Eyes of Devious Burgundy

An Age of War and Prophecy (Deathcaller Duet, Book 1)

De: Lacey Lehotzky

Narrado por: Daphne Fields, Gideon Frost

She killed her abusive husband. Then, she stole his face and marched off to war. Assyria has spent years trapped in a marriage to a nobleman who values her only for the powerful heir she might give him. But when soldiers arrive to conscript her husband into the realm's brutal war between Angels and Demons, a violent clash leaves him dead—and Assyria with one chance to escape execution.

Using her rare magic, she takes his form and joins the army in his place.

All she has to do is survive the war, hide the female beneath the stolen face, and avoid drawing the attention of the Demons' most dangerous general.

Cruel, merciless, and feared for his power to raise the dead, Rokath has spent ten long years fighting a brutal war with the Angels. When a prophecy foretells that a woman with eyes of devious burgundy will shift the balance of power, finding her becomes paramount. He doesn't expect the woman from the prophecy to be thrown at his feet for punishment.

And he certainly doesn't expect a mating bond to snap into place when she looks into his eyes.

In the midst of war, love might be the deadliest weapon of all.

Eyes of Devious Burgundy is the first book in the Deathcaller Duet, a slow burn, enemies to lovers, banter-filled dark fantasy romance with a dangerous MMC and a fiery FMC. Perfect for fans of Carissa Broadbent, Raven Kennedy, and Sarah A Parker. An Age of War and Prophecy is a series of interconnected duets and standalones with each book or duet having its own romance plot. The war plot requires full series commitment. You can start the series with either the Mindbreaker Duet or the Deathcaller duet.

An actual enemies to lovers ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This book has all my favorite tropes and well done. Enemies to lovers, forced proximity, fated mates, found family and Shadow daddy 😍

The audiobook gave me plot, romance, suspense, yearning and a completely different MMC. The spice was amazing.

Boring, no action

I was disappointed by this book after hearing from different people on book top that it was a good read. I have read tons of romantasy books and this one had no in-depth plot. the book was the main character's pretty much traveling and bickering.

So good!!!! I stayed up listening and lost sleep

I loved this book so much!!!! I am not a fan of the mmc voice in the audio but it didn't take away too much where I didn't enjoy this immensely

Overhyped, DNF at 60%

I literally had to force myself to make it even this far. Good concept, but the execution fell completely flat and felt unnecessarily dragged out. The MMC’s POV was soo boring, zero character depth. The male narrator didn't help either. Also this is definitely not a slow burn. Five minutes after meeting, they hit one spicy scene after another and immediately write it off as "oh, it’s just the bond." Like yeah, what else would it be when you literally just met? 🤦‍♀️

Better than expected

I’ve been waiting for the book for awhile now and I’m glad I finally got around to it. As long as you go into it with realistic expectations, you’ll probably enjoy it. The first half is basically mulan, like what other reviewers mentioned. It takes a turn halfway through, but it’s fairly predictable. The FMC is smart and determined in the beginning but I thought that over the course of the book she kind of becomes a side character. The MMC is difficult, but in war times I guess it makes sense.
