Seriously Addicting!I am loving me some Elicia Hyder! This series has … Addicting!
I am loving me some Elicia Hyder! This series has all my favorite genres rolled up into one book. Elicia has weaved a fantastic and very unique plot that’s a supernatural thriller with tons of mystery, suspense and laugh out loud humor as well as some serious sex appeal. I love that Sloan is not your typical heroine and isn’t predictable. Sloan, Adrienne, Nathan and Warren really make this story rock.
You’ll Fall In Love With Sloan
I’ve read this book 4 times, it’s an engaging read that starts fast, pulls you in, and makes you fall in love with the characters from page one…If you enjoy thrillers with a touch of the supernatural, smart heroines, and lively and humorous banter, this book is the perfect read. I’ve already read the second book in the series, and I can’t even tell you which one I like better. And believe me, that’s a great problem to have.
One of my new favorite authors…
After finishing the last Darynda Jones “Charlie” book and the latest Preston & Child “Pendergast” novel I was looking for something similar to immerse myself in. I read all genres-the classics, mysteries, history, etc., Trust me-this series was enjoyable

THE SOUL SUMMONER
Blessed or cursed with a connection to the souls of others, Sloan Jordan can see the best in people…and the worst. With nothing more than a glance at a photograph, she can judge the living from the dead and the good souls from the evil ones. For twenty-seven years, she’s kept her ability a secret, but eleven young women have been murdered in the mountains of North Carolina, and Sloan may be the only hope of finding their killer.
She has just agreed to help Detective Nathan McNamara with the case, when a stranger–who is as alluring as he is terrifying–shows up at her doorstep with a dark past and another puzzling mystery: she can’t see his soul at all.
Now Sloan is on the hunt for a deadly psychopath with two irresistible men. One of them would die for her, and the other would kill to keep her safe.

I enjoyed everything about this book, the story line, the characters the special abilities Sloan and Warren has makes this story great along with Nate! Will continue reading this series!!
I mostly enjoy how Sloan is just a “regular woman” but has this secret power. She’s modest about how she should use it and it’s just plain fun to think “What if I had such a power? What would I do with it?”
This book is very original when it comes to characters who have “powers”. I liked all 3 of the main characters; Sloan because of how honest she is, Nathan because of his drive to find the serial killer, and Warren because of his passion and his dark past. I was surprised that Sloan definitely chose one of the male main characters as her love interest. I will be reading the rest of the series soon!
Audiobook Review:
Overall – 5
Performance – 5
Story – 5
I enjoyed my first Elicia Hyder book.
I read this book as part of a reading challenge for the virtual Coastal Magic Convention being held in February 2021 and I’m glad I spent the time listening to this story. While The Soul Summoner isn’t my usual type of book to read, I really enjoyed it. I especially enjoyed the audio performance by Brittany Pressley. As far as I know this was the first audiobook I’ve listened to by her and I think she did a great job.
The story moved at a good pace and I thought the characters were interesting. I liked the different relationships in the story: Sloan and the two different guys as well as her relationship with her parents. While I wouldn’t exactly say that this story had a cliffhanger it certainly did leave me interested in reading more of the books in this series.
This is the first book in the series and I absolutely loved the whole series. Highly recommend it.
fun book to read, had a hard time stopping
Loved this book, loved this series great character development, the good the bad and the ugly. A little bit of drama, a ton of humour and wit. The other outstanding features for me is the base story and the relationship development between the characters. Its a page tuner and hard to put down once you’ve started.
Just like a pistachio trying stopping at one, bet you can’t 😀
An entertaining page turning read. Two perfect guys, paranormal adventure, and witty banter. What else do you need. Sloan does occasionally make you want to roll your eyes, but it’s better that she is more normal in her reactions and responses.
The Soul Summoner
By: Elicia Hyder
Narrated by: Brittany Pressley
Series: The Soul Summoner Series, Book 1
This book follows a gal that can look at a picture and tell if they are dead or living. A cop is working on a serial killer case and finds out she can do this. Boy does her life change! Then she meets someone like her only opposite. Both are orphans, are they related? It is an interesting romp of romance, a serial killer, supernatural abilities, and friendships. Unpredictable and exciting!
Narration was terrific!
This series is a top notch romantic fantasy! I can’t wait for the next book! The storyline is never predictable! The characters are unique and compelling! You will experience their joy and their heartbreak! More addictive than potato chips! I bet you cannot read just one!
I had received the prequel to this story, The Detective, as a freebie. It was good and intrigued me to continue with the series. The Soul Summoner was fantastic! I don’t want to give too much away but the heroine is Sloan. She has interesting supporting characters that include her best friend, parents, a sexy detective, a seductive former military man, a self centered traffic girl reporter, and a community of interesting folks. Sloan has one problem in an otherwise charmed life, she can see what is in a person’s soul, their essential being. The storyline revolves around a decade long mystery involving the disappearance of 10 girls. I cannot describe how unique and addictive this book is. I am going to continue Sloan’s journey with The Siren, the next in the series. I did not want this book to end. It does not end with a cliffhanger but I just want more of Sloan and her world!
This is like several other young adult love triangle stories that includes the exploration of an unexplainable attraction that binds characters together. It was entertaining, but I didn’t need to read any more in this 7 book series to know how things would end. Nothing new here.
Page-Turner!
I could not put this book down. Love it. I enjoy it so much that I’m re-reading the series for the fourth time. Now that’s saying something!
Hope this helps you choose this series to read
I love The Soul Summoner! Elicia Hyder is an amazing Author. The imagination she puts into The Soul Summoner will astound you. Once you start reading you don’t want to put it down.
I love this book so much. The characters are so likable and they draw you in. I also like the twists and turns the story takes. This is definitely a “stay up all night until it’s finished” book.
I absolutely loved this book! I couldn’t put it down! I can’t wait to get the rest of the books in the series. Elicia Hyder is a very talented writer!
An action-packed, intense page-turner, with memorable characters that made me laugh, drool a little, and smile. Well plotted, and smooth reading suspense, keeps you guessing. I hadn’t a clue as to the identity of the serial killer. Extra points for taking me by surprise and doing it so well.
I had more than a few instances where I was pulled out of the story. This was because the book takes place in Asheville, North Carolina. Where I lived for 28 years. There were a few places and events that I had no clue where they were. Having been gone for almost ten years now could explain the discrepancies, but either way, they bothered me. All in all, I really liked the book and can’t wait to read the next book in the series.
Warren, Nathan, and Slone adventures continue and I’m looking forward to further unfolding of the complex and somewhat tricky dynamics of this unusual romantic triangle.
Great characters and great story line. Once you read this story, you will want to read the whole series!!
This the first book Nathan and Sloan work together on. A little scary at times because things that happen to Sloan. She isn’t sure she can open up to him.
See what happens ..
Must read.
When reading this book the first time several years ago, this book and author helped make the transition from reading physical paper books to an ereader so much easier because I couldn’t put it down! Thank you for opening the door to a whole new reading world!
