À propos de cet audio
Alex Verus is part of a world hidden in plain sight, running a magic shop in London. And while Alex's own powers aren't as showy as some mages, he does have the advantage of foreseeing the possible future-allowing him to pull off operations that have a million-to-one-chance of success.
But when Alex is approached by multiple factions to crack open a relic from a long-ago mage war, he knows that whatever's inside must be beyond powerful. And thanks to his abilities, Alex can predict that by taking the job, his odds of survival are about to go from slim to none…

Histoire
Atticus O’Sullivan, last of the Druids, lives peacefully in Arizona, running an occult bookshop and shape-shifting in his spare time to hunt with his Irish wolfhound. His neighbors and customers think that this handsome, tattooed Irish dude is about twenty-one years old - when in actuality, he’s twenty-one centuries old. Not to mention: He draws his power from the earth, possesses a sharp wit, and wields an even sharper magical sword known as Fragarach, the Answerer. Unfortunately, a very angry Celtic god wants that sword, and he’s hounded Atticus for centuries....

Histoire
Stephen Oakwood is a young man on the edge of this hidden world. He has talent and potential, but turning that potential into magical power takes money, opportunity, and training. All Stephen has is a minimum wage job and a cat. But when a chance encounter with a member of House Ashford gets him noticed by the wrong people, Stephen is thrown in the deep end. For centuries, the vast corporations and aristocratic Houses of the magical world have grown impossibly rich and influential by hoarding their knowledge.

Histoire
When he was 19, James Stark was considered to be one of the greatest natural magicians, a reputation that got him demon-snatched and sent downtown - to Hell - where he survived as a gladiator, a sideshow freak entertaining Satan's fallen angels. That was 11 years ago. Now, the hitman who goes only by Stark has escaped and is back in L.A. Armed with a fortune-telling coin, a black bone knife, and an infernal key, Stark is determined to destroy the magic circle.

The downside to faking your own death is that people tend to get upset when they find out they’ve been had. In Atticus O’Sullivan’s case, they’re upset enough to come after him to make sure he dies for real this time. Yet he can’t remain in hiding anymore: He has to bind his apprentice, Granuaile, to the earth so that she can become the first new Druid in centuries.

Histoire
Necromancer is such an ugly word, but it's a title Eric Carter is stuck with. He sees ghosts, talks to the dead. He's turned it into a lucrative career, putting troublesome spirits to rest, sometimes taking on even more dangerous things. For a fee, of course. When he left LA 15 years ago, he thought he'd never go back. Too many bad memories. Too many people trying to kill him.

The story is interesting. The narration was excellent. The main character, Alex Verus, a magician with foresight, is pretty self confident. He thinks pretty highly of himself and his gift. I found this irritating. He is vested with the responsibility of finding a powerful, dangerous object.

Really strong start, but tries too hard at the end
Overall worth listening to. It's good, and could be great, but it tries too hard at the end. It gets a bit over the top like a mission impossible sequel. Characters make inconsistent choices to advance tension/plot...

First in the Alex Verus Series
This suffers a bit by the awkwardness of trying to introduce a world and characters that we expect to encounter again. Perhaps that is something that's true of all “first in the series” tales. Balancing that awkwardness is the skill displayed in narrator Gildart Jackson’s performance. He is a pleasure to listen to, no matter what the genre. It's worth carrying on with Book Two.

Magical and Fun
FATED is a ton of fun. It's a book that has been on my TBR for so long that I almost forgot about it didn't know if I'd have time to try it. So I'm glad that I did. FATED is perfect for readers who want an exciting, urban fantasy adventure with a new hero and an immersive setting.
The story follows Alex Verus, a mage with a complex past, as he and his friend Luna come across a valuable object that every mage in London wants to possess. What follows is a series of adventures as Alex and Luna racce to discover what the strange device can do, and stay alive in the process.
It was very easy for me to connect with Alex. He's kind, clever, and doesn't have the arrogance that some UF leads can have. He really did feel like a normal person with justifiable motives and logical actions. The side characters were fun and complimentary to Alex, though I hope to see Luna become more confident in future books.
The world building is immersive and easy to follow, the action and pacing are quick, and the book is full of heart and humor. I truly enjoyed the imagination put into this story and am eager to read through the rest of the series. This is the perfect book to enjoy over a weekend or to binge over the summer. Highly recommended!
