Grave Situation

De: Louisa Masters

Narrado por: Michael Lesley

He’s not the hero they deserve, but he’s the hero they’ve got.

No, seriously. Talon wants to know what he did to deserve this. What would make a sentient rock decide that he of all people should be the one to save the world from zombies? That’s right. Zombies. Because apparently a higher power decided that teaching magic to teenagers wasn’t enough of a challenge.

With a ridiculously attractive healer (who may or may not hate him), his sister (who he miiiight have a forbidden telepathic link with), a sentient god-like rock (that can only communicate via yes/no vibes), a disdainful dragon, and a rude matchmaking horse by his side, he just might be able to save the world.

Or die trying.

Quite good. Fun characters.

A fun, homosexual adventure. Main character (narrator) is a sassy gay (bisexual iirc) mage. Can be a bit "talky" but the voice performance makes it more palatable.

traditional adventure with untraditional characters.

a very enjoyable book

I like it the story the characters the pacing and the ending I love the adventure well done

Keep your tissues close.

Talon is a mage, and is tasked with a quest to find the champion of the ‘Stone of Creation’ to save the people from zombies, with the help of his twin Tia a dragon rider and Healer Jaimin, they collect others for their quest. As they try to work out how to find the champion, tragedy occurs and one of them dies. All isn’t lost and they do figure it all out.

I laughed and snickered over the characters.
I really loved this book, even though it made me ugly cry.


The audio is just as awesome as the ebook, I loved every second of listening to it.

Brilliant, Witty, and uproarious hilarious

I love everything about this story. The world building is phenomenal. The mc is snark personified. The story is tightly written with masterful word-smithing. GET IT NOW!!

Excellent story

I purchased this because I love the author, but then realized the length was much longer than I normally commit to. I finally began the book and could not put it down. What a great story with interesting characters. I loved it!!

Amazing

This book was absolutely brilliant. I loved the story, the characters, the narration, everything! Get this book, you’ll be glad you did.

Two words: Michael Lesley

Michael Lesley is a simply phenomenal narrator. There is nothing I’ve listened to of his I haven’t loved, and this audiobook is no exception. Louisa Masters wrote a wonderful adventure I didn’t want to end. Romance, intrigue, some sadness balanced out with humor (the snark!). Highly recommend.

Enjoyable - if you like to cry and laugh

I LOVED this story. There is everything you could possibly want - snarky protagonist (check), adorable and amusing sidekicks (check), sweet love angle (check), action (check), twist (check), drama (check). The narrator nailed the voices -- the author nailed the story. Would love another story in this world.

Epic journey!

I love this story! The main character is full of personality. The plot keeps you questioning. The new travel-mates are all interesting and unique. Great job Louisa for creating such a fun story, and to Michael for giving the written words depth and personality!

Wonderful and engaging...

Loved the characters, even the ones I wanted to dislike. And one in particular I wanted to adopt and protect forever. Thank you Louisa.
