 The Book Junkie Reads . . . Review of . . . SKIN CURSE (Gate Cycle, #2) . . .   In my personal observations during this listen, I would have needed to have either read or listened to the first installment of this series. I found a few places that I got lost or maybe a bit confused. I did enjoy the intricacies of the gate.  Azzy, her brother, and their friends were all at an disadvantage with an overlord that was strange, confusing, secretive, and a bit omnus. 

Amie lent her voice to make things feel more real and visual flowing. I found section of the story that I could not be torn away from. Then others that I had to go back a few paces to work things out in my head. This was a fantasy world filled, but would I really want to live there. 

I received this audiobook as part of my participation in a blog tour with Audiobookworm Promotions. The tour is being sponsored by Kristin Jacques. The gifting of this audiobook did not affect my opinion of it. 




The Children of the Gate wait for the call to Rise. 

Azzy Brimvine knows her brother is in the vast city of Avergard. She must find him, but time is not on their side. 

In the House of Seven Smiles, Azzy struggles to understand the constraints and limits of her power. She finds the whispering voices that guided her for so long, suddenly silent. The enigmatic Lord Wallach is both a frustrating ally and a dangerous mystery, and a strange entity lurks among the household servants. The haven Azzy sought may not be as safe as she thought...but is anywhere truly safe in the Above? 

The city of Avergard is full of monsters and secrets, and a dark history festers at its root. A yawning pit nestles in the house of a scheming lord, who will use Armin's dangerous gifts to raise history, and raze the city to the ground. As Azzy finds herself and her brother pulled into these machinations, she must navigate the politics and society of Avergard's brutal ruling class to save her family and friends before the Gate consumes them all.
