In this debut novel and series starter, the last member of a murdered House searches for a missing nobleman, and uncovers clues about his own tortured past.

Rune Saint John, the last child of the fallen Sun Court, is hired to search for Lady Judgment's missing son, Addam, on New Atlantis, the island city where the Atlanteans moved after ordinary humans destroyed their original home.

With his companion and bodyguard, Brand, he questions Addam's relatives and business contacts through the highest ranks of the nobles of New Atlantis. But as they investigate, they uncover more than a missing man: a legendary creature connected to the secret of the massacre of Rune's Court. In looking for Addam, can Rune find the truth behind his family's death and the torments of his past?

I give up.
Everyone is pulling all kind of magick out their backsides.
It is a mess mostly focusing on romancing.
Not much structure or sense.

The actor narrating this book is absolutely fantastic. I loved the book itself as well but wanted to specifically leave a review here because the audio is one of the best I've ever encountered. My only regret is that the Russian accent is in no way even remotely accurate, but I'm used to that with audiobooks. Other than that, some of the BEST narration I've ever encountered.

excellent book, excellent narration

I love this story so much, I love the characters and how full and complete they are Rune is such a rounded character with his power and ability paired with an almost pathological aversion to the lime light, His relationship with Brand is also so special, it's just so nice to have a relationship that is so caring and loving but not based on sexual attraction, I love the relationships between them, they are all so wonderfully real.
The style of writing is fantastic as well. I'm a bit paradoxical in what I want in a story, I love action but endless fight scenes can easily bore me to tears. Fight scenes are all so wonderfully sensory focusing less on trying to describe fancy fighting that can only really impress on film and focusing in on things like the smell of magic and the way spells feel when they are released. It makes for a much more engaging story.
The narrator is great too, He captures Rune's internal voice with scathing, defensive wit perfectly as well as having unique voices for all the main players. If I had any criticism it would be that he makes Adamm a little too Russian as standard. Quite a bit is made of how his accent comes out stronger at certain times and I think that by playing it as strong as he does , her doesn't give himself anywhere to go when the accent is supposed to sharpen. That is the tiniest thing though, minute in fact.
The final thing I need to praise is the representation in the story and not just the inclusion of LGBT culture but the way it is handled so deftly. It isn't laboured, It isn't angsted over, it just is the same as anything else just is.
Absolutely brilliant. I have already purchased the Hanged Man, tracked down the free novellas on line and purchased hard copies of the novels. I am now waiting oh so impatiently for the next installment. The best book I have listened to in a while

Absolutely hooked

The story is brilliant and keeps you engaged from start to finish and I am very excited for the next book.

The narrator - I mean wow he nailed it beyond belief. He managed to give such perfect life to the characters and make some scenes cause me to laugh out loud and look weird in public.
Please use him if possible for the next book.

This is the best audible purchase I have made in my 2 years I think.

Perfection

The story was actually good, fast paced an full of action, but with enought moments to learn about the characters and connect.
The narration could have been better, sometimes it was hard to tell, which character is speaking, but other than that, I finished the book in one go and am looking forward to the next books in the series.

Surprisingly very good
