Dead Things

Spirit Boys Series, Book 1

De: BL Maxwell

Narrado por: Allen Jeffries

Since Bran Tanda started working at the morgue, his life has changed. He’s spent most of his life denying his necromancer abilities, but now he knows there’s no other choice but to embrace it and learn as much as he can about it. No matter how much he hates it.

Jordan Amid is becoming more comfortable being around the dead. But they still overwhelm him and terrify him. The coldness and the heavy emotions he associates with being near a spirit are nearly too much for him to take. But for Bran, he’ll try.

Bran and Jordan soon realize there is more going on than they understand, and even Janis isn’t sure how to handle what she knows is coming for them. Mysterious markings continue to appear and unless they can learn more from the journals Bran finds at his house, there may be no hope for anyone.

Ghosts!

First book in the Spirit Boys series. Both of the main characters work in a morgue and are affected by ghosts. Bran as a necromancer and Jordan can feel a ghosts pain. This book lays the groundwork for the series and is interconnected with the Valley Ghosts and the Mystical Markings series. I enjoyed listening to the book and am always up for more!!

Bran and Jordan

This is book 1 of the Spirit Boys Series. Bran and Jordan have unique abilities. One is an empath, and the other a necromancer. This makes things interesting as they navigate through intrigue and romance. Overall the story was interesting. I found the voices in narration to be irritating and detracted from the enjoyment of the book. I plan to read the actual book, instead of the narrated, before moving to the next in the series.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Dead Things is the first book in Spirit Boys Series. This series is part of an interconnected world so you may want to start with Valley Ghosts series then the Mystical Markings series then the novella Just Another Day at The Morgue where we are introduced to the main characters of this series and then the free short story The Cemetery Tour. This book is about Bran who has necromancer abilities and Jordan who can feel what ghosts feel. I love the world building and story telling telling BL Maxwell invites us to enjoy. I also love that the characters are in the city I live in, Sacramento California, as it makes it fun to pick out areas I am familiar with. I couldn't put this book down once I started it. I really enjoyed watching these two guys become closer. If you get the audio narration, Allen Jeffries does a wonderful job of narrating this series. He makes the change in characters seamlessly. I can't wait to listen to the next book. I would definitely recommend this book and series.

Loved it

I loved this book. Allen Jeffries' voice really brings this story to life. Bran Tanda has necromancer abilities that has denied most of his life. Jordan Amid is a empath and can feel the emotions of the dead. They both work in the morgue together. Along with their friend Janis they must use their gifts to overcome the evil that could destroy everything.

Will Bran ever get away from his evil mother?

This is a new series by BL Maxwell, called Spirit Boys. This series appears to be a bit of a spin-off of the Mystical Markings series. I enjoyed seeing all the guys again.

This narrator, Allen Jeffries, always takes a little bit of getting used to, with his OTT narration. Once you get into the story you get used to his style and after the first few chapters I don't even notice it anymore.

My thoughts are, before reading this series I would definitely recommend reading the first two books in the Mystical Markings series first. These three books flow into each other along with the characters. Yes, you could probably read this series without the other one first but, I don't know, why would you? The same guys appear in both series along with the same narrator narrating the story. It just makes sense to me to read them in the release order for full enjoyment.

Buddy is back, mommy dearest is still after Bran and all the power, new powers are unveiled, relationships grow, this is all around a fun listen
