Publisher's summary

Cass Clereaux is good at two things: finding treasure and killing demons. Lying low is a close third - but not because she wants to be good at hiding. Cass is a FireSoul, one of the unlucky few to inherit a piece of a dragon's soul. On the surface, the perks are sweet - she has the power to find and steal any type of magical treasure, including the powers of other supernaturals.

But it doesn't come without a price; stealing powers requires that she kill, and others would destroy her if they discover what she is. In a world full of magic, hiding her powers is the only way to survive. Finding magical artifacts is the only ways to pay the bills. But it's a dangerous job when you can't use your magic.

When Aidan Merrick, the most powerful shifter in the city, hires her to find an ancient scroll, she doesn't want to take the job. His immense amount of power reminds her of too much of murky memories from a past she can't remember. But she has no choice. The scroll will reveal what she is. And if anyone finds out, she's dead.

Ancient Magic features kick-butt heroines, a hot hero, and otherworldly adventure.

great first book in a hopefully amazing sires!

Ancient Magic: Dragon's Gift: The Huntress, Book 1
Omg this a great book! its chalked full of magic, supernatural and great friendship, and maybe new love.
The story starts when 3 girls wake up i and have memory of their past, or even their names.
Cass is the main character and the story is pretty much told by her. She has found out that she is a Fire soul. You find out that they are not very likable, and if they are caught, she will be thrown in jail for being one. Fire souls Kill other supernaturals for their powers and are very dangerous.
But Cass is not like that, and she tires to keep her self hidden as she and her 2 “sisters” go though life hidden and using other types of magic so others do not catch on.
She is a treasure hunter, and very good at it. This is how she makes her money. There are not many items she can not find for her clients. She also runs a little magic shop with her sisters that pass the time when she is not hunting things down for he clients.
Then she meets Aiden. she totally has the hots for him, and feels amazing when he is around her. he’s very powerful and she can feel that when he is around her. Aiden hires Cass to help him find a treasure that he has been looking for. its a very powerful list of people and their magic skills. She takes the job but has to make sure she doesn’t let her crush for him get in the way of doing her job, and making sure her name, and her sisters is not on that list!.

the narrator did an excellent job bringing this story to life! she actually fit case for well!
am looking forward to getting book 2 of this sores. I can’t wait to see what happens.

Excellent Series Start

This was an excellent start to a series. It was Lara Croft with magic. The action is constant and the narration was perfect.

lacking depth

I've read the book and loved it. I thought I would listen to it, however the narrator lacks depth. her voice has no real emotion to it no articulation, it's a flat read, making it hard to stay with it.

Great new series.

The story and performance are great. Always like the magic books. Characters are well established and books flows nicely until the end when you are left hanging way before expected. The reason I rated it 4 star overall is because the last 50 minutes are devoted to the next book which I plan to buy anyway. If people like the first book they will buy the second, if they don't like it, giving them a preview will not help.
