About this listen

Death walks beside me.

Two weeks ago, I was hired by the Dragon Prince of Zaru to help his brother, the King, deal with their dead. Not that there is an abundance of corpses in their kingdom, but those who die aren't staying in their graves. As a necromancer, I'm one of the few people on Serai who can put the dead to rest and discover why they are rising. As a Raltven, I'm particularly good at it. Good enough that the King of Zaru sent his brother across the sea to find someone like me.

At first sight, desire sparked between Prince Racmar and me. On the way to Zaru, our attraction for each other had grown. Now it's reached the point of combustion, but I want more than a single night of pleasure from the Prince. To win him, I must play a dangerous game, tantalizing the man without riling the beast inside him. Between Racmar and the dead, I have some serious work to do, and both are presenting unforeseen complications. The reanimated corpses aren't talking, something both unusual and unfortunate for my investigation. Then there is Prince Racmar who speaks too much, and his words are clawing at my resistance. I don't know who will break first—the unknown power behind the dead, the Dragon Prince, or me.

Death walks beside us Raltven, in our shadow form we are akin to spirits, but if I'm not careful, a spirit is exactly what I will become.

Unique story

I liked this story much more than the first in the series. I really liked how the drama wasn't wrapped up neatly. It made it much more realistic and believable. It poses some real life, thought provoking scenarios about racism and inter racial dating.
The virtual voice is pretty good for what it is. I didn't mind it so much so that I listened to this, the second in the series, and plan to continue to listen.
There are some occasionally wonky voice parts. but the that detract too much from the story.

Good, once you get used to the voice

First, the elephant in the room: this is recorded with a computer voice. For what it's worth, it's not bad. However, it's not great. Once you get used to it, you can get through it without paying it much attention. The story for what it's worth is entertaining and steamy. I like that the necromancer is willing to be a necromancer and use necromancy as part of the plot. The world building is decent and the underlying racism that exists is believable. Perhaps my favorite part is that there is no actual good guys or bad guys. Everyone did something shitty and is still doing shitty things. It's a good example of how a bad thing can snowball into a terrible thing, and continue to grow, especially when it's ignored for "the greater good". The main characters are generic tropes but still likable. All in all, I'd recommend this if you can get past the computer voice. It's a fun afternoon listen.

Excellent plot and virtual voice was good.

This is my second review for this author and series and just like the first book I was sceptical at first about the virtual voice and then quickly pleasantly impressed. I had a highschool physics teacher that was more monotone and inflectionless than this virtual voice. It's not perfect and can get a little confusing where there is dialogue between two different characters. And it obviously doesn't perform the emotional scenes but it was impressive for a virtual voice.

The story was well written, planned out, and left me with all the happy feelings and determination to seek out the next book. Thank you so much!

This book featured a lot of racial issues that antagonized the budding relationship. It was well written to really make you think. My personal opinion when I read fantasy with an HEA is to avoid that kind of real life drama, but it was so well written I had to listen until the end.
