Set in the same world as Faith Hunter's New York Times best-selling Jane Yellowrock novels, the fourth Soulwood novel stars Nell Ingram, who channels her power from the Earth.

Nell can draw magic from the land around her, and lately she's been using it to help the Psy-Law Enforcement Division, which solves paranormal crimes. Joining the team at PsyLED has allowed her to learn more about her powers and the world she always shunned - and to find true friends.

Head agent Rick LaFleur shifts into a panther when the moon calls him, but this time, something has gone wrong. Rick calls Nell from a riverbank - he's naked, with no memory of how he came to be there, and there's a dead black cat, sacrificed in a witch circle and killed by black magic, lying next to him.

Then more animals turn up dead, and team rushes to investigate. A blood-witch is out to kill. But when it seems as if their leader is involved in the crime, the bonds that hold the team together could shatter at any moment.

I'm thoroughly enjoying this series. I like the story, characters, and excellent narration. I particularly like all the plant related aspects and the narrator's accents. The plants bring a sense of freshness to this series, which as a gardener, I particularly enjoy and appreciate! I've bought all the previous and will purchase the next one.

Love this book and the overall series :) cant wait for the next sequel of these series or jane yellowrick ones. P. S. I love how the two are intertwined :)

Great story!

Soulwood story continues . Well written and beautifully narrated - as usual.
Listen to book 1 first to get the most from this book although there are “ recaps” within the story for anyone listening to this book first .
It’s a pleasure to be able to listen to a complete series via Audible UK as it frequently only has an incomplete series - sooo frustrating!
However this is again a book that easily carries the listener along in the developing saga that is Nell Ingram and Soulwood . Roll on to the next book of Soulwood or in the Jane Yellowrock series ..Well worth the credit !!

Fantastic yet again

I am a huge Faith Hunter fan, but have always been a reader rather than a listener until recently. The narrator has a strong accent, which if you are used to listening to audio books read by Stephen Fry etc will sound odd to begin with. But once you are a chapter or so in, her lovely voice blends with the brilliant pictures painted in the book and really brings it to life. If you enjoy urban fantasy, do try any (indeed, ALL) of Faith Hunter's works. This is a spin off from the Yellowrock series, but can be read as standalone.

Great story, great narration

You can’t drop into this cold – you have to read the preceding 3 books to understand what’s going on. Reading the more recent (as in 2017/2018) Jane Yellowrock books will probably also help, but I’m behind on those, and didn’t suffer for it, just wondered what the devil had been happening down New Orlean’s way!
The books have all had a strong storyline involving non-human problems and mischief making, all involving Psy-LED 18, with its witch, empath, two weres and human hacker, but it’s Nell who shines in all the books, making her way from an apparently human woman, living on the edge, threatened, alone - a recluse - to a capable non-human, beginning to find peace with herself and those around her. The long slow love story continues without any silly obstacles or bumps in the road, although in this book poor old Oakum (or Occum) is on his own journey back from death by fire in the previous book.
You need patience; the author takes her time here, but it’s well worth the patience. I did feel Tandy’s Lichtenberg lines were over mentioned – we were told about them several times as if for the first time, but that’s a very small niggle. Beautifully read as ever by Khristie Hvam, complete with Appalachian back woods accents when Nell drops into “church speak” and “dang nabbits”.
The storyline is a doozy, black magic, a powerful, old curse, a revenge served very cold, something very dark and awful, a new boss (courtesy of those missing Jane Yellowrock books I think), Mindy, the vampire tree that clearly sees itself as something very different, and powerful, blood-hungry Soulwood with its massive trees and deep, deep calm.
This is an excellent series by a competent author, who creates and develops strong female characters without emasculating the men around.

Excellent continuation of Nell’s journey
