Publisher's summary

Death was only the beginning.

No one's afterlife is as depressing as Audrey's - at least that's what she believes after waking up dead without her memories and being promptly assigned to hunt demons for the rest of eternity. She's convinced there's been a cosmic mistake; after all, she'd rather discuss the color of her nails than break them on angelic weapons. It doesn't help that her trainer, Logan, is as infuriating as he is attractive.

When an ancient weapon of unparalleled power chooses Audrey as its wielder, attracting the attention of the ruler of Hell, Logan is the only one she can trust. With the Satan's eyes now fixed on Audrey, a battle for the safety of the living looms in the shadows.

Fans of The Mortal Instruments, Supernatural, and This Present Darkness won’t want to miss this epic story of unfailing love and adventure.

Angel and Demon Battle

Audrey wakes up- to find herself dead. With no memories of her past or what happened to her, she tries her best to fit into this strange new afterworld she now part of. When she is assigned the job of being a Hunter to hunt down the demons roaming earth, she is pretty sure she is in the wrong place. No matter how hard she trains, it seems that she has no real fighting skills, but he biggest talent is making her stoic trainer Logan irritated. But what Audrey does not know is that she has a larger role in this world than she ever could have guessed- and war is coming.

I have seriously been eyeballing Julie's books for forever, I even know the firsts in multiple series, I just had not had the chance to read one yet so when the opportunity to listen to Huntress occurred I was so excited. The pacing of the story made this very easy to get lost in the plot, I ending up reading it in a day because I was so curious about everything and I wanted answers (patience is not my strong suit). I rooted for Audrey and her headstrong ways and I was crossing my fingers for a romance that seems pretty doomed at the moment (but I have hope!). The world Julie made was really interesting, being almost magic while at the same time having the undercurrent of religion and faith, and her version of demons was scary and realistic. Overall this was a great start to an otherworldy urban fantasy-esque series.

I listened to the audiobook and I think the narrator did a great job bringing Audrey to life. She gave her personality and the sass I really appreciated, making Audrey seem like a real (undead) person I could connect to. Also, she did a great job of giving the side characters distinctive voices so I always knew who was talking and I love narrators who can make it feel like a full performance. After listening to Afterlife, I would highly recommend it as an audiobook and I would love to listen to the rest of the series.

And yes, this is a series where only a little bit of Audrey's fate has been revealed. I have so many ideas and theories as to what is really going on with Audrey, only some of them I have been right about and others only hints that I need to learn more about. Julie does a great job of leaving just enough bread crumbs to lead the reader in a certain direction without giving almost anything away and making me desperate for more. This is my first read by Julie but I have already added all her other series to my wishlist.

A good religious fiction novel

This is a religious fiction, which should be noted. Good story line and enjoyable, but it may be nice to know going in that the story line revolves around religious beliefs and doctrine. Great choice if you are religious and looking for a good clean uplifting fiction novel.

Romantic cliffhanger

This was such an easy listen! The story of the afterlife follows a group of “hunters” and parallels God’s love for us. It gets a little heavy handed occasionally but overall easy to follow and the story of love, grace, and redemption clearly comes through.

The concept of afterlife “romance” in heaven is totally new to me but definitely left me wanting more of the story which, unfortunately, I’ll have to wait for book 2 to find out what happens between Logan and Audrey. I’m looking forward to it!

The narrator did a great job of bringing each character to life, easy to follow and understand.

OMG so Good

I absolutely loved this ebook when I got it and now I love the book even more. The audio is just awesome. Vanessa Moyen is a great narrator and she gave this book a new feel to it. Julie Hall is a master writer and Vanessa is a master narrator

love the story

I really loved the story. It was a really good find and an unexpected story. It took me a while to get hooked because, at first, I had trouble getting used to narrator's accent. Still, she did a good job and I recommend this audio book.

I freaking love this book

I’ll start by saying this is hands down my favorite series and I’ve read huntress several times. It took a while for me to warm up the narrator for this audio book - she could get a little robotic at times but by the end of the book she had really brought the characters to life. It was amazing being able to listen to my favorite book while driving and Cleaning the kitchen!

Interesting story line

This book was really interesting to read. As an afterlife book goes, it was filled with adventure and soul searching. As a fiction book it’s not laid out to be an exact account as to what happens in the afterlife, however it has amazing ideas of how life can go on.
The characters were well thought out and were for the most part likable. It was easy to follow them along their journey through the book. The pace moved quickly and kept me turning the pages.
I am really looking forward to more of this series.

As an advanced listener of audible I received a copy of this audio book for an honest review.
