About this listen
Kera Watson never expected to face death behind a Los Angeles coffee shop. Not after surviving two tours lugging an M16 around the Middle East. If it wasn't for her hot Viking customer showing up too late to help, nobody would even have seen her die. In uncountable years of service to the Allfather Odin, Ludvig "Vig" Rundstrom has never seen anyone kick ass with quite as much style as Kera. He knows one way to save her life - but she might not like it. Signing up with the Crows will get Kera a new set of battle buddies: cackling, gossiping, squabbling, party-hearty women. With wings. So not the marines. But Vig can't give up on someone as special as Kera.
With a storm of oh-crap magic speeding straight for LA, survival will depend on combining their strengths: Kera's discipline, Vig's loyalty...and the Crows' sheer love of battle. Boy, are they in trouble.

Story
Neecy Lawrence, winged warrior for a Viking goddess and second-in-command of the fierce Crows, doesn't know what to do with a nice guy. As it is, making up for a past she'd sooner forget leaves her barely polite most days. But Raven leader and loyal Odin warrior, Will Yager, isn't just nice. He's gorgeous, hot, and a distraction she simply can't afford. Yager has wanted Neecy in his life - and in his bed - for a long time. Not just for a night, but forever. And, like any self-respecting Viking, he'll stop at nothing to get her.

"Happily Ever After" wasn't supposed to come with a do-over option. But when my husband of 20 years packs up and heads for greener pastures, and my son heads away to college, that's exactly what my midlife becomes. A do-over. This time, though, I plan to do things differently. Age is just a number, after all, and at 40 I'm ready to carve my own path. Eager for a fresh start, I make a somewhat unorthodox decision and move to a tiny town in the Sierra foothills.

Bree's intent on moving forward with her life and building a future with someone else. Sadly, the male she wants most is one she can never have - a hot-as-sin wolverine shifter who happens to be her boss...and the cousin of her predestined mate.

For most people, the story of their lives is just that: the accumulation of time, encounters, and actions into a cohesive whole. But for an unfortunate few, that day-to-day existence is affected - perhaps infected is a better word - by memetic incursion: where fairy tale narratives become reality, often with disastrous results.

Neecy Lawrence, winged warrior for a Viking goddess and second-in-command of the fierce Crows, doesn't know what to do with a nice guy. As it is, making up for a past she'd sooner forget leaves her barely polite most days. But Raven leader and loyal Odin warrior, Will Yager, isn't just nice. He's gorgeous, hot, and a distraction she simply can't afford. Yager has wanted Neecy in his life - and in his bed - for a long time. Not just for a night, but forever. And, like any self-respecting Viking, he'll stop at nothing to get her.

Meh, you have to suffer 80% of the book to start the story
The narrator was horrible, I someone else pointed out the weird southern accent, which doesn't make sense based in California.
Most of the book it's like listening to petty teenager brats simply complain with no reason or explanation. They tried to make the sorority house behave like a frat house. They are not the same. This went on for about 75% of the book, literally over 7 hrs of the 10 the books has. Absolutely unnecessary for the story.
When it started getting interesting, suddenly the scenes are supershort, incomplete and superficial. Why did we have to suffer through all of the detailed explanations on petty BS and then the author skims on the important stuff?
The story was good, once it actually started unraveling at about 90% into the book (I thought, FINALLY, let's see how much is left...less than 1 hr!!!). So, yeah, I'll try the second book to see where the underlying story goes. Don't really care about the "romance" part, which is really more like "hey you, the book threw us together, let's bang." No substance and really no need for only using crass words, sorry, that's not romance, it's only sex. Uninteresting.

Great world building and narration
I really enjoyed this story. I loved how the author built up a modern tale set in Los Angeles based loosely on Norse mythology. The narrator does an admirable job bring to life multiple characters. The romance between the two main characters concludes in this book but the building conflict in the overarching plot continues in the next book.

Fabulous!!!
Where does The Unleashing rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I rank it one of the very best audios I have listened to so far and I have listened to a lot. I love and have read all of Shelly's shifter romances but was reluctant to start this new series, especial to read but absolutely loved it. Maybe not to read but with the great narrator Johanna Parker, I could not lose.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Even though Kera is the main character, I almost always consider the hero my favorite in all the books I read. Vig was so "Viking". I loved that he loved Kera so much before death that he asked for her to become a crow after death. He was so patient, kind and thoughtful with her.
Which character – as performed by Johanna Parker – was your favorite?
Vig was my favorite voice done by Johanna. She has such a wonderful way with voices and gives each character their own personality.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
I loved that when Kera died that her last thoughts were for her dog. She did not want to be resurrected without Brody Hawaii.

Just not my cup of tea, I guess!
I struggled on how to rate this book. It’s well written, as well written as all of SL’s books. It’s just not the type of paranormal book I like. I struggled to get through this book because I found that my mind would wander and I’d have to back the book up because I was lost. I also don’t have a lot of knowledge about the Nordic Gods and Goddesses, so I had trouble keeping track of who was who.
I’m not sure if I’ll continue the series, if I decide to, it will be something I come back to.

Great Crow Book
Loved this story the performance of the book was great, but I do feel like there were some slight over pronunciation of some words and a forced raspy quality that I didnt care for. Overall the reading was good.

Wanted to love it but only kinda liked it
I really loved the Norse mythology angle. it's not something that happens a lot in urban fantasy. I actually liked being able to hear others points of views, but it would have been helpful if they were more clear on who's pov it was at any given time. It was a little confusing in some parts. Also, Kera was not what I expected and not in a good way. She came off as super entitled, spoiled, and controlling as all get out. her morals and her attitude didn't really match up. I'm going to risk buying the second book in the series because I do love the Norse mythology. 🤞🏻 It's a little less all over the place and Kera has calmed down some.
