Summary
"The dead can't lie. At least, not to me."
With the dangerous Milus Dei cult collapsed, Gideon Black is trying to get used to his new life as a half-Fae, and the DeathSpeaker - a legendary Other with the ability to compel the dead to speak. But when freshly murdered bodies turn up in New York with ankh-and-sword tattoos identifying them as cult members, Gideon realizes the battle is far from over.
While dealing with a singing dead man and a powerful Seelie noble out for revenge, Gideon discovers that the remaining Milus Dei survivors have skipped town. Their new target: his werewolf friend Sadie's estranged pack in the Appalachian Mountains.
Sadie's younger sister has been abducted, and Gideon and his newfound brother Taeral offer to help get her back. But the rescue mission soon turns deadly as they uncover the cult's true target - and find that Milus Dei is not only far bigger than the New York branch, but also developing a biological weapon to turn their soldiers into unstoppable killing machines, capable of taking down any Other.
And Sadie's blood holds the key to perfecting that weapon.

great story with flawed delivery
the actual story here is awesome. great characters and brilliant worldbuilding.
fantastic balance between tension and darkness, and fun and lightness.
I feel like the author could do with finding a better editor, or maybe just broadening her vocabulary a little. I make this comment from a place of love because, as I said, the story itself I think is great. but it doesn't sound.... smart. like the story is cleverer than the words make it sound. and the narrator is well... pretty awful. random intonation on words. sounds a bit like William Shatner. over the tie emphasis on pointles things, leaves little room to actually put feeling in the places that it's needed. I think I want to give this book (and the series so far) 5* but the nation and the simplistic language and repetitive words holds it back.
TL:DR:
great story worth listening to, if you can accept that it is , I'd not poorly written and narrated, at least mediocre at both.
