Siobhan Ashdown was born of magic; it rides her blood like a phantom, tainted and dark and unpredictable. She is a warlock, and the power within her is unlike any before known to her kind. So it's no surprise that the most powerful of the demons who feed off of this warlock magic not only recognizes the enormous potential she represents but determines that he will possess her at any cost.

Even if it means war with the entire supernatural world.

Thanatos has ruled Purgatory as the Phantom King since time immemorial. King of a vast plane of solitude, he is a free spirit, a lone rider, a tattooed man of wind and dust and nonexistent boundaries. Then he turns around one morning to find himself face-to-face with Siobhan Ashdown, a woman with hair as red and wild as his soul, eyes like melted gold, and a spirit as elusive as his own. Time stops, the world tilts, and the fact that she attacks him right off the bat does little to deter his romantic convictions - or his desire to sink his fangs into her neck.

Thirteen Kings are severed by lust and greed, an ancient vampire and his rogue creation lay claim to what is not theirs, the whisperings of war begin to shake the foundation of the supernatural world, and primordial evil awakens from its slumber to slither across the land in this second installment in Heather Killough-Walden's Kings series.

I admit that the first book The Vampire King was a let down and allowed me to judge the entire series. I came back to the series six months later to give this a listen and was pleasantly surprised. If you are like me, give this a chance. The relationship between Thanos and Chevon is much better and there’s more story building. Seemed like book one was a trial run and the writing got much better with this.

Much better than the first...

I absolutely love this series I'm on I just finished book two can't wait for the next one I'm glad I have a credit to pay for the next one otherwise I'll be upset cuz I need to hear more. absolutely love this author highly recommend that Siri is it definitely must listen if you love sci-fi and vampires and werewolves and witches and all that so it's great story I'm telling you and I love how it has romantic stuff to it as well so it's like a good Sci-Fi Romance

this is a great book and series I really enjoy it this was the second one and I can't wait to listen to the next

What made the experience of listening to The Phantom King the most enjoyable?

Compared to The Vampire King, I felt the chemistry between Siobhan and Thane was much more believable than Roman and Evelyn, so I enjoyed the book overall, more than the first one. In general, I thought everything she brought up in this one was more interesting than the first.

What aspect of Antony Ferguson’s performance would you have changed?

Ok so here's what I'm going to say about his performance and I will leave it at that: On an episode of Family Guy I saw one time, Peter and the guys cause a ruckus in a pub, and a British guy convinces them to leave using his "superior linguistic skills." This is how I feel, more or less, about British narrators. I mean, c'mon Ferguson, these are American characters so at very least...but everyone sounds British (ok so Steven (Stephen?) you gave a US voice, but it wasn't very convincing). So, on one hand, totally lame. American accents are easy. But, on the other hand, if it's one or other, I choose Brit v. American accent 8 times out of 10. I hope that helps.

Any additional comments?

I think part of what I like about this series is the potential. Theoretically there are 11 more opportunities for the author to build up a nice over-arching plot while getting some nice lurve stories at the same time. Hope she keeps it up!

A solid follow-up to a good foundation

Two books into the series and I’m seeing a pattern-H and h meet, H rescues h, they have sex (mate), then move onto the next book and couple. That’s it, no build up! For a romance book, it is seriously lacking. The story and characters are still building, but I would like to see more relationship building between couples. There is literally none. I hope it gets better as the series continues. As for the overall world building, it’s pretty good. It’s a new spin on supernatural creatures and their world. There are a lot of characters to keep up with and previous events and couples mentioned that led me to look up other books from this author. From what I can tell there are two other series before this one that probably should be read first to help better understand what is going on and who all the characters are. Unfortunately I didn’t know this and there is no mention of it in the blurb. So I’m going to keep moving on through this series and maybe go back and read the others. I’ll see how this one turns out first.
The narrator is okay but over lengthens pauses between sentences and commas, so the reading doesn’t flow very well. I changed the speech settings to go faster and this helped a little but doesn’t fix the problem. His voice is nice but he needs to work on accents. Sometimes it’s hard to tell who is talking but that’s probably due to how many different characters there are. I think using at least two different narrators would help out with this problem. Overall it’s not too bad to listen to. I’ve definitely heard worse narrators.

Two books in and I hope it gets better

Got confused at one point, as sometimes I was unsure which realm they were in, but it sorted itself out eventually.

But it's a great series! Id recommend this to lots of my friends.

This book was good. Not as good as the first one IMO. I do like all the characters and realms, the story is interesting and keeps your attention. I do miss dialogue, there is not much dialogue in these books, but the story is good. The sex is mild, and there was only one sex scene.

This series seems to be a continuation of each book. They cannot be stand alone books at all. You must read from the beginning of this series, The Vampire King, and in order or you will be lost.

I do feel like there was a bit of "filler" in this book. I particularly didn't like that we got Siobhan thoughts at her first meeting with Thanatos and then his thoughts it was about 2 chapters of repeat. Literally a repeat. I also thought the motorcycle race in purgatory was to long and unnecessary.

Other than that it was a good book. I will read the next in the series because the characters are quite fascinating.

Narrator did a good job. He is no Robert Petkoff but he did a good job.
Credit Worthy? Yes I think so.

Not as great as the first book. But still good.

I loved this book. This whole series is actually ridiculously well written and enticing. I constantly found myself struggling to turn this one off so I could actually get some work done - I just could not focus! I was very drawn into the characters and story. Very nice!

Intriging

Firstly, any words that I am about to use in my review, quite frankly, won't be enough to express just how brilliant, awesome and mind blowingly (ok I know Spellcheck told me it's not a real word) fantastic book this was.

HKW's gifted mind creates for us a parallel supernatural world, fills it with interesting, amusing and some hot paranormal characters that are all brought to life by the delicious voices of AF and together the talented pair draw you into a multi layered plot that's filled with intrigue, romance, twists and turns with so many sub plots, some of which hint at an ultimate climatic battle between an evil entity and the handsome 13 Alpha Kings together with their (all hopefully found) soul mates and partners - the lucky lucky Queens (could be funny but no, they are all, presumably, of the female variety).

This book was an action packed, thrilling listen that was riveting and pulled you right in to the fast paced love story as Thane finds his Queen (Siobhan) but fate denies him the time to properly woo her and explain his paranormal life as she's thrown straight into his magical world containing Demons, Witches, Warlocks, Vampires, Phantoms and all sorts of supernaturals which leaves her confused, breathless, dumbstruck but...... ultimately happy with Thane (sensible girl). There is a lot of mutual 'tingling' attraction going on but the sex scene wasn't very graphic and it didn't need to be as it was emotionally intense.

Worth a credit? Well it's left me bereft - putting the feeling into words - it's like you're starving, so you order your favorite pizza, it's delivered, you open the box mmmmm delicious..... but you're only given ONE more slice - yes, it was a mind-blowing, mouthwateringly, delicious taste but you needed MORE and NOW!!! Luckily I don't have to wait long .... just 9 days (and counting) until the next King audiobook is released and I get to taste my next slice of Heaven which I've already pre-ordered. So, back to 'worth the credit?' well do you really think I'm going to say no after this review and I'm anticipating spending many many more until I reach the ultimate WOW factor and get the WHOLE pizza!!

A WELL DESERVED 5 STAR RATING FOR A WORTHY LISTEN
