Ghosts of the Sea Moon

Saga of the Outer Islands, Book 1

By: A. F. Stewart

Narrated by: Alyson Grauer

In the Outer Islands, gods and magic rule the ocean.

Under the command of Captain Rafe Morrow, the crew of the Celestial Jewel ferry souls to the After World and defend the seas from monsters. Rafe has dedicated his life to protecting the lost, but the tides have shifted and times have changed.

His sister, the Goddess of the Moon, is on a rampage and her creatures are terrorizing the islands. The survival of the living and dead hinge on the courage and cunning of a beleaguered captain and his motley crew of men and ghosts.

What he doesn't know is that her threat is part of a larger game. That an ancient, black-winged malevolence is using them all as pawns....

Come set sail with ghosts, gods, and sea monsters.

Pretty darn good I believe.

Loved the story with all the twists and turns it had. From the God's, to the lowly Mortals, we all have our problems. Go back in time to where it all was real, or not. You decide. Me, myself, and I, all enjoyed the Audiobook, the Narration, and especially the story itself.

Different "gods" at war

This started slow for me but within the first hour it took off and never stopped. The god of souls and the moon goddess are siblings in a dysfunctional family of gods. Our goddess has gone insane and it's all our protagonist can do bring her under control. Plenty of good character development and a story line that's satisfying to the end.

Hmmm

I had a really hard time getting into the story for this book. I actually listened to it multiple times hoping it would click together, but it never did. I didn’t dislike the story, but it isn’t one that kept my interest. I will say that I enjoyed the ending. The narrator did an good job, but I do wonder if it had been a different voice if maybe my interest would have been different, who knows...

Wonderful narrator

Enthralling world and interesting characters. I really enjoyed it. Skillful world building and descriptions made this a pleasure to listen to. Definitely recommend it.

Narrator is very enthusiastic, so much so it made me chuckle. She did a fantastic job. I enjoyed the performance.

Gods and Monsters

Rafe the soul god helps those dead to crossover or stay on his ship with his crew. His sister the moon goddess is crazy and mad at Rafe because he did not help her human love to stay with her. This book is about the interaction between the souls and the monsters that the moon goddess uses to punish her brother. It too a little time to get the gist of this story, but in the end is was a nice book. I was given a free copy of this audio book at my request and this is my honest review.
