On the contrary my dear, thanks for WRITING. You are one of my favourite authors☺. PS: love the startreck reference, i also remember that episode! Haha)
I am curious how this new way ( well new to me) of publishing works. I see you are both the author and the one who has the TH-cam channel. I also see you publish your stories on kindle ( I believe that's Ebooks ) and trough audio. Is this a modern variant on publishing independently or semi-independently ?
@@spiritualanarchist8162 Yeah, I'm independent for the most part. Most of my audiobook series are through a publisher though, so I can't put those on TH-cam, but I paid for the production of these and have the full rights to do whatever I wish. Experimenting with TH-cam currently! :)
@@LindsayBurokerWrites Great initiative ! And i will look into this process. I got curious because i only have a little experience with publishing in the 90thies , and it was...Difficult to use an understatement! .And one had to sell a lot to even make some money out of it. Especially because one was( obviously ) limited to printed publications only. I see the ocasional self produced euhm experiments. But i noticed you have narration. and you sell trough Amazon & Kindle etc ,etc. Looks very professional .Anyway. I hope your strategy works out for you . Have a creative new year .😇
Absolutely loved it! The women characters are portrayed as badass, strong, and capable but not too overdone. I listened to it all in two days! Thank you so much!
This is my second time listening to this series thus far. I was so excited to find a series that I could listen to openly. Both my kids love this series too, so yeah, we will listen to it a few times. My daughter was inspired and started writing.
I could not believe that it’s a full audiobook absolutely free. I thought that either of the reading or the story would be substandard, but it’s terrific! I will definitely be listening to more of your stories, and now that I know how good you are, I will pick up some of your books on Kindle as well. Thank you for your generosity!
I often come back to this series it’s one of few things that I never get tired of listening to! No matter the chaos this series relaxes me and lets me forget my worries for a while! Thank you so much for posting you work here, this is by far one of the best book series I’ve had the opportunity to stumble across!
Thank you so much from the UK for this wonderful series, Val is so strong and witty and as an older reader I love that she's over 40. I am so happy I found your audiobooks, such great writing, involving characters and a terrific reader. All the best to you.
I am halfway through this book. And I will be buying the rest. Audio of course. I am a truck driver and its always nice to hear an awesome story. Thank you for making such a great story. Definitely has made me laugh more then I thought I would.
THANK YOU , 4 POSTING THESE FREE STORIES . I AM GOING BLIND AND CAN BARELEY SEE NY KEYS TO TYPE .I HAVE YOU ON MY BOOKS TO NUY LIST FOR MY FAMILY TO BUY 4 ME . THANK YOU !
you do not have the free audio set up the foundation gives out? the weirdly shaped cassettes , anything you like free of charge . the foundation for the blind , my ex girlfriend is blind , they helped her a lot , all free . you also get free postage if you write "reasons of the blind" on the envelope.
This has been such a fun way to spend a quiet Christmas Eve, thank you! THIS is my favorite brand of UF - badass, witty, hardcore, and plenty of magical action, without falling into heavy PR territory. So good!
I absolutely love this book ❤ Excellent storyline and the voice actor was also incredible. Can't wait to start book 2. Thank you for uploading these 🙏🏼
Escaping from life in fantasy for a bit, I'm in pain a lot of the time so I sort of distracts my mind I can read my right eye still works but audio is easier 😏
I am so happy to have found this although it popped into my feed the morning after a phonecon about the genre that was evidentally overheard! I'm only a few hours in, and bought the audio version to listen to on phone. Happy to note its a series. Writing good, with a wisecracking heroine, interesting world building, good editing, and fast paced so far. So excited for new author of Thea Harrison/Nalini Singh calibre but fresh and different. Thank you for posting!!
Thanks so much for checking it out and picking up the audiobook, Tanya! And too funny about the phone conversation. I often feel like the search algos are listening in to me too. Our new AI-powered stalker world, haha.
I love how the female leading characters are on the mature side.. Over thirty, hell yeah! I just finished reading ''agents of the crown serie'' which i enjoyed immensly. But this is my fav serie. And i wish i could forget it soon , jst so i can re-listen to it. :p which won't be happening any soon.
Thank you Roh!! I love everything about Lindsay's writing - the characters, the dialogue, the world-building, the storylines, the slow-building romantic chemistries, the insanely difficult to pronounce dragon names/elven words/sword commands/etc etc/everything else impossible to pronounce that comes from Lindsay's unbridled imagination...
I’m on my second go through..... granted parts of the first I was sleeping. I really am liking it. I am so glad to find another book in the PNW. I’m excited to find a character that is bad ass and over the age of 30. I’m greatly enjoying the sass in this book.
This is one of the best books I have ever listened to. Such incredible writing it is a total pleasure and I am an absolute fan of these incredible books I want to hear all you have written God bless you and all you love and all who visit this page, Father Charles Anderson
I really want her and Harry Dresden to team up. Oh just thinking about the snarky verbal duels they could have while their weapons and charms cut down the bad guys.lol
Excellent opener to a new urban fantasy series. I can't wait to see how the female lead 'thaws' this cold harsh dragon over the course of this series. This is a new author for me but she is on my favorites list now and I can't wait to pick up Book 2.
Thank you for making a character who is tall. It's not often I get to read about women my height/built plus the story is great! I have added you to my authors list and looking forward to reading more.🐯😁
Ok Lindsay you now have me hooked on a new series of books and characters. Grrrr! Just kidding loved the book and once I finish the last two flash gold books I will get battle bonded.
You have inspired me, and for this I thank you. The narrator's voice is calming and pleasing to the ear. I will leave a more detailed review at a future date after I have listened to the whole series (I listen overnight when sleeping, starting an hour later on the same book each sleep cycle so I am conscious through the content)
Thank you! Just starting this series. I listened to the first 3 books In the "Agents of the Crown" series, which led me to buying the last two volumes for my kindle app. Great books!
Sharing this awesome channel with my daughter, she just told me she really enjoys urban fantasy audiobook's. I know she'll love these books. Thank you Lindsay Buroker.
Really nice story , easy to get involved with the characters ,I'm going to buy the next one to see how the characters are developing, I'm a big fan of fantasy , almost read them all:) , keep up the good work .
I spent years on capital hill while in college… thank you for bringing me back to Seattle in this story. Flashbacks of smelling coffee roasting mixed with the struggle to find parallel parking. 🚙🚗🛻🚙 ☕️ all the way back to the tales of a kraken in lake Washington as kid. 🦑💙
This book series is awesome! I found it at random and I'm definitely glad I did. I'll have to checkout your other series too! 🤦♀️🤦♀️ That therapist scene made me cringe though, I've been around some like that. I also have a bunch of military family too so most therapists are used to military quirks (Or we just stright up mention it to begin with lol)
I don't really like fantasy books, but this one kept my attention! I kept telling myself just one more chapter! Thanks for the upload. I'm going to purchase a forever copy!
I just finished this audio book... I loved it... I will be buying the rest of the series so i can have a forever copy... @LindsayBuroker is gonna become one of my new favorite authors!
@@LindsayBurokerWrites from a mans perspective i can agree... She's my kind of girl☺ ( though my MOST fave female character was in emperor's edge series😀)
My wife and I just went to Seattle for our first anniversary! It was awesome to see all the places you mentioned in your book! Really felt like I could see Val’s world through her eyes.
That's pretty awesome! I'll have to add those to my list. Lol I've listened to the books a lot but haven't retained the names of the areas (I can see 7 books of homework before traveling)
I found this accidentally too and I am really enjoying it. The characters are great...the tiger is hysterical as is the dour dragon. Its really really good, she is a great heroine and I could listen to much more of this. Thank you for the upload! I may very well take you up on the forever copies...This is my new favourite...I liked Alex Versus and didnt really get into the Dresden ones but Val is my type of heroine and she has the kind of funny, interesting encounters that will keep me happy until my broken arm heals and the cast comes off leaving me able to read again! Thanks to the author and I will pick up physical copies as soon as I can hold a book! Obviously I liked and subbed too! This is so good of you because the story is way better than many I have paid for!
Thank you so much, what a treat for the ears really! 😍 I'd like to recommend the audiobook Noara: The Last Moon. It's THE most accomplished audio production I've ever heard. Everything is perfect - the cast, the voices, the soundscape - it's fascinating! Enjoy!
The venom glands of octopus and squid are located on the posterior of their mouths, would kraken venom glands not be similarly located? If so, to obtain kraken venom one would of necessity have to put one's hands into the posterior of the kraken's mouth.
My first urban fantasy, and I absolutely LOVED the protagonist. Definitely interested to see if more backstory that’s been hinted at here gets explored. It’s been awhile since I’ve read a story where the protagonist is also older than me...the ex-husband and distant daughter surprised me, but it’s actually central to why she keeps people away at arm’s length.
The Kate Daniels series is a fantastic read if you haven't read it yet. This series is similar, so if you like this, you'll probably love Ilona Andrews. The first book of the series is Magic Bites.
Amazing 👏 I'm listening to these for the third time. I wish I could afford the rest of the series. Thank you so much for allowing us all to enjoy these. You are a talented author and stoy teller.
I live in Portland Oregon in Pacific NW. Its super cool hearing places i know and have even been to! Creative writing and great story telling. Will be recommending these books to everyone! Love them ❤
Thank you I loved your story, I am born and raised in Seattle, still here , it's quite nice ta hear you saying streets and neighborhoods I know of well .
I'm delighted by this book!! Laughing out loud for real. I'm 5 hours in and I've already recommended it to all my book loving friends ❤️💕❤️ So happy there are more books in this series
If the author herself is looking for something funny and inventive to listen to I highly recommend the Werewolves Are Assholes series! Audiobooks are free here on TH-cam
I really loved this book💟Thanks so much. There's only a few authors that make me feel like I know each character to the extent that when the book ends I'm allways a little sad that it's ended .Now onto book two.Stay Safe🐈⬛🙏
Again thank you. listening for the second time in 4 days! I also looked up you web site and giggled like mad , about the tiger and the box! I had a Maine Coon boy who was addicted to paper shopping bags! Used skid across the lino floor to attack them, make caves of them and do 'I am a cave lion, that gazelle is mine!' (usually the floor mop!) Any idea how difficult it is to mop a floor with a 15kg cat disemboweling his prey? Another cat (boy) who used to pack himself everytime I had to go away for work, check suitcase for cat. He was also my attack cat... lol.. nobody was allowed near me when beast feeding my son. The dogs ae also fun, the Great Dane played football (well rugby). the Karacachans really like body sledging in snow. Apologies, but you made me SMILE... I have neighbours who remind me of some of your characters.
Aw, thanks for listening and for checking out the bonus scene! I'm going to try to get one up for Christmas too. Cats and boxes/bags are the best. Check out this video from Big Cat Rescue if you haven't seen it before: th-cam.com/video/J11uu8L8FTY/w-d-xo.html
She should have named the gun Mjolnar. Since silver and copper are similar chemically and physically, silver should replace copper as a jacket material for bullets and make only a minuscule difference. On the other hand, a silver jacketed bullet should be just as effective against magicals as a bullet made completely of silver, which would have less mass then a bullet of lead with a copper or silver jacket.
I overall presentation of this book is good enough to have me consider purchasing the series and I also love that the heroine is older and not of the YA crowd. The maturity is welcoming.
Thank you for making this available, can I just say I absolutely love this narrator! 😍 I thoroughly enjoyed the Emperor's Edge audiobooks read by her and am excited to start this series now. 😊
I hope you are also consider getting a Patreon page. There are times when I can’t necessarily afford to buy books because I’m doing a lot of things but I will certainly subscribe to Patreon for you because your books should be paid for. It might be a way to help those of us on a fixed income acknowledge and contribute to And for your work
Hi, Kevin! I actually have a Patreon page with a $1 level if that's something you're interested in. Thanks for wanting to support! :) www.patreon.com/lindsayburoker
I totally agree with you I'm an avid reader and buy most of my book's from charity shop's then donate them when I've read them a few times it helps a lot of people and it makes me feel good Hopefully you can do this and save some money Take care stay safe and well bye from wet and rainy Bedford 🇬🇧 KAZ 😊😘
Super excited to find your TH-cam. I collected all of the fallen empire series on audible when I could still afford it, and this will be the next series I work on. Thanks for being badass and real.
I think you're a really talented writer. I also want to thank you for putting these up for free because that shows a great love of your fans. Wanted to say your editor needs a greater eye for detail because there's a number of (little) plot holes throughout that kept tripping me up. Thanks for introducing us to this world. Oh, and the narrator you chose is brilliant!

Same here.
I Know! That ONE singular character flaw makes her so relatable! No honestly though, she's a hot mess and talks a lot of shit I love it too.
As a lifelong asthmatic, it is very relatable.

One of my favorite series that I have ever read.. Fantastic narrator really brought the personality of the main character to life.
Loved!😊😊
I read these first on Kindle and now just found this audio! Enjoying it all over again. WOWZERS.
I love how the female leading characters are on the mature side.. Over thirty, hell yeah! I just finished reading ''agents of the crown serie'' which i enjoyed immensly. But this is my fav serie. And i wish i could forget it soon , jst so i can re-listen to it. :p which won't be happening any soon.
Thanks for listening! Maybe I'm blessed to have a poor memory. I can re-read my favorites every few years, haha.
I love a 40's protagonist, too, also her health issues - they make her really relatable.
Thank you for saying it. Yes, so good to have an adult heroine who is fallible. I can only take so many 24 year olds with the perky-ness happening.
I was entertained and LOVED the Reader.

The venom glands of octopus and squid are located on the posterior of their mouths, would kraken venom glands not be similarly located? If so, to obtain kraken venom one would of necessity have to put one's hands into the posterior of the kraken's mouth.
I love the writing style and also the reading voices for the characters are fantastic!
My first urban fantasy, and I absolutely LOVED the protagonist. Definitely interested to see if more backstory that’s been hinted at here gets explored. It’s been awhile since I’ve read a story where the protagonist is also older than me...the ex-husband and distant daughter surprised me, but it’s actually central to why she keeps people away at arm’s length.
The Kate Daniels series is a fantastic read if you haven't read it yet. This series is similar, so if you like this, you'll probably love Ilona Andrews. The first book of the series is Magic Bites.
Thank you so much for allowing us to read your wonderful book. You've won a huge fan. Now I'll have to find all your books and enjoy them all.
Amazing 👏 I'm listening to these for the third time. I wish I could afford the rest of the series. Thank you so much for allowing us all to enjoy these. You are a talented author and stoy teller.
I live in Portland Oregon in Pacific NW. Its super cool hearing places i know and have even been to! Creative writing and great story telling. Will be recommending these books to everyone! Love them ❤
Great book! Thank you for sharing🍀
You're welcome!
Awesome. I've been wanting to try your urban fantasy stuff. :)
Thanks for checking it out, Ubriel!

Great series! I will be ordering the hardback copies from Amazon👍
Awesome! Thank you!
I stumbled upon your books and I'm loving it. Thank you
I'm delighted by this book!! Laughing out loud for real. I'm 5 hours in and I've already recommended it to all my book loving friends ❤️💕❤️ So happy there are more books in this series
If the author herself is looking for something funny and inventive to listen to I highly recommend the Werewolves Are Assholes series! Audiobooks are free here on TH-cam
Oh and THANK YOU for providing this work for free and without ad breaks 👏👏👏
I really loved this book💟Thanks so much. There's only a few authors that make me feel like I know each character to the extent that when the book ends I'm allways a little sad that it's ended .Now onto book two.Stay Safe🐈⬛🙏
Again thank you.
listening for the second time in 4 days!
I also looked up you web site and giggled like mad , about the tiger and the box!
I had a Maine Coon boy who was addicted to paper shopping bags! Used skid across the lino floor to attack them, make caves of them and do 'I am a cave lion, that gazelle is mine!' (usually the floor mop!) Any idea how difficult it is to mop a floor with a 15kg cat disemboweling his prey?
Another cat (boy) who used to pack himself everytime I had to go away for work, check suitcase for cat. He was also my attack cat... lol.. nobody was allowed near me when beast feeding my son.
The dogs ae also fun, the Great Dane played football (well rugby). the Karacachans really like body sledging in snow.
Apologies, but you made me SMILE... I have neighbours who remind me of some of your characters.
Aw, thanks for listening and for checking out the bonus scene! I'm going to try to get one up for Christmas too.
Cats and boxes/bags are the best. Check out this video from Big Cat Rescue if you haven't seen it before: th-cam.com/video/J11uu8L8FTY/w-d-xo.html
This was such a great read. I laughed a lot and enjoyed the storyline. Will be starting book 2 and picking up my own copies ASAP.
Cheers
She should have named the gun Mjolnar.
Since silver and copper are similar chemically and physically, silver should replace copper as a jacket material for bullets and make only a minuscule difference. On the other hand, a silver jacketed bullet should be just as effective against magicals as a bullet made completely of silver, which would have less mass then a bullet of lead with a copper or silver jacket.
"a scintillating drama with romantic elements" .... yes, these are .... THANK YOU for sharing
I overall presentation of this book is good enough to have me consider purchasing the series and I also love that the heroine is older and not of the YA crowd. The maturity is welcoming.
Listened to these last year and now is a good time to do it again!
Thank you for making this available, can I just say I absolutely love this narrator! 😍 I thoroughly enjoyed the Emperor's Edge audiobooks read by her and am excited to start this series now. 😊
It's strange and wonderful how different this book is from the others in the series, while also setting up everything that comes after.
This was a GREAT book!! I'm so glad I got to hear it :) a friend had recommended it to me, and I can't wait to start book 2!
Thank you~!
The Princess Bride was the first thing I thought of when I heard the gun's name! 😂 Loving the book!
I hope you are also consider getting a Patreon page.

It might be a way to help those of us on a fixed income acknowledge and contribute to And for your work

I totally agree with you I'm an avid reader and buy most of my book's from charity shop's then donate them when I've read them a few times it helps a lot of people and it makes me feel good Hopefully you can do this and save some money Take care stay safe and well bye from wet and rainy Bedford 🇬🇧 KAZ 😊😘
Super excited to find your TH-cam. I collected all of the fallen empire series on audible when I could still afford it, and this will be the next series I work on. Thanks for being badass and real.
Great story..Ive heard this narrator many times..shes very good
I'm loving this book. I can't wait to listen to the series while I'm at work.
I think you're a really talented writer. I also want to thank you for putting these up for free because that shows a great love of your fans. Wanted to say your editor needs a greater eye for detail because there's a number of (little) plot holes throughout that kept tripping me up. Thanks for introducing us to this world. Oh, and the narrator you chose is brilliant!
This book was incredible, the author amazing. I enjoyed every moment of this story. Thanks for posting 😊
