Grave Misfortune

Fortune Favors the Fae

De: Nazri Noor

Narrado por: Zachary Johnson

Darkness sleeps beneath Barrowdeep.

War-weary mercenary Leoric has traded his sword for a shovel, burying the undead blight that plagues the little town of Barrowdeep. Now he fights for the living instead of against them.

Fae trickster Orphium travels from town to town, stealing human trinkets and memories through games of chance. He's desperate to fill the hollow in his heart, but the hunger never goes away.

Barrowdeep is ripe for the picking, except the nosy local gravedigger keeps interfering. But when Leoric unearths an ancient fae artifact, Orphium knows he’ll stop at nothing to possess the powerful coin.

And the undead will stop at nothing to possess him.

Orphium and Leoric must fight the undead together before tensions and their shadowy pasts rise to the surface — and before an even darker evil awakens beneath Barrowdeep.

Grave Misfortune is a part of the multi-author series, Fortune Favors the Fae. From spicy to sweet, zany romps to epic adventures, there’s something for everyone in this mystical series. Discover destiny and true love and follow the coin on its fickle journey to the next world and a new magical adventure.

lives up to the rest

This new series seems to be in line with the previous book series. And I can't wait to hear more of it. and you wish the stories were a little bit longer.I believe the originals, uh, we're about three hours longer in read time. (I could be wrong on that)

enemies to lovers

I'm never disappointed in a Zachary Johnson narration. He's superb in paranormal/fantasy titles. He nailed Orphium's personality and the tension between him and Leoric.

Horrible Narration

I have heard such great things about this author and had high expectations. I think if I read the book myself, I might enjoy it, but this narrator absolutely ruined it. Both MCs sound like angry 12-year-old boys with absolutely no emotional depth or maturity. They're portrayed by the narrator with grating, irritating voices and are brats all the time. I could maybe see that for the fae character, but the human MC seems to have sacrificed quite a bit and put up with quite a bit to sound like not much more than a petulant child. I think it's 100% the narrators approach to voicing the characters... if I imagine them with different voices I could see enjoying the story. I can count on my 10 fingers the number of times I've been unable to finish a MM romance in the last 10 years and two of the books were in this series. Thankfully, I enjoyed the rest of the series.
