Summary
Nix
“You are the savior of mankind” are the last words I ever expected to hear while nibbling on fries. The thing is, I’m not mankind saving material. I don’t even have magic (and just found out it exists). I’m the most boring, normal(ish) human ever.
Suddenly, I’m being tossed right into the middle of a fight that started years before I was even born, and then I get partnered up with Alastair, a quirky magical Guardian. He is rather attractive and sweet when he’s not into the whole “woe is me, I can’t let myself fall in love with you” nonsense. I mean, the moment he took my annoyingly judgmental grandma hostage, it was all over for me. I was hooked.
Now the only problem is...what exactly are we saving the world from?
Alastair
The moment I laid eyes on Nix, the naive yet easygoing human captivated my attention, and now I’m determined to protect him. But despite my amazing and majestic abilities, we might not make it out of this mess. Still, there must be a reason Nix was chosen. No, he doesn’t have pizazz and maybe he really doesn’t have magic, but he’s also one of the strongest and kindest men I’ve ever met.
Now if I can just get him to stop throwing blankets at enemies, we might have a shot at this.
Nixing the End of the World contains a flaming "horse" with antlers who inexplicably appears when needed (or not), an interfering BFF who didn’t really mean to light the trunk on fire, a six-toed cat that looks like he put a claw in a socket, and an incubus who just wants a smoothie without anyone losing their clothes.

Yay! Alice Winters 😁🥰
Absolutely brilliant listen!
Alice Winters is AMAZING as usual!
Loved the storyline, the MC’s, sub-characters, humour and the world building is great 😊
Michael Ferraiuolo excellently narrates as usual and his characterisations are just spot on 😂
Definitely a must listen/read, especially if you’re an Alice Winters fan 🥰
Gets 5⭐️‘s for sure!

such a funny book
I loved this book, the characters are both ridiculous and hilarious but they still draw you in and take you on a wild ride. I can't wait for the next book in the series.

I NEED a follow-up!
I read the book quite some time ago and I'd forgotten just HOW dramatic Alistair was! Michael Ferraiuolo's narration is as wonderful as ever. My only gripe is that I NEED a follow-up more than ever!! A follow-up AND a Nix/Alistair and Miles/Havoc crossover - I'm not afraid to be greedy!!!😂😂😂

Michael’s best narration to date
This was just incredible. The book was awesome first time reading it but adding Michael’s talented narration just made it all the more brilliant!

it's ok
I found this book easier to follow on audiobook than reading it and so enjoyed it a lot more than the first reading. It is exactly my kind of book, magic users, new world to discover, quirky friends, mixed beings, hidden society, prophecy.... however I found it hard going to keep track of what was going on in the book. Furthermore, the ending could have done with a bit more time spent on it. May get next book, not sure.

Good book
Love a book that makes me chuckle in the first few pages and full of sarcastic humorous remarks... Good story line, looking forward to the next.

Good narrator tiring story
I'm sorry this was hard to finish, I thought about dropping it so many times. I enjoyed listening to the narrator and that's the only reason i continued. the story was tiring and it draged on more than it needed to. I won't be picking up the next book
