Recipes for an Unexpected Afterlife

De: Deston J. Munden

Narrado por: Matthew Wolf

A heartwarming, magical new novel about an undead orc knight who trades the battlefield for a fresh start in the Necropolis, where opening a restaurant leads to daring adventures, newfound family, and a second chance at life, perfect for fans of Legends & Lattes and cozy fantasy tales.

Rottgor is worn out. Literally. Barely held together by dark magic, he has protected the Necropolis for centuries. When he’s forced into retirement, he’s faced with a new challenge: to forge a future guided not by obligation, but by passion.

Following his heart (and stomach), he decides to open a restaurant where the city’s undead and living residents can share food and community. He’s helped in his quest by an unlikely assortment of neighbors, including elves, skeletons, vampires—and a young orphan girl named Astra, whose ancestry, if discovered, could put her and the entire Necropolis in danger. To protect Astra and the life he’s building, Rottgor must face his past and form new alliances built on friendship, loyalty, and love. As comforting as warm pumpkin bread, this gentle fantasy traces how even a dark history can rise into a bright future.

I really enjoyed this book from start to finish. The worldbuilding and characters pulled me right in, and the narration brought everything to life beautifully. I can easily see this becoming a movie or TV series one day. Fantastic work Deston! 😊

Loved

A hug in a book, I really enjoyed listening to this, the narrator is one of my favorites. If you loved The House Witch or Legends and Lattes, this is right up your alley.

A continuous joy I didn’t want to end.

I didn’t want it to end. The story that kept unfolding was endearing and full of clear and present feeling. The action and tenderness were well balanced. I hope it continues in a new adventure.
