This book was meant to be an audio book! It was so well formatted for it! I was hanging on to every word the narrators read and it was such an intense story. Absolutely loved it!!

Killer start to a series, I absolutely cannot wait to read the next book! I’ve been looking for a good secret society/paranormal underground story for a while now and this hit the spot perfectly.

Really strong sequel to the first book! The last 40% had me GAGGED!! The world and character building is developed further in this book in a way that is done really well without any heavy info dumping. Plus it’s all paced so incredibly well. Can’t wait to read the third and final installment!!
