Grave witch Alex Craft is no stranger to the dead talking. She raises shades, works with ghosts, and is dating Death himself. But the dead walking? That's not supposed to happen. And yet reanimated corpses are committing crimes across Nekros City.

Alex's investigation leads her deep into a web of sinister magic. When Briar Darque of the Magical Crimes Investigation Bureau gets involved, Alex finds herself with an unexpected ally of sorts. But as the dead continue to rise and wreak havoc on the living, can she get to the soul of the matter in time?

Grave Ransom was released earlier this year but was not available for Pre-order on Audible. I put the paper copy aside, (I tend to read/listen to both at same time) hoping that Audible would release an audio soon. It took a few months but just as I was about to give up and just read my paperback copy, Audible released a copy on October 3!! Thank you Audible!!

I was well worth the wait and credit. The story and world progressed nicely. I love the fact that Grave Witches have terrible vision and go blind for short periods of time. Ms. Price hasn't taken the easy way out and made Alex immune to this as her powers grow. Too many authors start with their heroes having weaknesses and they get too over-powered and infallible as the series continues. Not so with Alex, in fact Alex's eyesight is even worse as she's seeing not only into the Realm of the Dead but other planes of reality.

I really liked the storyline in this one, it was a nice twist on zombies and necromancers. And I really wanted to punch Briar in the nose a few times on Alex's behalf!! I don't want to give away anymore then that. However, I will warn you that the ending is sad so be prepared!

Finally on Audible!!! Good continuation of plot

This is a series that must be read in order. Alex's magical powers and relationships grow stronger and more complex as the series progresses.

It has been a while for me since I read an Alex Craft. I still enjoy her stories. Alex Craft is a grave witch, which means that she has the power to raise the shades of the dead—not ghosts (the disembodied spirits of the dead) but shades (the truth-telling memories of the dead. Her abilities are grave sight (enables her to raise the shades) and planeweaver magic (gives her the ability to see through planes). Both abilities degrade her sight to the point of blindness for extended usage. Planeweaving degrades her sight even more.

She is a true-blooded fae. She inherited a castle, brownie and garden gnome from Governor Theodore Coleman. Now her friends, many are her co-workers, live together as a family in the castle.

She has a working relationship Nekros City Police Department. It is has become strained because as a fea, she cannot divulge things of fae. The lack of full disclosure is frustrating to police and relationship has been damaged. When crimes have a fae component she works with the Fae Investigation Bureau.

Many stories have several story lines. The cases for Tongues for the Dead, Alex’s business become part of the police investigation. She is working with Briar, who is an officer for the Nekros City Police Department. Briar is a hard hitting, take not shit, one-women-strike-team officer. Her concern is results. Alex’s blindness and empathy causes Briar frustrations.

Alex’s gift does not lead itself for physical action or defense of any kind. From those around her there will be action The stories are a urban fantasy PI novel with a unique ability to solve a case.

Why does a high school girl’s whose boyfriend is missing go to Alex?

A Grave mystery worth reading!

Well having listened to all the books back to back this was definitely off putting. The narrator seemed to have forgotten her voices from the previous books. The Raver and the Gray Man....completely different sounding. It threw me out of the story every time the characters came into play. Disappointing.

The narrator is off
