Wrathful Mortals

Age of Vampires, Book 4

By: Caroline Peckham, Susanne Valenti

Narrated by: Michelle Sparks, Troy Duran

The gods play havoc with our souls.

Callie:

I’m torn in two. The mark of the gods has bound me to my mortal enemy, and not even the most desperate yearnings of my heart can break this tie. Between the slayer’s vow and the cruel tricks of Idun, my free will has been stolen from me. All I can hope for now, is that my sister and I can find a path to salvation, but it feels as though we’re walking a path to our ruin instead.

Montana: I made my choice, and there’s no turning back. The world has finally offered me the liberty I craved, so why does my heart keep begging me to return to the monster I left behind? I sense a danger brewing on the horizon, something coming this way that we can’t escape. And even as my thoughts settle on a faraway land where we can leave our hellish past behind for good, I fear it won’t be that easy. The games of the gods have only just begun.

***This is a dark, fantasy romance series by the authors of Zodiac Academy with all the enemies to lovers vibes–don’t go expecting a sweet vampire with sparkling skin and a tendency to watch you sleeping. These vampires are savage and bloodthirsty, and the slayer who hunts them will stab first and ask questions later.

This war-torn fantasy world is a brutal bi*ch and only those 18+ have a chance at surviving the darkness lurking in the audio. There’s no well-meaning vampires snacking on Bambies instead of babies, and if they get their teeth into you, you’ll be damn lucky to escape with your life and panties intact. So grab hold of your slayer blade (wooden stakes have too many splinters) and get ready to defy the gods, because this is going to be one helluva ride***

amazing read

Wrathful Mortals pulled me in and kept me hooked from the first second. The narrators are amazing and really portray the emotions of the book. This book delves more into the sisters and their trials. It is great to see them together but also separate in their feelings. The ending is intense, but knowing it's not the final ending is helpful to get through that emotional turmoil.

5 stars

Awesome narration and great story . I am immediately starting the next one in the series! I’m super excited.

A long time coming

The clash between the slayers and the vampires was along time coming and the battle lived up to expectations. I was so excited for the sisters to finally be back together and it breaks my heart that so see them separated yet again. This series is definitely ramping up and I’m excited to see what’s next!

Long time coming

Spoiler alert…

While I found this book to be a little slower in action from the rest it didn’t take away from being an awesome continuation! The long awaited battle between the 2 main vampires and the 2 main slayers was action packed. I couldn’t believe the crazy plot twist that happened with Montana and can’t wait to start the next book.

Another exciting installment in the series

Wow, did that ever take a turn?!? But, what else would we expect from our beloved Twisted Sisters? This book felt so dark at times, and Julius’s irreverent humor continued to be a welcome addition to the overall tone of the book. He is definitely the lovable, absolutely necessary comedic relief (with a huge heart) that Peckham and Valenti always include in their novels. Honestly, it’s my favorite part of their writing! Magnar finally grew on me, but I do wish we’d had more Erik time. Love that vampire! This was a quick and enjoyable listen. I continue to appreciate the narrators, though do still listen to them at about 2.7-3.0 speed. (That’s a me issue—I have to do this to all audiobooks or I feel like everything is in sloooooow moooootionnnnnn. ;)) I can’t wait to tackle the next book in the series and see where the story leads us!

How Could It End Like That?!?!

I loved the build of the storyline throughout this book, adding to the back story and getting more of the points of view from our 2 male main characters. I love the dynamics of Montana and Callie and how both of these characters are strong despite everything they’ve been through. The last couple hours of this book had me at the edge of my seat and anxious as to what would happen next, then when the most jaw dropping, gasp worthy situation occurs, it’s the end. Cannot wait to listen to the next!

Loveeee all of there book

This book draws you in just like all of the others💜 the voice actors can really bring the books to life!

Need Book 5!

I so love this series. It's been awhile since I've enjoyed a story and characters like this. Julius cracks me up. The narrators are awesome. I can't wait until the rest of the series is released on audible. I need more!

Love this story

So good! They always leave me hanging with more questions hahaha I can’t wait to see how all of this is going to play out. Didn’t get enough Erick ;) but it was amazing nonetheless.
