Resumen del Editor
The DFZ, the metropolis formerly known as Detroit, is the world’s most magical city with a population of nine million and zero public safety laws. That’s a lot of mages, cybernetically enhanced chrome heads, and mythical beasties who die, get into debt, and otherwise fail to pay their rent. When they can’t pay their bills, their stuff gets sold to the highest bidder to cover the tab.
That’s when they call me. My name is Opal Yong-ae, and I’m a Cleaner: a freelance mage with an art history degree who’s employed by the DFZ to sort through the mountains of magical junk people leave behind. It’s not a pretty job, or a safe one - there’s a reason I wear bite-proof gloves - but when you’re deep in debt in a lawless city where gods are real, dragons are traffic hazards, and buildings move around on their own, you don’t get to be picky about where your money comes from. You just have to make it work, even when the only thing of value in your latest repossessed apartment is the dead body of the mage who used to live there.
Author’s note: This is the first in a new series set in the same universe as my Heartstrikers books, but you don’t need to have heard those stories to enjoy this one. Minimum Wage Magic was written to stand by itself, so if you haven’t listened to the others, don’t worry! I wrote this book with you in mind. Thank you so much for listening!
Featured Article: The Best Women Narrators to Listen to Right Now
One of the biggest questions listeners have when it comes to approaching a new audiobook is whether or not they'll enjoy the narration style. This is understandable, as audiobooks are at least a few hours long (with many clocking in at 20 hours long—or more!), and sticking with one person's voice for that time period can feel like a big commitment. We rounded up some of the best female narrators with a robust list of audiobooks under their belts.

Historia
Raylene Pendle (AKA Cheshire Red), a vampire and world-renowned thief, doesn’t usually hang with her own kind. She’s too busy stealing priceless art and rare jewels. But when the infuriatingly charming Ian Stott asks for help, Raylene finds him impossible to resist - even though Ian doesn’t want precious artifacts. He wants her to retrieve missing government files: documents that deal with the secret biological experiments that left Ian blind. What Raylene doesn’t bargain for is a case that takes her from the frozen outskirts of Minneapolis to the mean streets of Atlanta.

Historia
Kristi Charish's The Voodoo Killings introduces Kincaid Strange, not your average voodoo practitioner.... For starters, she's only 27. Then there's the fact that she lives in rain-soaked Seattle, which is not exactly Haiti. And she's broke. With raising zombies outlawed throughout the continental USA, Kincaid has to eke out a living running séances for university students with more money than brains who are desperate for guitar lessons with the ghost of a Seattle grunge rocker - who happens to be Kincaid's on-again, off-again roommate.

The Price family has spent generations studying the monsters of the world, working to protect them from humanity - and humanity from them. Enter Verity Price. Despite being trained from birth as a cryptozoologist, she'd rather dance a tango than tangle with a demon, and is spending a year in Manhattan while she pursues her career in professional ballroom dance. Sounds pretty simple, right?

Historia
If you've never read a Repairman Jack novel, this is the place to begin. It's 1990. A twenty-one-year-old named Jack has dropped out of college, leaving his old life behind to build a new one in New York City. Manhattan's rough edges are jagged enough to shred any unwary newcomer, but perhaps not one who is determined to stay off the grid, at any cost, in the busiest metropolis on earth. And to do so, he'll have to take jobs of a less than legal nature.

John Wayne Cleaver is dangerous, and he knows it. He's obsessed with serial killers, but really doesn't want to become one. So for his own sake, and the safety of those around him, he lives by rigid rules he's written for himself, practicing normal life as if it were a private religion that could save him from damnation. Dead bodies are normal to John. They don't demand or expect the empathy he's unable to offer. Perhaps that's what gives him the objectivity to recognize that there's something different about the body the police have just found behind the Wash-n-Dry Laundromat - and to appreciate what that difference means.

Hungry darkness, haunted guns, tunnels that move like snakes—the crystal mines of Medicine Rocks, Montana, are a place only the bravest and greediest dare. Discovered in 1866, the miraculous rock known as crystal quickly rose to become the most expensive substance on the planet, driving thousands to break the treaties and invade the sacred buffalo lands of the Sioux. But mining crystal risks more than an arrow in the chest. The beautiful rock has a voice of its own. A voice that twists minds and calls unnatural powers. A voice that turns men into monsters.

Historia
Hungry darkness, haunted guns, tunnels that move like snakes—the crystal mines of Medicine Rocks, Montana, are a place only the bravest and greediest dare. Discovered in 1866, the miraculous rock known as crystal quickly rose to become the most expensive substance on the planet, driving thousands to break the treaties and invade the sacred buffalo lands of the Sioux. But mining crystal risks more than an arrow in the chest. The beautiful rock has a voice of its own. A voice that twists minds and calls unnatural powers. A voice that turns men into monsters.

It's hard enough for Alastair Stone to keep his two lives - powerful mage and mundane Occult Studies professor - separate without an old friend asking him to take on a new apprentice. Especially after a university colleague wants him to investigate a massive old house for things that go bump in the night. Still, Stone figures it's an easy job: just turn up, put on a little show, and announce that the house is clean. Only it isn't. A malevolent spirit is reawakening in the basement.

Gilly wouldn't call herself wicked, exactly...but when you have five little brothers and sisters and live in a run-down boot, you have to get creative to make ends meet. Gilly's a pretty good thief (if she does say so herself). Until she gets caught. Gilly's sentenced to three months at Fairy Tale Reform School where all of the teachers are former (super-scary) villains like the Big Bad Wolf, the Evil Queen, and Cinderella's Wicked Stepmother. Harsh. But when she meets fellow students Jax and Kayla, she learns there's more to this school than its heroic mission.

Minalan gave up a promising career as a professional warmage to live the quiet life of a village spellmonger in the remote mountain valley of Boval. It was a peaceful, beautiful little fief, far from the dangerous feudal petty squabbles of the Five Duchies, on the world of Callidore. There were cows. Lots of cows. And cheese. For six months things went well: He found a quaint little shop, he befriended the local lord, the village folk loved him, he found a sharp young apprentice to help out, and, best yet, he met a comely young widow with the prettiest eyes.

fun and fast
DFZ (Detroit Free Zone) is the new series by Rachel Aaron, taking place in Detroit, 20 years after the events in Heartstrikers. I thought it was fun, exciting and quick. The audio book was great as well, similar in vibe to Hearstrikers, but a different narrator.
The story follows Opal, a young Korean Mage, moved to the DFZ to get away from her controlling family. She works as a cleaner, but more in a Storage Wars kind of way, bidding for apartments and selling the stuff that’s in them, plus cleaning, after people get evicted. I’m not a huge fan of that show, but if you’re even vaguely into you should give it a try, it doesn’t really come up a lot on fantasy. It also scratches the “mundane job in a fantasy world” itch.
Characters
The cast of characters is pretty small, there’s Nick, another cleaner who has a lot of bad history, he’s mostly the silent type but grows on you, Opal’s mental health AI assistant, that keeps trying to save Opal from herself and is generally cheerful, and the lovely parents, super controlling dad and arguably insane/brainwashed mom.
Story
The main plot is Opal trying to pay back a debt, and getting hit with more and more obstacles along the way. She’s a rich girl desperate for her independence, ending up broke and hitting rock bottom, repeatedly. The action is mostly centered around out-maneuvering her dad and trying to hustle up money, but there are a few action sequences, especially the finale of book 2 is very dramatic, in a more typical fantasy novel sort of way.
Minimum Wage Magic is about her finding an apartment which hides a magical mystery and following various clues to unravel it, pissing off a few powerful people in the process.
It’s a pretty small scale story, dealing with independence, money trouble and just-no-families. There’s also some romance, of the ‘aww her poor self worth is making her blind to love interest” variety, which I’m personally a fan of. The overall tone is pretty hopeful, even though there are plenty of lows, Opal tries to work through her problems while doing the right thing and not hurting people, kinda similar to Julius in Heartstrikers.
Although it takes place after Heartstrikers, the series can be read independently. There are a few cameos here and there, which can be considered vagueish spoilers for how Heartstrikers ends (I’m not caught up with it myself).

a wonderful mix of cyberpunk and fantasy
a wonderful mix of cyberpunk and fantasy, minimum wage Magic is a story that I'm glad I picked up. It wonderfully Blends the Fantastical world of Mages and magical creatures seamlessly in with sci-fi elements like cyberware, AI, and cyborgs. both sides of the coin play a pivotal role in the story as you explore the Fantastical world of the Detroit Free Zone, a living City that's ever shifting and changing with the people that live inside of it. I'm glad that I picked up Book 2 when I got booked one because I'm ready to continue the story. I'm invested in the city and the cool stories that can be told Within.

A tight plot with charming characters set in a universe that nicely bridges now and the dystopic magic meets cyberpunk of Shadowrun.

Great clean mystery inside mystery for all ages!
The perfect audiobook! Enough mystery to keep looking forward too without being too complicated or too simple, and tons of personality thanks to Emily Woo's narration. I am definitely going to continue the series, I've already downloaded the next book!

Great start to new series!
Loved this book! I listened to the whole Heartstrikers series and with the exception of the fourth book in that series, this shows promise of being as entertaining as that series. I LOVED the performance!!! Emily Woo Zeller did a stellar job to make this book as entertaining as it was. I will look for other books that she narrates.

Wonderful gritty urban fantasy!
I never considered a society where humans and dragons existed. Here we have ancient and powerful beings, wise, terrifying and having little patience for the dramatic prattle of short-lived inferior humans.
Think Tolkien's 'Smaug.' The older, the more powerful ones can take on human form. Although, when in their presence, no one can ignore the collective warnings burned into human DNA over millenia.
Yet, standing in defiance is a young woman because she can't be a pet anymore. Opal is so likable and authentic I couldn't stop listening.
Emily Woo Zeller's performance is top notch. Each character has their own voice, cadence, and agenda. Very engaging and entertaining. When the last page had turned I immediately bought the sequel. Spend a weekend in Opal's magical world. She's good company!
