For adult eyes/ears at some points but done in a way which highlights the strength of the character's relationships. A wide mix of characters but you get attached to all of them and hope for things to turn out for the best. There were parts I wish it went into a little more background about some of the magic and magic users (I don't think that is too spoilery since you likely read the first one and know there's magic in the book).

I think Gordo and Mark are my favorite pairing in the Green Creek series. Truly, a love story for the ages. They fall in love as youngsters, grow apart through circumstance, and come together again as bitter, reluctant old men. I love how the story is told from Gordo’s point of view. I love the spooky, ethereal use of the Raven, flapping it’s wings whenever his magic starts to gain control. And Mark. Mark, Mark, Mark, is so loveable, so hunky, and you can really feel how emotional, how deep his love for Gordo has been, how much sorrow he carries for choosing his pack over his mate. It’s my second time reading this book, and I was WRECKED when Mark came back for Gordo, only to get his heart broken, and be given back his wolf. Ow! 

But the story, the sorrow of their past, and the trauma they’ve been through, and the race-against-the-clock element of Mark getting infected by the mysterious Omega disease. It’s just so well done. I didn’t know how to feel, even though I was rooting for them to find a way to save him. 

As always, I love these wolves with all my heart, but Gordo is one hell of a witch, and this story shines so bright from his narrative. An excellent story, even the second time around. I loved every minute of it.

Was it as good as wolfsong? No
Did I still devour it in 2 days? Yes

This is the second book in the Green Creek series and it follows Gordo and Marks story - although all the familiar characters in the Bennet pack are present. I really loved how this book started at about the halfway point of wolfsong
right around the time when Joe, Carter, Kelly, and Gordo leave following Thomas' death. It is a pretty pivotal moment in the story and it was really interesting to read other characteries perspectives


The book was great, character development was great, plot was great, just overall - really great.

Gimme all the emotionally stunted gay werewolves please!!

OH MY GOD!!!!!😲😲😲😲 

The “mystical moon magic” adventures continue in this second book of the Green Creek series.

There’s not a whole lot more I can say about this book. It was just as perfect at the first book. Gordo was one on my favourite characters in Wolfsong so it made me incredibly happy that his and Mark’s story got told.

It’s a good thing I work in an office by myself most days because I was gasping as the action unfolded, ready to kick anyone who approached me without warning. 

And once again, Kirt Graves did a phenomenal job with the voices for our cast of characters. When he went for a distinct souther accent for Gordo in the first book I was unsure whether he was going to keep it up for this 20hr sequel. And he did. Well done, sir!

Well I already purchased the next book before I even finished writing this review. I’m officially a Green Creek crack addict: I NEED MORE!!!
