The Nemesis Chronicles #1
Minutes to Midnight
Mythics... Creatures and beings of legend, possessing extraordinary abilities. Once thought of as merely stories, they've learned to blend into society to survive. Until someone decides to tip that balance.
Amazons... Morgan, an outcast searching for answers that will unravel the mystery that led to her exile from the only family she's ever known.
Vikings... Dirk, a renowned courtesan in the city of sin, forced to choose between the life he has and what could be.
Nemesis... A group of powerful Mythics determined to find out who is behind the rash of random transformations, before chaos grips the city.
Together, they must stop what's coming, before what happens in Vegas…changes everything.

Enjoyable debut from this husband and wife pair of authors. It was nice to see a fresh approach regarding magic and mythical creatures, rather than the same old thing over and over again. From a personal standpoint, I'm not often a fan of books in which the narration switches between multiple characters. However, because of the connection between Dirk and Morgan, the two main characters, it works well.
As an avid fan of mythology, I loved seeing Amazons brought forward into modern times. I thought the development of the main characters in particular, was excellent; both their strengths and weaknesses (and I don't mean magically). In addition to a little more development of some of the other characters, in future books, I'd like to see a little more history about this world, and the Mythics, Amazons and Vikings that inhabit it.
All in all, I enjoyed it, and I am looking forward to the next book.

I listened to the free audiobook at podiobooks.com
Very well written (and cool) story and excellent narration. Both on a professional level.
The mythical/fantasy/Las Vegas - scenario is exactly my taste.
I hope that the sequel will be available as an audiobook too.
