Publisher's summary

Having ascended to the prestigious role of High Priestess of Philosophia Naturalis, Kadia Greene faces challenges that push her to her limits.

Tasked with restoring ancient teachings and gathering followers, she embarks on a perilous journey with her friends. As they traverse dangerous terrains and navigate political intrigue, cities are forsaken, mountains are set ablaze, and temples are constructed on secluded peaks.

Yet, amid her feats, Kadia grapples with a deteriorating mental state, often losing track of time, reality, and even her own identity. As her internal struggle intensifies, she must balance preserving her sanity with her responsibilities to her disciples, her guild, and ultimately, herself.

I am very happy with the narrator she is fantastic and the story while some parts felt a little tedious overall it was a good story the ending was definitely not what I expected but a good one nonetheless

Fantastic Second Book

The Second Tail was a thoroughly enjoyable book. Kadia's journey continues with more exciting discoveries and fun characters. If you enjoyed the first book then this one will not disappoint.

tails are important

sorry i don't make the rules, Trismagistus dose ÙwÚ (ok fifteen word limit?)

lovely cross between "upload" and "Sword Art Online" but set in a future one might expect given current tech trends. (with a dash of "black mirror") delivered in a fluffy tailed fox format.

i love LOVE the blend of fantasy and scifi that is believable and actually kinda horrifying if you think about it.

Definitely worth the listen

I love the characters, world and story. I hope that she becomes a true digital entity. I think that the psychological ramifications would be super interesting as a character development arc.

enjoyable characters and power progression

Love the character's choices and direction of the story. it does seem that people get too used to the experience of death as if pain was turned off, but that's a very minor point.

thank you. I'll get over the British pronunciation of the word azure. ;)
