Damned Souls and a Sangria (The Guild Codex: Spellbound Book 8) Kindle Edition
Now, I'm a pseudo mythic with the best bartending job in the world, the most amazing (and hot) best friends I never knew I needed, and a guild of misfit magic-users who've become my extended family.
And I'm about to lose it all.
In my desperation to save Ezra, I stumbled into a web of ruthless deception—and seriously pissed off a sleeping hydra. Now its every murderous head is turned toward me and my guild, and I don't know how to stop it. I'm not sure I can.
I'm not sure anyone can.
But if I don't, we're all doomed—Ezra, Aaron, Kai, and my beloved guild.

This expansive urban fantasy world includes four separate series: Spellbound, Demonized, Warped, and Unveiled.

SpellboundWhen feisty redhead Tori landed a job at a sketchy pub, she had no idea she'd just joined a magic guild. And the three guys she drenched with a margarita during her first shift? Yeah, they were mages. She's about to get a crash course in the world of magic and mythics. Hilarious and heartwarming, The Guild Codex: Spellbound is perfect for readers who enjoy sassy heroines, found family, underdogs, humorous banter, slow-burn romance, and a hidden-magic world so immersive you'll be watching for mythics on the streets. |
DemonizedWhen shy bookworm Robin found a hellish creature imprisoned in her uncle's basement, she never intended to make a contract with the rare, deadly demon. And their contract? His protection in exchange for... cookies. There's no way that could go wrong. Blending thrilling action with an irresistibly slow romance, The Guild Codex: Demonized is perfect for readers who enjoy heroines who grow into their strength, demons with attitude, unlikely partnerships, frequent doses of humor, and a love story spanning millennia. |
WarpedWhen psychic conman Kit is arrested, all he wants to do is escape. Instead, he finds himself partnered with by-the-books MagiPol agent Lienna and tasked with bringing down his ex-partner-in-crime. That might make escaping custody a tad more difficult. Explore the magical FBI of the mythic world, MagiPol, in The Guild Codex: Warped alongside their most unlikely new agent. This series is perfect for readers who love off-beat heroes, pop culture, hilarity, buddy-cop stories, and wicked cool psychic powers. |
UnveiledWhen ex-convict and incompetent witch Saber encounters the notorious Crystal Druid, she tries to kill him. Then she discovers a mysterious fae on a deadly rampage. Together, they have a chance to stop it—if she can resist stabbing her new ally. Delve into the dark, dangerous world of druids in The Guild Codex: Unveiled. This series is perfect for readers who enjoy a fierce, troubled heroine, intense banter, mysterious magic, otherworldly fae, and a heart-rending second-chance romance. |

About the author
Annette Marie is the best-selling author of The Guild Codex, an expansive collection of interwoven urban fantasy series ranging from thrilling adventure to hilarious hijinks to heartrending romance. Her other works include YA urban fantasy series Steel & Stone, its prequel trilogy Spell Weaver, and romantic fantasy trilogy Red Winter.
Her first love is fantasy, while fast-paced adventures and tantalizing forbidden romances are her guilty pleasures. She lives in the frozen winter wasteland of Alberta, Canada (okay, it's not quite that bad) with her husband and their furry minion of darkness—sorry, cat—Caesar. When not writing, she can be found elbow-deep in one art project or another while blissfully ignoring all adult responsibilities.

I’ve read her Spell Weaver and Steel and Stone series, and I am just amazed at her ability to write such detailed, enjoyable, and believable stories. Spellbound may be completed, but Annette has moved on to other new series set in the same world. She’s already released the first book- Warping Minds and Other Misdemeanors (The Guild Codex: Warped Book 1), and I, for one, cannot wait to read The One and Only Crystal Druid (The Guild Codex: Unveiled Book 1) when it releases next year. Don’t let the tags of New Adult and College Fantasy deter you- I’m retired, and these books grab and hold your attention as well as any other “adult” author. Kudos to Annette Marie for being such a talented woman, able to illustrate her characters, and write their stories. I can’t wait for her next release!
I’m torn about this conclusion. Tori is almost overshadowed in this book by all the other strong well-developed characters. Her character development stalls in all the frantic action and focus on others. Mostly, Tori’s role seems to be to recover her people and weapons; both of which are just handed to her. I like that one of these opportunistic weapons is her absent magic, in a return to the clever victories that define this series. But I expected more about Tori confronting her lack of magic and acceptance in a magic world. Somehow all the action without this evolution feels a little empty.
The plot is exciting as all the key characters from both this and the Demonised series return for this final clash. I was thrilled to see Zac back. The male characters in this are heart-breaking; Ezra’s demon half and Zac in particular.
I like that this series is more adult than others from Marie, as signalled by the alcohol theme in the book names. There is finally some romance in this book, but it’s still a minor part to this mostly young adult action adventure.
Four stars for a satisfying conclusion for the plot and happy endings for many characters, but missing something for the over-shadowed heroine.

But The Guild Codex series, is definitely my favorite, Spellbound or Demonized, really I loved them all and can't wait for the next book to come out! The world she create with this series has it's own special twist of fun, supernatural mystery and suspense action we get addicted to sooOO easily! Add to that how much we get attached to those characters she comes up with throughout their various exciting adventures. Plus I really like how she comes up with these sub series all working together inside The Guild Codex, bringing us along in new adventures and making us fall for those characters we had just met in Spellbound.
Thank you Annette Marie for all your great books!
Annette Marie paints her characters in a way, that makes them seem like people one could actually know, and so you feel for each and every one of their battles, bleed and cry with them and hope against hope that everything will turn out alright in the end.
