Hybrid #5
Exiled
A pack divided.
Nick finally found his place among natural wolves, but it came at the cost of Zee and Lady Sarah’s freedom. Now the two vampires are nothing more than puppets, bound by the Slayers’ dark necromancy which runs deep. But Hell’s grip on the last werewolf runs deeper still.
Selina’s visions point Nick toward a new ally with the knowledge to take the battle to the Slayers. With the inner secrets of their bases at his fingertips, Nick can plan his rescue of his captured pack mates.
But before any of that, Jaken's will must be done. There is an ancient weapon to seek out and destroy, the kind that might slay a demon. Of course, nothing is ever so easy.
Nick vows to reunite his pack whatever it takes, but at what new cost?

About the author
Nick Stead
18 books23 followersA lifelong fan of supernatural horror and fantasy, Nick spends his days prowling the darker side of fiction, often to the scream of heavy metal guitars and the purrs of his feline companions.
Fate set him on the path of the writer at the tender age of 15. The journey has been much longer and harder than his teenage self ever anticipated, but 17 years later he is still forging ahead.
Nick is best known for his Hybrid series, the first of which was published under Wild Wolf Publishing in 2015. The second and third instalments originally launched 2016 and 2017 respectively, but a planned move to another publisher brought the series to a standstill over the next two years, when things didn't work out as hoped.
2020 saw him teaming up with two other esteemed Huddersfield authors, to form their own label, Twisted Fate Publishing. Nick spent most of the 2020 lockdown working hard on editing the three manuscripts for re-release as revised and extended second editions, and the reboot began with Hybrid on July 31st. The long awaited fourth instalment is planned for around Halloween 2020, at which point he will get to work on the fifth for release in 2021.
Nick has also had short stories published in various anthologies, and will soon be releasing his first non-Hybrid novel based on the true story of the Pendle witches.

All in all a really rather decent and entertaining story. All the books had me hooked this one included.
However I’m hoping for another as there are a lot of unanswered questions including (why Nick had to kill a certain couple?!) unless I did a fly by on the answer!
I found out supernatural beings are very selfish. It’s ok for them to kill who they like but if one of them is killed it’s not allowed! Vengeance is needed! What do they think most of slayers are trying to kill them all for?! 🤔😂
Anyway if you are a fan of everything supernatural like werewolves, vampires, zombies, ghouls (a rather lovely, pictured in my minds eye, knocker who won me from the beginning, who I would have had no chance with incidentally !!) darn it!! And many more supernatural beings, Then you’ll love this series of books.
I highly recommend them all! Exciting, funny, gory and full of action!

Where is book 6
Brilliant yet again Mr Stead. I am eagerly awaiting the next instalment in the series...I thought Jaken was the big bad but it seems not.
