Commentary As Books Born of Hatred (Hellequin Chronicles #2)
There was a time when Nathan Garrett was feared. When the mention of his name was enough to stop his enemies in their tracks. That time has long since passed.When Nathan’s friend asks for help investigating a pattern of horrific crimes, he reluctantly agrees. But his investigation leads to a serial killer who is something more, or less, than human, a creature of pure malevolence and hatred.
There are some things that even a 1600-year-old sorcerer hesitates to challenge. But when evil targets those Nathan cares about, his enemies will discover exactly who Nathan used to be. And why they will learn to fear him once more.
Born of Hatred is an action-packed, Urban Fantasy set in modern-day England with historical flashbacks to late nineteenth century Montana. It’s the second book of the Hellequin Chronicles, following the widely praised Crimes Against Magic, which introduced sorcerer Nathan Garrett.

Born of HatredThe Hellequin Chronicles, Book 2By: Steve McHughNarrated by: James LangtonThis continues the great series. Boy, it is really getting wild! He is getting his memories back and the shit is hitting the fan! Again, the author has two stories going at the same time and again it is for a reason. Both stories are awesome. So much creativity in these stories! I am so enthralled! Love these characters! The narrator is great, the emotions and voices are totally awesome!I have missed Nate so much!Born of Hatred is about Nate being recruited by his friend Thomas and asked to work on a case about releasing a certain prisoner. Their team dynamic is amazing and I love they work together to solve problems. We do get to meet Olivia, who is Thomas's lover, and their daughter. I kind of liked Olivia but I honestly just wanted to read all about Nate. Then the whole mystery part of this book. The Lich, which is a creature that Nate is afraid of. I can see why he was
2.5 stars. Had all the same issues as with book 1. It just feels like there is a huge void where Nate's personality should be.
The retired assassin for Merlin is back with a story that begins in the Wild West, leads to a micro-zombie apocalypse, and ends with the hunt for a serial killer lich in the modern era. The Hellequin Chronicles are dark, sexy, and fun. They're a hard R urban fantasy series that features our protagonist as a brutal killer who murders, sleeps, and spells his way through history. He's a hardass and reminds me a lot of Geralt from the Witcher series. If you happen to like Anita Blake (before the
This one comes very close to getting the full 5 star rating. I say this up front so you know, I really like it.I do want to mention that it takes a little while to get rolling. Our "hero" Nathan Garrett "woke up" in the last book of this series (the first book of the series...I know the first book is the last book I read before this book. Getting a bit confusing). Anyway Nathan woke up...not knowing who he is...or was...or has been, so to speak.Anyway he had amnesia. So he's still putting clues
*****No Spoilers*****So let me start off by saying I would actually give this second installment of the Hellequin Chronicles a 4 stars review if I could. The only thing I can complain about is the editing. Editing is usually not a sticking point for me but double double words, tenses being off, and sentences that didnt flow correctly pulled me back to reality a few times which bummed me out. With that being said, I am really just being nitpicky about a seriously kick a** book. I anxiously
Once again the potential of this series is what brought me to the second book in the series, but once again I am torn as to how I feel about it. There are a *lot* of typos misspellings and change errors in this book. I don't know who checked for these things, but they did a terrible job (unless the original manuscript was really brimming with errors...) It actually became annoying while reading and I was glad I didn't pay full price for this book.There is still definitely a decent level of
