Delivering Evil for Experts - Annette Marie

Tantor Audio, 2021,  9.6 hours
Read by: Cris Dukehart and Teddy Hamilton
Listened to: September 2025, age 47 
 
The Guild Codex: Demonized book 4 
 
This was a real let-down after the fantastic end to the Spellbound thread.  Most of the book was playing catch-up, showing the same events of  Damned Souls and a Sangria through different eyes.  From here, it seems like Damned Souls, Delivering Evil, and the next Kit Morris book should have been wrapped together in an 'Avengers'-style trilogy, interweaving all three threads within one narrative.  Basically by here, none of it would make that much sense without the other threads anyway - might as well lean into it.  It would have smoothed out some of the redundancy as well.
 
I was happy when this book was over - enough flogging the horse, it died last book.  Not that this one was bad, but the structure made it anticlimactic.
