About this listen
As if crushin’ on a shifter wasn’t bad enough, I had to go and date one. A mage and a shifter walk into a bar. No, that’s the whole joke.
Magi and shifters don’t mix, and yet I find myself in a relationship with Cosmo, a lion shifter. And on top of that, Cosmo, and all his pride members, consider my brothers and I a part of their pride. Three magi in a shifter pride. Who would’ve ever thought?
Navigating our connection while trying to figure out what’s going on in the world isn’t easy. Trusting that Cosmo means forever when he says it? Even harder. But if there’s one thing I’ve learned since meeting the Ono-Nais, it’s that taking a risk with my heart will be worth it to be a part of their lives.
The Shackles That Hold Us is a 113K novel and the second audiobook in the MM urban fantasy series, The Magi Accounts. It’s recommended to listen to the series in order because it has an ongoing storyline, but there is no cliffhanger.
*Intended for adults only. Please read the trigger warnings at the beginning of this novel.*

Quickly – the book comes with a trigger warning and that’s appropriate. It contained several graphic and disturbing scenes – especially the scenes of torture. I was uncomfortable, but I got through it. These are violent books – basically, there’s a war going on.
The ending left me very happy and I can’t wait to see where the next book takes me.
Shout out to CJ Storm and his fantastic narration of these books. Truly well done.

The narration by CJ Storm is fantastic. He does such a great job giving each character a distinct and different voice that really suits their attributes. Additionally his voicing of the emotional and painful times is spot on, and he really nails Mads' snarky tones.
I received a free copy of this audiobook and am voluntarily leaving this honest review.
Another Winner!

CJ Storm again provides fantastic narration for these strong characters and intense storyline. There are a couple of hard to listen to scenes but from the first few lines, I was just swept away into the Magi world, pride of the Ono-Nai and the crazy world they fight to live in.
I swear, Michele's world and character building is just incredible. You'd think after The Ellwood and Brinnswick Chronicles series' that it couldn't get better but The Magi Accounts matches them on every level.
The family that has been has come together, even reluctantly with Mads, is heartwarming, fun and fiercely protective of each other. The action scenes are intense, non stop and packed with so much going on. The on going series arc has both the characters and readers trying to figure things out with very little information to go on. Then, the relationships that are building - friendships, familial and romantic - are entertaining, endearing and loving.
Mads is a lot of fun to read as he can be quite the contradiction. Stern, fierce and intense but with growing bonds with the Ono-Nai pride and especially Cosmo, his softer side occasionally peeks out making it all the more worthwhile to see. It's a strange time for them as it's always only ever been him and Jude, his dyad. Then the rescued and basically adopted Logan as their little brother and now he has Cosmo. There's no getting rid of the lion alpha, partly because he's their team leader but also because of the soul bond they now share. They were close before that but now there's a whole other level of sensing what each other is feeling. Events in this book bring them closer through the extreme lows and also the lighter moments they manage to find as a pride.
There are a couple of scenes/chapters that I found quite tough to get through because of the content but it's something that ends up showing the inner strength of Mads and Jude, what Cosmo will do to protect his pride and bonds them all closer together. The lightest moment for me actually came in the final chapter and really brings a smile to the characters and the reader's face.
Overall, this series is insane, crazy good and something I can highly recommend to fans of fantasy/PNR. The final action scene must have been planned out in minute detail for all that goes on and for what it might mean for the group going into the next book. We do have the majority of the book from Mads POV with the occasional chapter from Cosmo but I would be very interested for some or a whole book from Jude's considering progressions made in this book.
Emotional continuation of this amazing series

This world is intriguing, intricate, and harrowing and the characters are each unique, quirky and broken in their own ways. You get to know a little more about each character in each book and I am absolutely obsessed with this magical found family/pride!!
This story explores more of Madeo and Cos' connection as they are forced back into the horrors of their past, fight new battles that are getting bigger and more dangerous and facing feelings, emotions and a kindness they've (Madeo and Jude) have never experienced.
I'm totally hooked and love this series and I can't wait to see what happens next and who might get their own companion book hopefully really soon!!
Highly recommended fully captivating series!!
Thrilling!
