Publisher's Summary
I’m Val Thorvald, and I’m an assassin.
When magical bad guys hurt people, I take care of them. Permanently.
This doesn’t make me popular with the rest of the magical community — as you can tell from the numerous break-ins and assassination attempts I’ve endured over the years. But thanks to my half-elven blood, a powerful sword named Chopper, and a telepathic tiger with an attitude, I’ve always been able to handle my problems with aplomb. Maybe some cursing and swearing, too, but definitely aplomb.
That changes when my boss is afflicted with a mysterious disease, a government agent starts investigating me, and a godforsaken dragon shows up in the middle of my latest job.
I’ve taken down vampires, zombies, and ogres, but dragons are way, way more powerful. And it doesn’t look like this one is going to like me.
Worse than that, he wants to use his magic to compel me to do his bidding, as if I’m some weak-minded minion.
That’s not going to happen. I’d die before being some dragon’s slave.
But if I can’t figure out a way to avoid him, save my boss, and get rid of the government spook, I’m screwed. Or dead. Or screwed and dead. And that’s never comfortable.
Pick up Sentient Magic today to see if I make it. Even if you don’t care about me, I promise the tiger is cool.

Increase the speed
The book is entertaining, but I had to increase the narrators speed to 1.2x’s or else it drove me crazy. Faster paced was fine to listen to.

Draconic
Surprised by this one. I like the plot. I like the support characters and hope a few of them appear in future stories. The MC is great with a nice balance between her strength and many flaws. I look forward to the next in the series.

Loved the series, another excellent fantasy series by Lindsay
I have enjoyed all of Lindsay's fantasy series collections and this one is just as good as all the rest! Have listened to the whole series and loved it! Vivienne is a fantastic narrator, really brings the characters to life and she is so emotive and expressive. The main characters have all had such personality and relatability in her works.
