Eldritch

The Eating Woods, Book 2

De: Keri Lake

Narrado por: James Cassidy, Melissa Barr

In the grimly captivating sequel to Anathema, Maevyth and Zevander must navigate the perilous mortal lands to deliver Zevander from the clutches of an ancient, malevolent power that threatens to shatter both worlds.

An eldritch magic has awakened, turning the mortal world darker. Colder. Famished. With flesh-eating monsters and a sinister curse spreading like a plague, the last glimmer of humanity in Foxglove Parish has long since faded.

For Maevyth and Zevander, the only chance of escape is through The Eating Woods. But fate has woven a new web, tangling the threads of destiny, and crossing the mystical boundary to Aethyria might not be so simple.

As the bones of Maevyth's past are unearthed, and truths unravel with unsettling clarity, the possibility of never leaving Mortasia is becoming more of a reality. Unfortunately for Zevander, time is running out. The longer he stays in the mortal lands, deprived of essential vivicantem, the more he succumbs to the encroaching specter of madness.

Or maybe those chasing shadows are someone hunting him. A wretched evil closing in, threatening to pull him into the darkest corners of his mind.

Only, this time, Maevyth may not have the power to save him.

Eldritch is a full-length, gothic dark fantasy, and the second book in The Eating Woods trilogy. Perfect for listeners who enjoy a plot-heavy and atmospheric story with a unique magic system, a slow-burn romance, and a touch of horror.

Contains mature content. A complete list of content warnings can be found on the author's website. Narrated in duet style.

good storyline

good storyline, but the past to present was a little too back and fourth.

Second book as good or better than the first.

OMG!!! I would give 6 ** if possible. Learning Zevander’s back story was so sad and shows just how strong he is and that him and Maevyth are meant to be together and have been saving each other for years.

The Voices!!!

I’ve already read this book, but I’ve been dying to hear it with the voices from from first book. This audio is perfection! It brought the whole story to life. I cannot wait for the next book. This story is incredible!

The development and heartache of Zevander and Maevyth!

So many ups and downs and emotion put into this book. Narrators did an exceptional job of bringing to life their journey.

Amazing!!

I love the depth of this book and the slow burn! Will be re-listening again!
