About this listen

All Dag Gates wants is a place to call home. (And to practice magic freely.)

All Stefan Bjorne wants is peace in his adoptive country. (And less paperwork.)

All Mikkel Vinters wants is both of them. (No, really, he could do wedding bells.)

So why, pray tell, is half the magical community set on denying them all their wishes?

I enjoyed this book, it held my interest from start to finish. The characters are interesting and very likeable and the story itself has enough to hold the readers interest all the way through. The one big negative is the narration, given that two of the three main characters are Scandinavian and none of the narrators managed to get within a thousand miles of a decent (or believable) accent, I can only give an overall four stars .

an interesting story

enjoyable story and likeable characters with all the standard aj Sherwood characteristics. If you like Bel etc then you will like these three main characters. The narration is not good, while Dag is okay and that narrator okay, the others do random accents not only for their own characters but for side characters. Guards sound like muppet characters and at one point I swear one of Mikkel's business partners has a touch of Ludo from the Labyrinth.

liked the world building

Loved the characters, would have liked a more satisfactory/bigger squish of the villains. Enjoyed the three narrators’ performances, they were v good.

If you enjoyed this, I think the author’s Mage’s Guide to Human Familiars has the slight edge on this - also 3 men and magic :)

Enjoyable story

This was a great listen. The story was engaging with plot that kept me interested. The characters were intriguing with backstories that added depth. I look forward to the rest of the series!

Interesting story, lovable characters and I love it when the baddie gets theirs!

I normally love all AJ Sherwood’s books especially the audios, but I think the 3 narrators through me off. I’ve listened to books with 3 narrators before and it’s been fine, but I couldn’t into these 3 together, voices jarred me to much out of the rhythm of the book. Waiting for the next book and I hope I can get back in my AJ Sherwood flow.

Hhhhmmmm
