The Desert Cursed Series Boxset (Books 4-6)

By: Shannon Mayer

Narrated by: Lauren Fortgang

Oracle's Haunt (Book 4)

Hope is a four-letter word. Yet, I can’t help but hope that the Oracle will be the answer to what I seek.

But getting to the Oracle is no small thing as she resides in the center of the Blasted lands—toxic waste, lava, and monsters. And as the alpha of our Pride, it’s up to me to act responsibly and not get my people all killed.

Driving us from behind comes the desert goddess whose rage is centered on me, and with her is a new ally, who still holds my heart in his hands. One whose voice calls to me still.

Eyes on the prize, I will push forward, even though hope feels weak and pointless. Along the way, maybe my heart will heal, maybe I’ll bring my brother back from the dead, maybe this will turn out okay after all.

Or maybe I will lose everything, and everyone I hold dear and discover I’m not meant to save anyone.

Hope might spring eternal, but she’s a right bitch as far as I can see.

Wyvern's Lair (Book 5)

I thought I had the next steps in my journey plotted out. I thought I knew where I was going and who I was going with—the usual crew of Lila the smart-mouthed tiny dragon, Ford the man who would be my mate if I let him, and Balder, the horse who has carried me through more danger than I can count.

Crap on a camel, I could not have been more wrong. My world is turned upside down when my crew somehow gains two people who would as soon kill me, as see me succeed.

Even with this new twist, I must get to the crossroads before the golden moon rises if we have any chance of dethroning the Emperor and bringing my brother back from the dead.

Along the way I find myself in treacherous waters facing new dangers, new enemies and a choice that no one should ever have to make.

Maks’s life is in my hands, and in the end, will love be enough to save him, or will I have to say goodbye to him once and for all?

Emperor's Throne (Book 6)

There might be no rest for the wicked, but there’s no rest for the exhausted either. We’ve barely survived one fight, and we have another blade at our throats-strike that, three blades.

I can see only one possible chance at surviving the three evils we face, no matter how much I might hate it.

I have to make my peace with one of them and pray that they will help me take down the other two before we turn on each other.

The only question is...who do I trust not only my life but with the life of my family? Because I have all those I love the best at my side.

Maks.

Lila.

Bryce.

Or do I leave them, and take the danger with me to face it all on my own?

One thing is for sure...even if I go down, it’ll be swinging with everything I have.

Most Excellent

Love this series. It’s a departure from my usual fare, but nonetheless, it held me enthralled from the very first page. The flail is undoubtedly one of the most badass weapons in literature. I was not happy with the way the last book in this set ended, which I think ends the saga. I have the notion the books hollowing are like the mini games after a boss battle but I will keeping listening. Lauren always reminds why she is in my top five narrators list. Two great talents converge and deliver something special.

Best seller for a reason!

What a fun, complicated & addicting story. Well developed characters- witty shakespeare jibes cool monsters lots of magic with a nod to many histories….
