Half Dead

Crossroads Queen, Book 8

De: Annabel Chase

Narrado por: Vivienne Leheny

Lorelei Clay wants to play offense for a change. She’s tired of hiding from the past she didn’t even know she had. With a promising relationship and new friends in a small town she loves, Lorelei wants to be free to live life on her terms, without the threat of death or capture hanging over her.

Kane Sullivan hasn’t exactly been hiding from his past—more like he moved without a forwarding address. Unfortunately for him, the boss he tried to overthrow never gave up the search.

And now the former prince of hell has been found.

Kane wants to do whatever it takes to keep his problems from endangering his found family. He knows better than anyone what Lucifer is capable of.

Lorelei is willing to do whatever it takes to protect the demon she loves, but if she can’t convince him to get in the game, they risk losing everything they’ve built together.

When the supreme demon finally makes his move, Lorelei realizes there are some nightmares that even she can’t control.

You don’t want to miss Half Dead, the penultimate book in the Crossroads Queen urban fantasy series.

Argh!!! Do not read unless you want to wait for an end that should have already been written.

It should be a rule. All books that leave on a cliff hanger with no next book should have a warning!!!!! Also this book wasn’t that long the author could have easily finished the book. authors who write books just so you’ll have to buy the next frustrates the crap outta me!

Don’t do it

I STRONGLY suggest waiting for the next book to come out before you listen to this one. I just finished it and I haven’t been this frustrated and infuriated… and just plain pissed off by a book ending in a long time.

Unpleasant Surprise

Trying to comment without spoiling.
Different type of ending than I expect with this series. I did not enjoy the change.

A bit disappointed

I have enjoyed the series overall but this last book left me disappointed. Lorelei seemed to be making a lot of stupid mistakes. The goddess of nightmares can't outwit her own nightmare? I would expect Lorelei to have evolved in the magical sense. I was waiting for some sort of elevation in her 3rd trial. Underworld vs underworld!!...But nope! We're several books in and Lorelei is still doubting herself and her powers. **Insert blowing raspberry sound here**

Nice twist ending!

I’ve seen a number of reviews which lament this is not a complete book. I quite disagree. The main plot point of the book is resolved, in a very interesting manner. The fact this series will clearly continue, seeing as how The Corporation is still fully at large, just means more books & more plot!

I felt Lorelei demonstrated solid character development in this book. Several support cast characters also showed solid growth. Obviously there were tricks and traps laid out given. This is not the last book of the series. However, I would not say they were stupid mistakes. all mistakes can look stupid in hindsight.

It’s a fun, light series I have enjoyed. I will mark to be alerted when another volume comes out. For now, I choose another author & series to start. I am not feeling inclined to give this one a reread just yet.

I enjoy the breadth of accents the vocal talent achieved! Brava!

ending was not what I expected

I am hope that this is not The end of the series. I was hoping for a better outcome.

Favorite narrator ever

Good series, moves along well. Good characters. Gets a little repetitive with the theme of self awareness and forgiveness but it serves the story too. Whole series is well-done and enjoyable.

WTF MC just rolled over.

Just roll right over. Dose whatever the big bad said with zero in put on a “bargain” didn’t even bother to turn whatever the hell she’s sign. Zero thought process. When did she get so wishy washy?

I love this series but if this is the main characters baseline of” that is gonna happen to me so I take it without fighting I think this might be where I stop. I will try the next book.

Nooo I want to know what happens next!

Talk about a long game. But one thing is for sure this book dragged me in and brought some long lost friends back. And some enemies. Who would have thunk that a corporation meeting would be the east part! If you have enjoyed any of these stories this one is a must for you. Annabel better be writing fast!

Baby, Don’t Leave Me This Way!

It’s almost time to say goodbye to Lorelei and the gang. I’m going to miss Nana Pratt. The devil has come to Pennsylvania. Can Lorelei save her beloved town from Lucifer? Buy the audio book and find out!
