How the heck have I never heard the narration of Angus Yellowlees before this book? He is amazing, his accents are spot on and he brings such life to this book. I need to hear more of him!!!
This story intrigued me. I loved the characters, slowly learning what they are and watching as they interacted. I love that they are all different, with varying levels of knowledge. The world building is great, each new place has enough detail so you know where you are but not enough to overwhelm. I thoroughly enjoyed this and would really like to know what happens next…
This is a superbly written tale with engaging characters and a fast flowing storyline. I totally loved it but Warning! it is a huge cliffhanger!
From The Deeps is the First book in the Seven Wardens series by Skye MacKinnon and Laura Greenwood. This reverse-harem novel was mystical and engrossing and I was hooked from start to end. This was my first novel by these authors and I enjoyed the fantasy world they created. The story had mystery, suspense, steamy scenes and some adventure and it ended in a cliff-hanger that has me anxious for the next book.
I listened to the audiobook of this novel and I loved it. The narrator Angus Yellowlees was new to me and I absolutely loved his voice. He was able to create different voices for these characters and really brought the story to life.
I greatly enjoyed listening to this novel. It was a superb story and I loved hearing every minute of it. Definitely worthy of a 5 star status I would highly recommend this novel to all lovers of Fantasy and Reverse Harem romances.
I have really enjoyed this book..to the point I am now off to read the next one. This author has a way of drawing you into the story. A real page Turner. Loved it

I adored this audiobook by Laura Greenwood and Skye MacKinnon! I loved that they went with a male narrator, it was exactly what the book needed and I CANNOT WAIT to listen him do the rest of the series
I liked the story of the 7 Wardens. I enjoyed how they met and their different abilities and how they are different supernatural beings. I didn’t think I was going to like Jared as much as I did, but he surprised me. I think Angus did a phenomenal job with his personality. I adored Camdan! I wasn’t 100% sold on Flint’s voice but I love his character. The adorable moments these guys showed us in Book 1 was fantastic. I think the only reason I couldn’t give the book 5 stars all around is I am not 100% sold on Macey yet. I think my only complaint from Book 1 was that her mind was mostly about jumping them and their physical appearance. I am excited to see them learn more about each other and strengthening their relationships even further. I also wasn’t a huge fan of them all shacking up right away but I understand why. Enjoyed the way Laura and Skye described Macey in her kelpie form. Oh, wish only Jared called her little kelpie (or just the guys), not all the other male characters that did. Loved how different all 3 of them were with Macey (and how steamy their scenes were!). I also am interested to see what happens with Ishban, Amber, and Catman
Again, Angus makes this story come to life and I am really happy that Laura and Skye went out on a limb and picked a man to perform the narration instead of a woman. I thought Angus added a lot of value (and did a good job with the different characters, especially “The Voice’ and the Malan). Hope book 2 isn’t too far away on audio, will snatch it up right away!
Audiobook version:
This story was great! I felt like it was a unique story with great characters. I loved that it had a bit more heat in it that I normally see in Skye’s PNR. I personally thought the collaboration was great! I look forward to reading more from this duo!
Narration was great! This was the 1st I have listened to from this narrator and was not disappointed. It was well read, entertaining and clean.
Great listen! Looking forward to book 2

I read and listen to a lot of paranormal but this was my first Kelpie. The story had everything I liked, hot men, mystery and a strong female MC but I just didn’t feel connected to the story. The narrator did an excellent job with the multitude of characters and separating their voices which helped a lot. I think in the end it was because there was so much information to process plus many scenes kept playing in her head. Which made it hard to grasp what was really happening and why. I did love how it was very unique in an already imaginative genre.
I was so excited to read about a Kelpie add that to the other cool characters in this book and what you have is a super enjoyable read. Steammmmy read.
This is the first book in the Seven Wardens Series. This is a fantastic paranormal romance. The team authors/narrator is perfect. Skye McKinnon and Laura Greenwood ‘s writing is original and captivating. The characters. Macey and her men, Camdan, Flint, and Jared, share a strong chemistry, and an undeniable chemistry. I love the storyline. Be aware that the story ends with a cliffhanger. Now, I can’t wait for the next book in the Series. The narration is really well done. Angus Yellowlees is a new narrator to me. He has a beautiful voice, easy to understand. I enjoyed my listening. I received this free review copy audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.
Loved it! Great story, love the characters and the whole prophecy. Love the men! Love Aunt Nessy! And the Narration was fantastic, first book by this narrator I’ve listened to but I hope he does the rest of the series. Hate hate that it ended! I will be picking up all the books in the series
Macey leads an ordinary life as a human, although she is not. She is a Kelpie princess. One day she is being attacked and finds herself rescued by a good looking man. Turns out she is part of a prophecy of 7 wardens – one for each element that exists in the world.
Macey’s adventures start with this book, where she and 3 other wardens must find and aid the other wardens to have the power they need to fulfill their tasks.
A wonderful fantasy story, deeply in Scottish mysticism, mixed with modern life and the beginnings of polyandry.

I’m not gonna lie, it took me till about halfway thru the book to connect with it. I think it’s more personal than the authors fault because this is the first thing I’ve read that I did not just a absolutely love. That being said about halfway thru the book picks up pace and I starts getting really good. There are a lot of creatures/species in this booknive never read about and they are very interesting. Truly curious how all 7 wardens will come together. I actually really like dynamic between Macey and her men. On to book two so I can see where this prophecy goes!
I really enjoyed this book, it was very unique, as in I have never before read a book with species such as these as characters. The plot took a bit to grasp, but boy, once I grasped it, it took off with me. It became a page turner. I recommend, and cannot wait until the series is completed.
This was a very interesting and unique read. I’ve never read anything with a kelpie before. The authors do a great job of creating this world and introducing everything. I love Macey, she’s sassy, strong, and questions everything. Macey, Cam, Flint, and Jared are 4 of the 7 elemental wardens, i’m very interested to see where the story will go with all of them. The story moves at a good pace and i’m really excited for more.
The characters were great and gotta love the Scottish folk tales. If you love myths and legends you will love this book. Not to mention the sexy men and the steamy scenes!!!!

Awesome book and well worth reading. No spoilers. Read the blurb. I highly recommend this one. A great start to the series. Great characters meshed with a well written story to become a read you can’t put down. It is exciting, suspenseful, hot and steamy, surprising, emotional and so much more.
