## Resource

A wizard on her doorstep, a ritual knife that isn't where her hands expect it to be, and muscle memory running miles ahead of her brain. Asha's body remembers how to fight long before her mind remembers why — and this time the thing hunting her has a face, a name she can almost catch, and absolutely no intention of leaving Tanglewood empty-handed. Cursebreaker Book 1: The Dusk Reapers is a full-cast urban fantasy audiobook by JT Lawrence, narrated chapter-by-chapter. New episodes weekdays at 4 PM Eastern. Follow the show so you never miss an episode. If you're enjoying Asha's story, leave a rating — it genuinely helps other listeners find the podcast. Learn more about JT Lawrence at jt-lawrence.com.
