Story
Being born undead can have its disadvantages, such as eternal youth and flawless beauty-things most unsuitable for a witch. Hiding behind the guise of a grimy old crone, the witch is content living outside Fort Stalwart with her unlikely band of allies: a troll named Gwurm, an enchanted broom, and a demonic duck named Newt. She leads a simple life filled with spells, potions, and the occasional curse.

Story
Teri and Phil had never needed their own personal god. But when Phil is passed up for a promotion - again - it's time to take matters into their own hands. And look online. Choosing a god isn't as simple as you would think. There are too many choices; and they often have very hefty prices for their eternal devotion: blood, money, sacrifices, and vows of chastity. But then they find Luka, raccoon god of prosperity. All he wants is a small cut of their good fortune. Oh - and to crash on their couch for a few days.

Witness the epic battle of the cyclops! Visit the endangered dragon preserve! Please, no slaying. Solve the mystery of The Mystery Cottage, if you dare! Buy some knickknacks from The Fates! They might come in handy later. On a road trip across an enchanted America, Helen and Troy will discover all this and more. If the curse placed upon them by an ancient god doesn't kill them or the pack of reluctant orc assassins don't catch up to them, Helen and Troy might reach the end their journey in one piece, where they might just end up destroying the world.

Emperor Mollusk. Intergalactic Menace. Destroyer of Worlds. Conqueror of Other Worlds. Mad Genius. Ex-Warlord of Earth. Not bad for a guy without a spine. But what's a villain to do after he's done... everything. With no new ambitions, he's happy to pitch in and solve the energy crisis or repel aliens invaders should the need arise, but if he had his way, he'd prefer to be left alone to explore the boundaries of dangerous science. Just as a hobby, of course. Retirement isn't easy though.

Twelve-year-old Percy Jackson is about to be kicked out of boarding school...again. No matter how hard he tries, he can't seem to stay out of trouble. But can he really be expected to stand by and watch while a bully picks on his scrawny best friend? Or not defend himself against his pre-algebra teacher when she turns into a monster and tries to kill him? Of course, no one believes Percy about the monster incident; he's not even sure he believes himself.

Publisher's summary
The wizard Margle the Horrendous takes special pride in never killing his enemies. Instead, he transforms them into various accursed forms and locks them away in his castle. His halls are filled with his collection of fallen heroes and defeated villains, along with a few ordinary folk who were just unfortunate enough to draw Margles attention. It's Nessy's duty to tend this castle. Its a lot of work, but she manages, taking pride in housekeeping talents that keep the castle from collapsing into chaos. But when Margle suddenly dies, everything begins to unravel.
Nessy finds herself surrounded by monsters, curses, a door that should never be opened, and one very deadly dark wizardess. Nessy doesnt have might or magic on her side; shes just a kobold: short, furry, and sensible. Her allies aren't much better: a voice without a body, an angry fruit bat, a monster under her bed, a wizard in a jar (or some of him, anyway), and a one-eyed, one-horned, flying, purple, people eater. It would be smarter to walk away, but taking care of the castle is Nessy's job, and thats just what she intends to do.If only she could find time to polish the silver while beating back the forces of darkness.

Decent but...
Well if you know Martinez’s work you know what you’re in for.
This has some really nice and interesting characters. But... the story didn’t really grab me this time and it felt just a little flat by the end. I actually listened to the last half hour twice wondering if I missed something. Nope. It just ends.
It’s not a bad book. It’s just not great either. There’s very little mythology meat to back anything up. All in all a little disappointing. But it’s not awful.

A fun family friendly tale for everyone
I can't say how many times I've listened to this story, let alone read it. I have it on kindle, MP3 CD, and now audiobook. Nessie's story is one of dogged determination, unrelenting optimism, and faith that hard work and a positive attitude pays off in the long run. No matter what is thrown at her, from evil wizardsto unwanted houseguests she sees her way through with gritted teeth and a smile. My kids loved this story, it has incredible characters, fantastic monsters, and a noble heroine. I don't think you could ask for more from a fantasy story. The only downside to this tale is that there is no follow up. Martinez seems to mve on after each of his stories to new lands and characters. My kids and I have enjoyed many of his tales whether it was that of a Nameless Witch and her killer duck, or Never Dead Ned, a fellow who doesn't stay dead for long. His stories all have a bigger picture, and a promise of hope.
The writing is humorous and perfectly paced, there is no slow part, nothing drags, and you really worry about the characters. Nessie the Kobold is probably one of the best fantasy characters ever made. She has a lot of depth, and is a great example of what it takes to be a hero.
The narration is done really well, and Toren plays Nessie and the rest with a vigor and vim that few readers achieve. She really makes you empathize with the monster under the bed, worry for Nessie, and wonder what is coming next. She is a great choice for this part. I bought his on my own, did not get a credit for promotion, nor do I know the author. I just know that this is one of the best books that I have ever read. You will feel the same way. Don't miss out.

A pretty good story with pretty good narration. Entertaining to listen to, but not particularly memorable.

kobolds do not have fur
its a fine light hearted fantasy novel, but had to take off two stars due to the author not knowing the difference between a gnoll and a kobold.

I find Suzanne Toren to be a wonderful narrator...
... and "Too Many Curses" is a wonderful, totally original book. The combination is irresistible and unbeatable. A wizard that bubbles when he talks, a fruit bat with a scottish accent, a purple room that's not purple - Martinez's imagination and Toren's talent and easy-to-listen-to voice. I wish she narrated all his books.

fantastic. even better than the book.
having the narrator read different voices for all the different curses really helped bring this story to life for me. the. the book was great but I believe this was better.
