About this audiobook
I watched in horror as dark magic sprang from my hand faster than an imp after your socks. I didn't know my name, let alone that I had such power. The man was dead. I panicked. I ran.
How was I to know I was a dark magic enforcer, tasked with keeping magic hidden from the world? Yeah, total noob move, I know.
But my memory is returning, and the Hidden have given me twenty-four hours to make amends. Cover it up. Finish the job I was given, or else. Failure isn't an option. Well, it is, but I like me, and I like being alive.
The clock is ticking as I battle to make things right and exact revenge on those that took so much from me. Easier said than done as I deal with angry mages, bitey zombies, oversexed imps, creepy necromancers, and grumpy trolls-and those are just my friends!-all while trying to stop myself falling in love with my best friend, Kate, who just so happens to be a hot vampire.
I'm Faz Pound, a.k.a. Black Spark, Dark Magic Enforcer, and time is running out.
At least I have my looks. For now.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I struggled a bit at the beginning of the book and wasn't sure it was going to be one that held my interest, but it picked up about a third of the way in and got much more interesting and fast paced after that. Line has created a very interesting world, and Spark is an interesting character, as are the people he interacts with. It's not your usual urban fantasy. It's grittier and darker and has an fascinating magic system. When I started I didn't think I'd be reading more than this book, but now I have to admit that it's gotten into my head and I am curious to see more of this strange and interesting world. Will definitely look for book 2.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Black SparkDark Magic Enforcer Series, Book 1By: Al K. LineNarrated by: Gildart JacksonThis was hard to get through, at least the first third of the way. I almost stopped and quit many times. Once I got half way, it picked up and went much better and was a pretty good book. I am going to get the next book because I am hoping it will be better idea behind the story sounds good. The narrator has such a thick British accent that it was frustrating at times. It is hard to do humor and I think another narrator might have been a better pick. Some very good lines were not funny when they should have been. It is not easy to do...just saying.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Spark is the magic enforcer for the Hidden, a group of people that where either born of magic or people who have learned to use magic. They live in the world with us, some are people and some are creatures of myths. Magic enforcers must take care of those who use magic in the wrong manner or make it where it could too easily be noticed by normal humans. Sparks best friend is a new vampire, only 3 years into her vampire life. Kate is his whole world but hes too chicken to let her know. He has spent the majority of his adult life or over 100 years as an enforcer and knows no other life. After his parents were killed by vampires it takes everything he is to work with them in an manner so saving, Kate has been a new thing to both him and his grandma. Kate is a beauty both inside and out. So out of Sparks normal ways and if it were up to him Kate and he would be a couple but he is a bit of a chicken when it comes to relationships and woman that don't just need a lil something something, now hes been sent to destroy one of the most powerful woman on earth and hes just not sure how it will work out. From the beginning of the story he finds himself with a day or so of amnesia, he kills a grand master chess player in the middle of a park for the whole world to see. He has broken the Hidden laws. Now if he can keep himself out of trouble, haha, him staying out of trouble is like him confronting Kate for a real date almost impossible. Good read kept me reading and kept it to where you can believe this is truly a guy telling his own story!
