About this listen
When Shax stumbles across rumors of an experimental house that responds to the occupant’s brain functions, creating scenarios to please and delight, naturally, he wants to steal it. But with the return of a troubled and hunted Julian Parallax and an overabundance of Poe references, even Shax’s scheming may not be enough to get the Brimstone crew out alive this time.

Before Ness, before Corny, before Leopold and Heckle and Mac, there was just Shax and Verin and a newly stolen, er, acquired cargo ship. Join Shax on his first adventure in space in which a pampered demon prince has a lot to learn. When a steel trap of celestial and infernal politics threatens to close around them, Shax and Verin flee Earth’s system in a stolen ship, leaving everything behind. It’s an elegantly simple plan, with a new ship and a new life as carefree brigands.

Smart men never dabble with demons. I never claimed to be smart, but at least, I’m powerful enough to control them. When I bound Havoc to me nearly 300 years ago, I never realized how difficult he’d make my life, although “accidentally” lighting him on fire every now and then does bring a smile to my face. Havoc is handsome, mysterious, and somehow, my closest companion, even if we don’t always get along.

Xander Corey lives simply, sustainably, on the outskirts of Osprey, a small, quaint town in Upstate New York. He’s a librarian when the town’s budget can afford him, a good friend, kind neighbor, and also, a witch. And while that’s of no concern to anyone around him, there are others, non-humans, who have a vested interest in Xander’s family land. Xander knows something dark and dangerous is brewing. He’s just not quite sure what.

Caspian, fourth son and yet still a Crown Prince of Gunkermal, knew he was a party to a marriage contract. Arranged marriages were common in his family, and he expected the contract would cement various trade or security agreements with another country. He just didn't realize the other party to his contract was a full-grown man, who stepped off his ship--and into Caspian's life--as if he owned it.

Growing up on modern day Earth, I had no idea I’d been selected from birth to help a dying race save their population. So when a starship abducts me for a royal wedding with galactic consequences, my only option is to help its crew of beautiful officers complete their mission. The catch? I have to protect my gorgeous bride and new allies from an alluring enemy who wants my immunity to a fertility-killing plague for herself, even if it means I have to take command.

Stefan de Marco was looking for a position...again. Being a high scoring magical anchor was only useful in his world when he had someone to partner with. His slender body and elfin looks meant he was usually only chosen to anchor people who believed his duties should extend well past working hours, and that wasn't something Stefan was interested in.

Those details are locked down tight inside the chaos of my mind, and I don't have the key. The only thing I do know - I'm dead. Major bummer, right?

Wonderful
I really should say something other than I loved this audiobook, but I really did. I also enjoyed hearing more of Heckle and Mack, along with Leo and Max.

Good installment in a good series
I enjoy this series a lot and I'm glad the latest volume is now available on audio. Vance Bastian does a great job, as always, with different and appropriate voices for all of the characters.
I really like the new romance between Mac and Heckle, but otherwise, this plot goes a few places that I'm not totally comfortable with. There's a love triangle happening at this point, and it isn't resolved in this story. But this is really Heckle's book, although several other things happen.

Oh my hell gods
This is the best of the series and I hope there is more. I know when a book is good when I want one of the characters in real life whether it be a pink hedgehog or opera singing multi-pede, an abused imp, a fallen angel, cowboy, or a demon. I love the multi-demention of these characters and the depth of friendship they have. This is not a stand alone book, you have to read in sequence as each book adds a new character and this book adds three more. Even though book 3 is a prequel you should read it before as it adds an important character and event.
Oh, lets not forget Vance Bastian. He is not just a narrator he is a voice actor. All through the book(s) I had to remind myself that there weren't multiple people but just one who embodied these characters. There are but a few narrators that I get excited when I see their name attached to a book and Vance is one. He has such range and different inflections for each character that it's such an experience to listen to. Bravo Mr. Bastian.

Su much fun
It's always fun going back to this characters and see what adventure they are going to share with us. This is such fun to listen to. I loved it. The narration is beautiful, i love everything about it, the pace, the voices, even the singing that I wasn't even expecting buy put on a smile on my face. I think the narration gives somethignextravto the book. Fantastic experience.
