Demon and the Raven

Raven of the Woods, Book 2

De: Mary Calmes

Narrado por: Greg Tremblay

Speak of the devil…and he may just appear.

Xander Corey has never been happier. He’s in love, engaged to the man of his dreams, his friends are thriving, his land, Corvus, is safe, his community is booming, and he’s even back to working as a part-time librarian in Osprey, the tiny little town he calls home in Upstate New York. And yes, he’s a witch, though only a few are bothered about that.

But Xander is worried: Why is everyone so cranky? What’s happened to the bees in town? And who attacked his friend the nymph?

Chief of Police Lorne MacBain has issues of his own. He has a murder to solve that may or may not have something to do with magic. Before moving to town and falling in love with a witch, the supernatural was not a concern. But these days, both Xander and magic are an integral part of his life. His main priority is protecting the man he loves, yet that may prove harder than ever.

The evil stalking Xander and Lorne is real, and to fight it, they’ll have to figure out precisely what it is. If only that could happen before it kills them…

such a beautiful love story

love the magic and love between land and man. what a beautiful tale of being connected and harmonious. I'm going to go find a cottage like that now.

Great Follow Up

I love these characters so much, I really want there to be more stories in this series. This whole world is interesting and has so many possibilities. And of course, there is Greg Tremblay and his magic voice! His voice is like a warm hug. 10/10 would recommend.

Excellent!

All I'm going to say is that I hope this series continues for a long time.

love it

great story, I love these characters so much. I hope to read more about their lives together. perfect voice actor. he really brought this tale to life. I could picture each character so clearly.

The perfect sequel.

I was obsessed with the first book and this one did not disappoint. The story was great and really kept me engaged. I can't get enough of Greg Trembly's Boston accent!

Must Read! Amazing book 2

I'm so glad Mary Calmes came back to these 2! I'm so in love with Corvus, the Cottage and Osprey! The main characters are divine and the side characters wonderful! Greg Trembley does a wonderful job narrating. Chef's kiss. I really hope she gives us another book!

Finally the right accent

Lorne finally sounds like Boston! Gonna listen again cause it’s so good. While it took them a bit to realize what was going on, it was a good trip. Loved all the changes! Yahoo for Greg Tremblay!

Wow! Just wow!

Another great read from Mary Calmes. I couldn’t stop listening till the end. These 2 books are fantastic. I hope there is another one for the series. Please!

Got all of Calmes’ best qualities

Great chemistry, great character interactions, wonderful worldbuilding, and I love the narrator’s choice to give Lorne a subtle Boston accent since that’s where he’s from, but it’s not grating at all. Just the right hint of flavor. Crushed this in a day.

YAY A SEQUEL!!!!

All the things I loved - and didn’t love - about the first boom are present in the second! The world-building, the lore, the incredible cast of side characters and loving found family, and the *magic*! I especially appreciated how multiple different religions were represented and respected by the characters.

My only gripe is that there wasn’t more of it! I sincerely hope we get more books in this series because it truly is so magical and Greg is, as always, an incredibly talented narrator who brings all the characters so vividly to life.
