZ series from the author of Nice Dragons Finish Last and Minimum Wage Magic!

In the world’s most magical metropolis where spirits run noodle shops and cash-strapped dragons stage photo-ops for tourists, people still think fairies are nothing but stories, and that’s exactly how the fairies like it. It’s a lot easier to feast on humanity’s dreams when no one believes you exist. But while this arrangement works splendidly for most fair folk, Lola isn’t one of the lucky ones.

She’s a changeling, a fairy monster made just human enough to dupe unsuspecting parents while fairies steal their real child. The magic that sustains her was never meant to last past the initial theft, leaving Lola without a future. But thanks to Victor Conrath, a very powerful—and very illegal—blood mage, she was given the means to cheat death.

For a price.

Now the only changeling ever to make it to adulthood, Lola has served the blood mage faithfully, if reluctantly, for 20 years. Her unique ability to slip through wards and change her shape to look like anyone has helped make Victor a legend in the DFZ’s illegal-magic underground. It’s not a great life, but at least the work is stable, until her master vanishes without a trace.

With only a handful left of the pills that keep her human, Lola must find Victor before she turns back into the fairy monster she was always meant to be. But with a whole SWAT team of federal paladins hunting her as a blood-mage accomplice, an urban legend on a silent black motorcycle who won’t leave her alone, and a mysterious fairy king with the power to make the entire city dream, Lola’s chances of getting out of this alive are as slender as a silver thread.

Good Story, Rough Audio Editing

The story itself is great, especially if you liked the author's previous books. But the audio was really rough. At times the voice actor's reading had odd pauses and a strange cadence. At least once every 15 mins the audio levels would drop, fade, spike. Sometimes sounding like listening through a tube. Really took away from the story.

Love returning to the DFZ but a bit of a downer

I have enjoyed all of the DFZ series, and I did like returning to it. But this felt like one very long anxiety attack honestly. I don’t like hopelessness and until nearly the very end Lola was an anxious hopeless mess. And often obliviously stupid. I am still going to listen to the next novel because it can only go up from here, but I was disappointed and I’m glad it’s over. I also found the narrator challenging to listen to. She maybe spoke too quickly, but even trying to slow it down a bit didn’t help. There was just a lack of enunciation and I often found myself straining to pick up every word. That is pretty unusual for me and I listen to a lot of audiobooks. I’m hopeful the next instalment will be better.
