Generation Hex by Molly Harper – That’s What I’m Talking About…
Audiobook review: Generation Hex by Molly Harper
Generation Hex is the third and final tale in the Moonshadow Cove series. This time around the story focuses on eldest sister, Perry, and the Red Jasperian James. With both sisters finding love and moving outside the cove, ghost containment and young kelpie duties fall to Perry. With the Jasperian Underground and the rival Sandshear finfolk arriving on the island, Moonshadow Cove is getting harder and harder to protect.
Since the start of the series, James and Perry have shared a spark of attraction, but as their Jasperian overseer, James was a bit of a pain for the Seaworth sisters. However, in the previous book, James realized that the work the sisters do to protect the cove’s residents is worth keeping secret, and that the Underground, a rogue group of Jasperians, is a threat to the supernatural witches of Starfall Point.
The Moonshadow Cove series, which is a spinoff from the Starfall Point series, is filled with fun adventures and sweet romances. James and Perry start as enemies, but end up giving in to their mutual attraction. While there is some back and forth about whether or not they can become more than a fling (due to his job and her being a witch), there is very little conflict.
Generation Hex also wraps up the series-long story arc regarding the kelpie princess Shortbread and the rival Sandshear family in a satisfactory manner. The overall tone is light and fun, even a bit silly at times.
Narration: Other than the prologue, the story is shared via the alternating third person POVs of Perry and James. Hamilton voices James’ POVs. His voice is pleasantly deep and fitting. He adjusts for gender. Ronconi brings her usual, upbeat enthusiasm to the role of Perry. She also adjusts appropriately for gender, accent, and age. Both narrators don’t make a huge distinction between characters of the same gender, but their performances are entertaining.
Overall, I’ve really enjoyed spending time in Moonshadow Cove and would love more tales from Starfall Point.

About the Book:
In this spellbinding finale to the Moonshadow Cove trilogy, three sea witch sisters navigate love, magic and friendship while fighting to protect their cozy island home.
If Perry Seaworth had a spell to banish one person, James Huntingdon would disappear in a puff of smoke. As the quintessential eldest daughter, Perry has always shouldered the responsibility of of keeping her sisters safe while defending Starfall Island from ghostly menaces.
Enter James, a secret agent with the Red Jasper Society, tasked with policing witches and their magic. Armed with the power to strip the Seaworths of their abilities, he’s a walking threat to everything Perry holds dear. And his most infuriating quality? Being frustratingly handsome and intriguingly enigmatic.
But as sinister forces emerge from every shadow, Perry might have to put her annoyance aside and accept James’s help. A centuries-old family feud that’s been brewing for generations has finally reached the boiling point. And complicating matters further, the baby sea monster they’ve been raising has grown impossible to contain. Can James and Perry fight off the formidable enemies closing in on them? And will their rivalry ignite into something more powerful—and passionate—than either of them ever dared to imagine?
