Divine Dungeon Series, Book 5 Dungeon Eternium / Dakota Krout / 344 pages

The narrator for the Audio book version changed between the first four books and this last book, it is unbelievably distracting because the voices for each character are drastically different than the last books.  The Epic conclusion of the Divine Dungeon Series. The world watches the sky with trepidation. Xenocide's insanity knows no bounds, and all will soon suffer the effects he had planned. For a millennium Xenocide has manipulated the necromancers, the guild and kingdoms to get them to all war against each other and so that he could get their energy to power the massive ritual he wanted to do. And though none know what is to come, they all know it isn’t going to be easy to survive. The Master (of the Necromancers) has a plan, one that can give the world at large a way to escape the oncoming desolation. It may be on the bleeding edge of morality and what he needs might prove too difficult to secure, but The Master asks for trust, which might be difficult to get with the things he has been manipulated by Xenocide to do.  Cal and Dale both have their role to play as the world hurtles toward destruction. One needs to bring the races of the world together while the other simply needs to survive. Surrounded by supposed allies, the duo will do all that they can to succeed—but with every new arrival comes rising tensions and faltering trust. Narrated by Luke Daniels 10h 7min.

Second book in the Lazy Girl’s Guide to Magic series.  Ivy Wilde is not stalking Raphael Winter, she’s just been...taking a lot of passengers in her Taxi to the Order so she can try to bump into him.  She wouldn’t have to if it didn’t seem like he was trying to avoid her ever since their forced bond and partnership had been broken and then their one night stand.  But then the Order and Winter come knocking they need Ivy’s help again. Someone on the famous magic TV series Enchanted has been murdered and the Order suspects magical foul play but there’s not enough evidence from the police for the Order to step in and take over the case as a magical one and the Enchanted producers don’t want the Order involved.  So the Order needs someone not connected to them to go undercover on set to discover what’s going, because if magic really is involved it’s dangerous for everyone and the Order would look bad to the public if something isn’t done even when they can’t act. She thought the job would be easy, go undercover on her favorite TV series, sounds really fun ...she just didn’t think there would be so much running involved.  Narrated by: Tanya Eby 7h 48m.
