The Earth is under siege - and no one knows about it because the invaders erase those whom they consume. A handful of men and women stand on the border between the mundane and the magical. They have a special spark of soul - not quite enough to be naturally gifted in spellcraft but greater than the average person, a tiny flame that can ignite incredible potential. They possess the ability to fight back against the Vorid: the ability to become a Contractor.

Daniel Fitzgerald is one of those people, but when duty comes calling he promptly slams the door in its face. He has no illusions of grandeur. He is not someone special. He wants to go to school and study law. And frankly, he doesn't really like people, and he doesn't want anything to do with magic. He just wants to be left alone. But when the entire planet is a battlefield, there is no place to run.

It's really hard not to spoil stuff so I will say this: It's a well written young adult story and if you like good, kinda dark fantasy in modern times (urban fantasy it's caleld I think?) mixed with sci-fi, great characters and well written fight scenes, this is definetly book for you!

I bought this audiobook kinda on a whim. I wanted to try random fantasy so I bought something Luke Daniels narrated and I was seriously surprised. How to explain the book without spoiling a lot of stuff. What I will say is, movie of this book would be absolutely spectacular. Magic gives author incredible range of how fight scenes can look and those were definetly one of best parts of this book.

Main character especially is really fun to imagine when he fights and I couldnt get enough of those scenes. It is fun to watch him get better and better.
When it comes to characters. Main character felt bit unsympathetic to me after the start and felt like he had a lot of "a perfect guy" momnets, but if you realise what kind of person he is, you start to like him. At least I did.
Side characters were pretty much all interesting to me or at least well written when they had just short few lines. You could understand their character instantly, but I am not saying there were not complex characters. There are and character development is pretty good in this book.
Book's lore is rich and interesting, it has so many stuff that even when you think like you've seen everything, you will find out something new.

I am looking forward for next book in a series and I will definetly buy it as soon as its available. Hopefully Luke Daniels will continue narrating this series, because his performance was amazing as always and I am starting to believe he just cant narate badly anything fantasy related. I havent heard his other genres, but fantasy is something he definetly nailed.

Unexpectedly awesome

It was an unexpected joy. At times there were parts that were a bit too juvenile. But it quickly turned back around to continue a great story line. I can't wait for the second book

Great, new, refreshing takes on old concepts.

I loved this book

This is similar to the God Touched series. We as people fear what we don’t understand. It highlights being stuck in our own ways… very entertaining and not to predictable. Great listen also!

A good view of fear of what we don’t understand.

Absolutely amazing!! Drama, suspense, thrill…this had it all!!!! So well narrated, that I grabbed my tv remote to rewind it back a few minutes thinking I was watching a movie. My eyes were closed and the visuals were that vivid! Kudos to the narrator 👍🏾

Amazing story!!!!
