Going Down the Bayou

The Princess and the Frog Retelling (Once upon an Erotica Fairytale, Book 2)

By: Alicia J. Armstrong

Narrated by: Drama Simpson, J.R. Mason

You know me as Dr. Samedi, or the Shadow Man, but once upon a time, I was just Byron—a man with a heart, someone the people actually liked. In the eyes of my grandmother, Mama Ava, I was more than a trickster. But life has a way of twisting paths, and when her shop was losing business and we were being pushed out of our community, I made a desperate decision. A deal with some "friends" from the other side changed everything.

Now, I stand before you, not as the man I once was, but as something else entirely. What led me down this dark road? What did I lose along the way?

Get ready to journey into the bayou and uncover the twisted backstory of Dr. Samedi. Are you brave enough to follow me into the shadows and learn how I became the man you fear? The ride is about to get real, and you won't want to miss it.

The production was great.

It was an okay retelling. sometimes I was a little confused on what was going on. The steamy scenes were verrrrrry steamy, Lol.

Great Story

This audiobook was very entertaining. I enjoyed learning about the backstory of the Shadowman and his friends on the other side .

It’s HERE !!!

Coordinating on getting this audiobook was a journey. I’m NEW to this world so didn’t realize how much to consider when having narrators for a book you never thought would make it to audio. I mean down to how the script is written so it’ll better help the narrators. I’m so happy with how this came out. Performance is top tier, sound effects is immaculate, and the delivery is superb.

Mr Shadowman himself

This was a great spin off of the Princess and the Frog. I love when the villains get to tell their story! I felt like I was watching a live action film while listening. For the characters, it seems like no matter how good the intentions, it’s always never gonna be good LOL. I’m not familiar with the series this book is apart of so the erotica chapters had me confused. I think that could’ve been another spin off book that delved more into the Shadowman’s past. Otherwise it def gave the spice promised. The narrator’s were both amazing! And that bonus chapter 🤣

Hot retelling

Great production with a well-thought-out plot, and the narrators delivered an excellent performance. *The Princess and the Frog* is already such an exciting and fun story, but giving it a darker, adult, erotic fantasy twist made it even more captivating. I knew I was going to love this retelling, and it definitely lived up to my expectations. I can't wait to read more from this author!
