About this listen

In a world where magic is real and evil walks amongst humanity, a young sorcerer is beset by enemies, both old and new.

Angelus Salvatore is the only necromancer in all of Boston, and his name is whispered warily by the undead and fellow sorcerers alike. He and his brother Isaac are the lone survivors of an attack by an army of the undead, in which Angel used a spell so powerful it forever marked his place in history. Now, years later, Angel struggles to balance his career as a teacher of the higher magical arts, his role as big brother, and a tenuous relationship with an Elder vampire from the local clan. When his brother's boyfriend is used as a pawn in a mysterious plot to draw Angel out, Angel is once again drawn back into the old hostilities that fueled the Blood Wars and led to his family's death.

Leaning on others for help is something Angel cannot do, and while he searches for clues as to who may be targeting him and his brother, Angel finds his heart steadily growing occupied with Simeon, Elder and vampire. Dealing with death magic and vampires on a daily basis may leave Angel jaded when it comes to life and staying that way, but the more time he spends fending off the ancient vampire's attention and affections, the more he realizes he wants to give in.

Can Angel find out who wants him dead, and keep his heart safe in the process? How can he fall for a vampire, when his whole family was torn apart by an army of the undead? Death stalks the streets of Boston's historic Beacon Hill...and there is no one more suited to battle against death than a necromancer.

Great start to this series!

I don't know why I waited so long to read this book because it was awesome! I absolutely adored Angel and Simeon. Their relationship was all kinds of sweet and fluffy and cute against a background of vampires, dead bodies, and family issues. I listened to this on audio and it was fantastic! (I mean, I listened to an 8-hour audiobook in only 3 days, which is virtually unheard of for me since I have almost no time to listen to audio.) Very much looking forward to listening to the rest of the series! 4.5 stars rounded up to 5.

My kind of book!

Magic, hot vampires, murder, mystery, hot and steamy! And I can't forget Joel Leslie! Love it all! The only thing is the exposition, that I feel can slow down a scene. But I still enjoyed it.

in love with this story so far

I'm not even done the book yet but I wanted to write a review. IT IS SO FREAKING GOOD. I have been listening late Into the night and all day at work. I wish the book was longer.

Joel Lesile is a fantastic narrator and his characters voices are so distinguishable and well done. He nails the irish accent for Simeon and all the others too. I actually had just finished a different series with Joel as the narrator called the Arden St Ives series. (It is another steamy m/m romance which he does another bang on job.) I bought this book without realizing he was the narrator at first and I can't believe it's the same actor from the other series!!

The book itself is great right off the bat. Hooking you in with the interesting characters and world development. Five stars for everything. Give it a try if you like vampires, steamy sex, and an action packed story!
