About this listen

A young woman must work with a magician who is not what he seems to find her father in this new contemporary portal fantasy series.

With her father vanished under suspicious circumstances and her old life destroyed, Tessa Andrews is determined to pick up the pieces and forge ahead. If only their borrowed house didn't shake and rumble as if haunted. But at least she and her mom have a roof over their heads, so her luck couldn't be all bad, could it?

As if to prove her wrong, Tessa gets an urgent call for help one night from crusty old Professor Brandard, one of the people on her charity meals route. She dashes over, only to find the house in flames and the professor gone. A handsome young man steps out of the ashes to request her assistance, claiming to be the professor and a Phoenix wizard. She not only has to believe in him, but in magic, for an ancient evil is awakening and it will take the two of them, plus a few shady friends, to stand against it.

Because the rejuvenation ritual has gone horribly wrong. The late, great wizard desperately needs to get his mojo back, for only if Brandard regains all his magic do they stand any chance of defeating this deadliest of perils.

Loved this book!

Bopped back and forth on Kindle and Audible for this book. Terrific narrator on the audiobook. Loved the twists and turns in the story, kept me up late to find out what would happen next. I loved that Tessa delivered meals to seniors, even though she did it reluctantly. Other favorite parts? Loved the places they went to find clues. Never heard of a Phoenix Wizard and thought it a terrific thing. The characters had loads of depth and surprises of their own. Totally fooled me in most cases. I cried in one part. I hope the next book comes out quick! I usually enjoy Daw books but this one exceeded my expectations. Recommend this book to anyone who loves urban fantasy, not the dark dreary kind, but one that is fresh, fast and fantastic.

Inconsistent

This is a really interesting and fun book, but the reaction to the fact that magic exist is inconsistent and a little unrealistic.
