Best of the Waterdeep books so far!

Of the 3 I have read, this was my favorite of the Waterdeep series! I look forward to finishing it up!

best of the series

So far, the best of the whole series. great voice acting and engaging characters. Kept me wanting more.

Took some getting used to, but I was spellbound

So in preparation of the new DDAL Waterdeep mods and trying to fill in some backstory for my Season 8 Character I listened to City of the Dead on audible. By the end of the book I could really relate to several of the characters, especially the main character. Sometimes I also undervalue myself and I think this is something a lot of people can identify with.

Best WaterDeep story I have read

Waterdeep, the City of Splendors, is a remarkable place. The fact that ordinary people live on top of an underground dungeon in a city so magical is just incredible. This book is thoroughly enjoyable to read and helps explain how the citizens of Waterdeep live in a city they love so much.

It is incredible.

Great characters, great story, great audiobook narrator

What a FANTASTIC book. A few weeks in the lives of some almost-ordinary Waterdhavians who save the day despite being almost-ordinary.

The characters are the real strength of this book. The Carver family (and all of the other main characters) are charmingly quirky (in a way that enhances the story rather than being disruptive). Sometimes it feels like you're living right there in Waterdeep with them.

This is now one of my favorite books ever, and Rosemary Jones is joining Elaine Cunningham at the top of my list of favorite Forgotten Realms authors.

For the Audible book, at first I questioned the decision to use a male narrator for a book by a female author about a female protagonist. But as I listened further, I realized he was a great narrator for this book - he really captured the emotions and tones of the scenes, did a wide range of voices that suited the characters, and was able to do semi-goofy voices for characters like Fish and Feeler without it getting too annoying.

I would give this 10 stars if I could.
