Wandfasted

De: Laurie Forest

Narrado por: Jesse Vilinsky

Magic, romance, and adventure collide in Wandfasted, the irresistible prequel to The Black Witch.

When they painted Heretics on our barn and set fire to it, I thought that was the worst it could get.

Until they sent the dragons.

But they didn't count on us having dragons of our own. And they certainly didn't count on Her. Our Great Mage. The Bringer of Fire. The Storm of Death. The Crow Sorceress. Our Deliverance.

The Black Witch.

It warms my heart to hear this beautiful story. I love the whole series and can't stop listening to the books once I start.

Wasn't sure, gave it a try, loved it!

I was immediately drawn into the story and felt invested in the characters. I LOVED the narration, the development of all the characters was so clear and vivid!! I kept wanting to sneak in my earphones at work!

My new favorite series

This is my second time through the series. I am in awe and in love with the world that Laurie Forest has created. The message of these books has been so important in our past and still now in the world we live in today. I can't say enough good things.

Wandfasted Review

I gave this book a 5 star. It follows the story of Tesla a level 3 mage. It begins with her making potions and taking them into a town where her witch kind isn’t really liked but tolerated. But this time the couple she usually trades decides they’re not doing it anymore. At the same time outside people began to wrangle up her kind and bring them to town. She escapes with her friend Jewels who is part of this town but then they are captured.
She is put into a pin with other girls of her kind. While her family and other males are put into a barn. The barn is sat on fire and she grabs a wand from one of the soldiers and puts a shield over her and the women. Level 5 Mages came and saved the people in the barn and her as well.
Vain is a level 5 mage that helps her along with Vail. He is the son of the the Black Witch. She is taken to a tent and goes in and out for a few days.
She is made aware that a lot of people don’t like her due to the fact they think she is impure and has had relations with a kelt. She tells them Jewels is just a friend but that does little to change anyone’s mind. Then she is told her and other refugees are gonna be wandfasted which is where you are put together with a mate. Almost like you are promised to this person and lines become visible on your hands. Also, you can’t be with anyone else if you’re a girl because your hands will burn and other things. When you seal the marks they go up your wrist and it means that the ceremony or wand fasting is completed and has been consummated. She almost gets fastmated to this level 5 mage who just wants to see if she’s pure but Vail steps up at the last minute and tells his mom that their infinity lines are the same.
He is kind to her and has her family taking care of. Even though her grandfather almost forced her to be with someone she didn’t want. She gets to know avail more and more. She is fallen for him. She also learns he is friends with Jewels. So that’s why he was trying to act disinterested in her in the beginning.
They try and keep away from each other since both their fires burn. But on the night they were going to seal their bond a knock comes at the door and it’s a friend of Vail’s. He needs Vail to help in the Hiding of his mistress that’s a seal woman. She can turn into a seal with her skin. If she does have her skin then she’s powerless and takes the form of a human. She has this baby and they both are in trouble. So, they agree to help and hide them.
Then it fast forwards to their a wedding that they have and that’s the end. The only part I didn’t like was it seems to just all of a sudden ends.

D'awwwwww

Fresh with the horrors of an all too real world in a fictional universe, this story gives some all too needed insight into the world we're thrust into at the start of the Black Witch. While not nearly so intricate as its forebear, this is far more intimate. I'm not going to lie, I didn't bother to read the blurb before I bought and devoured this book so I was a little confused for the first couple of chapters until I realized what was going on and was able to immerse myself fully.

much better than first book the Black Witch

I was hesitant to go with this author's next book as the first story had flawed in my opinion. This story has a better flow and the main characters where developed well. Also the back story information helps make the first book better. The lead female in this story is strong and believable.

Hopefully the rest of the books in this series will be written like this and the damsile in distress lead female are gone for good.

loved the story not so much the narrator

this series is one of my favorites, unfortunately the narrator can get annoying. she over does her acting of every character and I feel that it takes away from the story instead of pulling me in. It reads more like a play rather then telling a story or at least that's how she makes it seem. still I would suffer her poor performance to hear the story itself because it is definitely worth the read.

Great story, whiney narrator.

Story was great but it was a bit distracting that the narrorator always made Tess sound like whiney little girl. It is like she only had one emotion the whole book.

Wandfasted

Loved this book! Loved the characters and the imagination. Can’t wait to read The Black Witch.
