Publisher's summary

I'm Cisco Suarez and this is the end of the line.

I've been beaten, shackled, killed once or twice, but hey, who's counting? I put my foot down at being lit up like a candle at my daughter's tenth birthday party. Some things you take personal.

Revenge won't be easy. The Miami voodoo underground turned on me. An uppity wizard cartel is creeping into my business. If that's not enough, I keep seeing the same damn black cat everywhere I go. Talk about crummy luck.

None of it matters. I've got laser focus on my archenemy, a jinn with a knack for fire. News flash: I'm done being burned. Connor Hatch is going down for good, even if I have to drag him to hell myself.

Nice book

I liked the overall storyline, characters, world building, and plot. Plenty of action as the lead character seeks out revenge against an enemy of old. If you have a queasy stomach, this book may not be for you. My only dislike is the narrator's style, voice inflection, and gravelly voice. He did a good job narrating but his voice was a constant distraction for me.

cat and mouse in a dumpster

this book of the story brings in new elements different planes and existences. well sometimes hard to follow, we still an amazing story a cat and mouse the whole way through and every second that seemed to finally slowed down enough for you to catch your breath sped right back up on the trailer corner. or in his case in a trash pile somewhere

Please no the end of the line

I am coming a little late to Cisco Suarez party as it seems I am jumping in at book five but it is ok as I figured things out pretty fast. Especially when someone, Connor Hatch, try's to kill you at your daughter birthday party, yeah that kind of warrants a retaliation. Humm, and the black is there too.

Domino Finn has a great series and book on his hands, it is full of action, suspense, and so many twists and turns you will never know what is coming next, and with narrator Neil Hellegers lending his voice to all the characters to make the book into a story told to people in that wonderful way of making people feel as though they are a part of the story themselves just makes it a even better experience.


Oh and Cisco I really hope it is not the end of the line, please I'm late but I do want more.

best of the series so far

this was the best book of the series so far in my opinion. I love this series.

updated

I was gifted this ARC from the author for a honest and unbiased review. I found this book very entertaining. The reference to the occult was a masterpiece of writing skill. The various plots presented were very well thought out and had me believing that it was not only possible, but real. I hope that there will be more in this series in the future.

Great

Domino does it again, great writing and narration. Unfortunately theres no more stories for Cisco so will just see what Domino's other awesome tales he has to offer..

Excellent......just right finish to a saga!

I'll admit I don't like the last books ending but this one was awesome. I wish our MC could have gained and kept new powers but I like it as it is.

Dark urban fantasy at its best!

NO SPOILERS HERE. There is a lot going on in this 5th book of the series but the publisher’s summary does a nice job of providing the highlights so I won’t even attempt to offer a synopsis. This is one of the most imaginative and compelling series to come along in a long while. It has so many interesting features to draw the reader in. You know you are in for a great story when the “hero” is a snarky necromancer who, though now alive, used to be a zombie hitman. In this book, our main character, Cisco Suarez, the aforementioned snarky necromancer, encounters zombies, wraiths, Haitian necromancers, elementals, dragons, jinn and more in his action-packed, never-a-dull-moment mission to take down his archnemesis, Connor Hatch. His battle takes him to other realms including the Aether and the Underworld. The reader is treated to some fascinating Taíno mythology. Friendships are tested, allies are imperiled, and danger lurks around every corner.

I have loved each story in this series and this one was no exception. This author always delivers more than expected, more than hoped for, and way more than my imagination could have ever conjured. I also thoroughly enjoy the outstanding narration provided by Neil Hellegers in the audiobooks of this series. Each character is given a unique voice well-suited to the individual and the overall pace and tone are always perfectly coordinated with the events of the narrative.

If you enjoy dark urban fantasy, this is definitely a series worth your time. As always, I am eagerly anticipating Cisco’s next adventure.

I was provided with a copy of the audiobook by the author and I am voluntarily offering my honest and unbiased review.

Great series

I really liked this series. It was different and it has a lot of flair. I started this series with the ebooks and only listened to this one on audible. The narration was good not great.

Always a great listen

Any additional comments?

Cisco never fails to be a great listen. He manages to get himself into the worst scenarios while trying to do good. This book is full of fire and action as well as ruthless villains to spice it up. You aren't paranoid if they're really all out to get you should be the title. Cisco had to battle or at least scrape by everyone. Thrill ride of an adventure that I recommend. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.
