Publisher's summary
Welcome to Half Death Academy. That's what they call my new school - because only half the students survive.
Rule number one: Keep your head down and don't mess with the four gorgeous demigods who rule the school.
Rule number two: When the demigods try to kill you, lie down and die.
Too bad I never was very good at following the rules. And when my forbidden power awakens, I'll make them regret they tried to make me their bitch.
Magic Trials is the first book in the Half-Blood Academy series with a badass heroine, four deadly, striking demigods, heart-pounding action blended with super steamy love scenes, and great romance. For fans of Shadowspell Academy.
Excerpt
For a long moment, we didn't speak as he pounded into me relentlessly and I plunged from the tip to the hilt of him with equally bruising force.
"My woman," he murmured, lust changing him, making him an erotic god. "You were made for me to find and pleasure in this pure ecstasy of my dreams."
"This is actually my dream", I said between breathless moans.
He ignored my correction and commanded. "Come to me in my dreams every night, lamb, and let me have you in every way until dawn."

When firefighter Rory lays eyes on fire-watcher Edith, he instantly knows she’s the one. His fated mate. Now, to win her heart, he just has to protect her from: 1. A raging wildfire (actually, she’s already got that covered, thanks). 2. The lightning-throwing invisible monster that started it (um, the what?). 3. Killer bunnies (don't even ask). 4. The appalling matchmaking attempts from his crew of misfit shifters (not only is this guy scorching hot, but his dog is adorable too. And...weirdly smart?). 5. His own animal need to claim her. Now.

I am a latent wolf shifter. Or so I thought. Then, life as I knew it changed in a flash - or more accurately, an electrocution. I’ve woken up in a strange place, surrounded by strange people who hate me. They’re in the middle of a war, and I look like I belong on the wrong side of it. If that’s not enough to qualify as a really bad day, I now have wings and a strange animal to figure out because it turns out that there’s not a damn latent thing about me.

Despite being raised by shifters, my life was fairly ordinary...until I tried to break up a fight and got zapped with magic. Then, all hell broke loose. The binding spell placed on me as an infant broke and I found out in a painful and rather unpleasant manner that I'm actually a witch. Now, the very people my birth mother tried to hide me from want to use my concealment as an excuse to push an anti-shifter agenda. The only way to keep my adoptive family - and myself - safe is to enroll in the elite Ravencrest Academy and prove I can control my newfound abilities.

My twin brother, Damon, and I grew up in the shadows of the supernatural, trained by our father, a legendary hunter and an Elder in a world you wouldn't believe exists. But now, Dad's gone missing, and we're on a treacherous path to find him. We thought we knew the drill-stake 'em, salt 'em, save the day. That was until we met our newest nightmare: vampires, or so we thought, leaving nothing but skeletons in their wake. Then there's Justice, a vampire fighting his own kind, a guy from some group called the Paranormal Mercenary Corp. Trusting a vampire? Not exactly in our playbook.

The school expelled me, and my parents were distraught, so my aunt offered to pay for one that could help with my "issues". My world turned upside down when I stepped into the exclusive academy. I expected to meet other troubled teens here, but none seem unusual.

My only hope is the Unleashing, a ceremony that unlocks the dormant powers of magical descendants when we turn 18. Since my mom was a lowly psychic, I don’t expect to be blessed with much more than the ability to forecast the weather. But when the sorcerers unlock my magic, all hell breaks loose.

FANTASTIC
This book was AMAZING! I wish book two was out on audio already. The narrator did a good job.
The cliffhanger at the end made me clinch my eyes and shake my head. I wonder what death is going to do when he finds out just who beat his Lamb so badly.

One of my favorite series
This is a reread for me but this is one of my absolute favorite series of all time. I constantly go back to reread or listen to my favorite parts. If you are looking for a why choose, paranormal, academy book look no further.

Good start to this supernatural RH academy series!
I am slowly rotating back in academy audiobooks (there was a rush of them and I mentally was burnt out so I am slowly getting back to them) and I have been really happy so far with Meg's Half-Blood Academy. It makes me reminisce about Percy Jackson's series (but a more adult version haha) that I loved growing up reading. I will say there were a couple things that held me back from giving it a 5 star, but I did enjoy book 1, glad I could continue to listen to the rest of the series because I wanted to know know more after book 1. One thing was some things were repetitive. Some of the internal monologues, or things the guys kept saying (particularly Axel). I think it could have been caught in the writing process and helped smoothed out and I would have given this a 5 stars. But besides that. again a great start to this 5 book series.
In terms of the story I really enjoyed the stubbornness, ferocity, and snarky attitude of Marigold, she stayed true to herself the whole book, putting her coven before herself, then not holding back or backing down from the bullies of the half-blood academy. I did like her banter with the Demi-gods and liked how they slowly realized she wasn't a normal human and that they had feelings for her. I was trying to figure out who her mystery dream man was but that was a great surprise. I really like Axel and was holding back judgement of Zack. But Pigston deserves all the bad things coming to him, after how he continues to treat Marigold. I don't give much of the story away, but Marigold has to go through some trials and proves she is more than what she seems and that she has no clue how to control what is hidden inside her. I think there is bound to be a ton of redemption for the guys in the future books and I am excited to see what Marigold put them through/how she handles it. I also want 1/8 to get her just rewards for being horrible haha.
Narration was good, I like listening to Marnye in past audiobooks. I do think she was over the top too much in some instances and no offense her French accent was tough to listen to when she did dream man. I was hoping this would have been a duet audiobook after seeing Conner listed, but he only got a small portion of the book because of the POVs. I would give the narration 3.5-4 stars.

I don't like the woman voice narrating the men!!!
It does get a little dirty so if u don't like that kind of thing stay away! The reason I gave low stars for performance is bc I cannot stand when the narrator does a man's voice! It sounds like a grouchy old lady or sometimes a relaly old man. It made it so hard to picture the actual characters and the frech dude REALLY through me off. I could barely listen to the book unfortunately. I like the Marigold voice but I just can't deal whenever switches to men. it is sooooooo odd!!! I will say when the man did the French Demi of death it was much better!! Wayyyy more realistic. I didn't care for all the cuss words.

Excellent Story
I have read the entire series. Based on the description I wasn't really interested but decided to give it a chance, so happy I did. They mix up the narrators in the coming books trying to find the right mix, while I am not crazy about the female voice of some of the males it doesn't take away from the excellent story.
The males are totally alpha and you will love them all, and after the first book you may not be to stoked about Paxton, don't give up all hope.
Thanks for another great series Meg!

Half-Blood Academy
Magic Trials (Half-Blood Academy 1) is a academy reverse harem fantasy romance. Magic Trials is the beginning of this new fatasy series and sets the stage for this new world. It provides well detailed world building descriptions and settings. This is a adventurous fantasy realm with demi gods, and opulence of magic and intrigue. Character's of the Harem are introduced and we just get a glimpse of their characteristics. It ends with cliffhanger so you need to listen to the next audio to find out what happens.
Overall, a entertaining listen.
Narrators Marnye Young, Conner Goff performance was entertaining and brought the characters to reality.

I loved this storyline. The male performance was great. The only issue I had was some of the supporting characters voices.

Amazing
I read Magic Trials and loved it so I decided to start using Audible with a book I knew I already loved. I think I love it even more after listening to it. You will not be disappointed with the story or the narrators! Can’t wait for the others in the series to be released!

Overall its a good book
The main character is a bad ass, strong female that doesn't like to take shit from anyone, not even the strong Demi Gods. Even though some of her actions can be seen as stupid sometimes I still enjoyed listening to this book and will definitely get the rest of the series.
