Shoot the Messenger

The Messenger Chronicles, Book 1

De: Pippa DaCosta

Narrado por: Annie Ellicott, Jeff Hays

A new space fantasy series where the guys are hot, the perils are many, and one rebel messenger holds the key to the survival of the human race. Lies aren’t her only weapons against the fae...

In the Halow system, one of Earth’s three sister star systems, tek and magic - humans and fae - are at war. Kesh Lasota is a ghost in the machine. Invisible to tek, she’s hired by the criminal underworld to carry illegal messages through the Halow system. But when one of those messages kills its recipient, Kesh finds herself on the run with a bounty on her head and a quick-witted marshal on her tail. Proving her innocence should be straightforward. Until a warfae steals the evidence she needs.

The fae haven’t been seen in Halow in over a thousand years. And this one - a brutally efficient killer able to wield tek - should not exist. But neither should Kesh. As Kesh’s carefully crafted lie of a life crumbles around her, she knows being invisible is no longer an option. To hunt the warfae, to stop him from destroying a thousand-year fragile peace, she must resurrect the horrors of her past. Kesh Lasota was a ghost. Now she’s back, and there’s only one thing she knows for certain: nobody shoots the messenger and gets away with it.

IMPORTANT: The Messenger series is a slow burn reverse harem. The girl doesn’t choose “one guy.” The harem elements develop during the series.

Such and intricate

This was such an interesting story! The character development was intricate that all you could do was continue listening!

Amazing performance

What more can I ask for: Soundbooth Theater reading Pippa Dacosta books :) The characters are interesting & the story keeps me guessing as to what’s next. I’m curious as to who Talen really is!

I don’t know why but it’s like the book just changes half way through

Don’t get me wrong the book isn’t bad it’s just about half way through it’s like someone else started writing where it left off and all the things that makes Mc kick ass just isn’t there anymore. It’s not a bad book just dont like how mc turns out

Wonderful performances for a great sci-fi series

I personally did not have any audio problems like the other reviewer. Definitely worth the credit!

Not sure why this was a reverse harem

I read books 1-5. The story was exciting and action packed and I liked the pace of the book. I like the FMC she was strong and resilient. My biggest complaint is why the author decided to make this a reverse harem. It wasnt really, there were like two spicy scenes out of all 5 books and they werent well written and dialogue was cheesy. All spice scenes were with one partner even though FM had several love interests. It totally fell short for me, and honestly although I loved the story it was the whole reason I started the series was to read a good spicy why choose. Clearly the author had issues with description and writing sex scenes so not sure why they decided on this choice, they just should have had this be a fun sci fi non fiction book.
