THE BLACK BIRD ORACLE All Souls Series, Book 5

Narrator Jennifer Ikeda reintroduces listeners to power couple Diana and Matthew de Claremont, witch and vampire, and their equally magical children. The couple first appeared in A DISCOVERY OF WITCHES. When a black bird brings Diana a message, she heads to Ravenswood, her Aunt Gwyneth's property in Massachusetts, to uncover the dark side of her magic. Ikeda brings every corner of Ravenswood to life, pointing out its marshes, barns, and haunted woods in warm, wondrous tones. Every creature--whether human, witch, vampire, demon, or specter--has a unique voice, and conversations are always clear for listeners, even when Harkness's story falters. Fans of the novels will relish Ikeda's verbal world-building and character profiles. Her narration illuminates the shadowy paths Diana now chooses to tread.
