About this listen
Mage Alex Verus has gone from a Camden shopkeeper to one of the most powerful mages in Britain. Now his last and most dangerous battle lies before him.
Alex's girlfriend, the life mage Anne, has fallen fully under the control of the deadly djinn she made a bargain with, and it is preparing to create an army of mages subject to its every whim. Alex, the Council, and the Dark mage Richard Drakh agree to call a truce in their war, and plans are made for a joint attack. Alex knows that it's only a matter of time before Drakh and the Council turn on each other...and neither cares about keeping Anne alive. Can Alex figure out a way to stop Anne and to free her from possession before time runs out for the people he loves?

Fabulous book
One of the best audiobook series bar none such a pleasure to listen to this book and this great series. Fabulous last book in keeping with the others keeping you on the edge of your seat until the very end!. Hopefully there can be a spin series of books as the story writing and storytelling have been first class. If you like or love magic you need to read this series.

Bleddy brilliant and enthralling
These books were right up my street. They had me hooked from start to finish. The narrator was fantastic and made listening to him most pleasurable and enthralling. I will most definitely be recommending both Narrator and Author to others.

Who needs films with books like this?
I never thought BJ’s writing could more intense, but this was a brilliant book and the reading of it was perfect. Every nail biting second. The combat descriptions with so much detail and emotion.
Recommend this book and I shall be coming back to it again very soon.

The best series of manic books ever written
I love these books and have listened almost back to back from start to finish. A great finale and storyline as always and a fitting end to the series. I’m not sure what I’m going to listen to now that Alex is out of my life. I’m sad it’s all over and no more left. I loved them so very much.

Great conclusion but confused narrator
This is a fitting end to the series, and one that really had to come. Not because the series was going bad but because going further would just have been too much.
I always liked the narrator who’s voice was perfect for Alex. In this book he made an incredible amount of mistakes where he would use the wrong voice. This made it difficult to listen to certain passages when in dialogs sometimes Alexs voice was used also for parts of what others said.
