The Girl Who Fights Witches

The Hybrid of High Moon Series, Book 2

De: Rick Gualtieri

Narrado por: Rachel Dulude

Half witch, half werewolf, all attitude.

My name's Tamara Bentley, and I should be happy to be heading home for the holidays. Too bad tensions between the supernatural forces surrounding my hometown are at an all-time high - witches and werewolves, ancient enemies who would happily slaughter each other. One side fears me, the other doesn't know I exist, and I aim to keep it that way, lest they both decide to find common ground in killing me.

Now an offer for peace has been extended, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the two warring races to settle their differences. So, of course, someone is looking to screw it all up. Not only do they want to put an end to the fragile peace before it can even begin, but they're looking to shift the balance of power by blowing open the gates that protect our world from the things that lay beyond.

After a surprise attack leaves both sides crippled, me and my friends are the only ones left who can stop to their plans. Sadly, we're outnumbered and outgunned. Even my unique heritage might not be enough to save my family, my friends, and everything I hold dear before Hell itself is unleashed upon the Earth.

Keeps getting better!

What a fun tale. I like the attitude of the MC. I get tired of weak whiney FMCs that make bad decisions over and over again. Bent makes a few bad choices but cleans up her mess and is really funny about it. The other characters are good too. I do have a problem with her mom's choices, so hopefully that will iron itself out. This is my second book by this author and I'm becoming a fan!

Love the series, disappointed....

Love this series, but am very disappointed that book 3 is not available in audible format!
Really hope this changes!

great sequel

I loved this book, great story and narrator. Fun and exciting as Rick always provides.

Wow! Just wow!

I cannot wait for the next installment! I was listening at work, at home while cleaning house, in the mornings getting ready for work! I could not “put it down!” Love love love this series!!!!!

I got bent, again, and I liked it!

I forgot just how much I enjoyed the first entry to this series. Bent Outta Shape was just as good, if not better than the original. Again, we find ourselves with Bent and her family/friends as they dive deeper into her hybrid Lycan/witch life and the drama/adventures it brings.

I love Rick's ability to develop a scene in the right amount of detail that allows me to visualize it. The various fights in this audiobook were made that much more enjoyable because of this fact.

As with the last entry, Rachel did a fantastic job with the narration. I've really got to look more into other books she has narrated.

Another easy 5/5 from Mr. Gualtieri.

Best penned series yet.

This is one of his best written series yet. Very well done. And for RG very little sophomoric humor that bad the Bill vampire books , that humor was a trademark but got tiring. Very, very good writing

Bent is frustrating at times!

A easy story to get caught up in so much that you're yelling at the main character for doing/not doing something. There was a good plot twist near the end too.
Sometimes it was difficult to tell who was talking between Bent and Cass when they were talking to each other.
I'm looking forward to more stories/adventures of Bent.

So good

Well worth the credit. Narrator was great, I love the characters and the unexpected twists. I recommend this one

great series but sub par narration

The narrator has this annoying habit of pausing after every second or third word.
I forced myself to finish but she really needs to even out her speach.

Great Sequel

I thought I had this novel figured out about three chapters in—literally no real surprises to come. And while I had figured out the main "surprise" I was wrong about just about all my other guesses. As a result, Gualtieri presents the reader with an action-packed novel with a lot of surprises and a few interesting discoveries.

The novel opens in the early chapters with a very dumb decision on the part of Bent's parents. Bent knows it's a dumb decision. The reader knows it's a dumb decision. And I would guess that the parents knew it was dumb decision too. But honestly, family makes us do some very stupid things and so, dumb or not, I thought it was believable. As a result of that decision (and I would be shocked if anyone considered this a spoiler), Bent is unpowered for most of the novel and having to fight with her wits rather than her magical abilities. That created some wonderful tension. In the last book, she basically took on a whole werewolf pack and beat them, so she's a tank. Taking that ability away from her was a great idea, even if it required a really dumb decision.

There was also a very nice uncovering of some of the secrets of the werewolf pack--especially the person of the alpha female. Gualtieri continues to expand Bent's world and to give some pretty strong clues about the big crisis which is coming down the road.
