Acerca de esta escucha
Valentine Strange, late of his Majesty's 21st Benhali Lancers, needs money. Happily, the wealthy Holy Orders of Harappu are desperate to retrieve the diadem of the Goddess Purya from an ancient temple deep in the mountainous jungle-an area Strange knows well from his days quelling rebellions. The pay is too good and the job seems too easy for Strange to refuse. But when Master Aleister Grimshaw, a dangerous witch from a traitorous lineage, joins the expedition, Strange begins to suspect that more is at stake than the retrieval of a mere relic.
Grimshaw knows an ancient evil surrounds the diadem - the same evil once hunted him and still haunts his mind. However, experience has taught him to keep his suspicions to himself or risk being denounced as a madman. Again.
Harried by curses, bandits and unnatural creatures, Strange and Grimshaw plunge onward. But when a demonic power wakes and the civilized world descends into revolution, their tenuous friendship is threatened as each man must face the destruction of the life he has known.

Good story, very little romance

David Lazarus was the narrator. He has a very nice voice that was pleasant to listen to. The only issue I had with the audiobook was that sometimes it was difficult to follow the transitions between point of views from one main character to another. Other than that, I enjoyed the story and the narrator’s performance.
Adventure and Magic
Se ha producido un error. Vuelve a intentarlo dentro de unos minutos.
Things started to coalesce for me while the guys got near the hidden temple, so I kept listening. The story was ok but, spoiler alert, nearly everyone dies because Strange shoots them. This may be more reasonable than letting themselves be overtaken, but it was startling to me how cavalier with lives the story was. If you want a quest story with a little magic, some good horses, and lots of shooting while white people run around an Indian jungle, give this a shot.
Steam: Low. This was billed as a romance along with the adventure, but the romance occurred in brief fragments and was incidental. Despite dual POV, neither one thought much about the other in a romantic way. The romance didn’t interact with the story in any necessary way. These guys could have been good friends and made the same choices. It’s fine that the romance, such as it was, was included but it also would have been fine without it.
Narration. While clear and easy to listen to, I found the words kind pf sliding by, somehow, and it was hard to pay attention to for a while. It was a long time before I sorted out who was who. It’s not bad, it just didn’t help me as much as I’d have preferred.
Jungle quest with magic and shooting

What made the experience of listening to Strange Fortune the most enjoyable?
I love the book, and David Lazarus' narration is perfect! It has a certain cadence that really fits in well with this fantasy story, the adventure, the quest, the characters. I felt like someone was really telling me a story, and not just narrating the book.Who was your favorite character and why?
Aleister Grimshaw for complexity, and Valentine Strange for optimism :-)Which scene was your favorite?
The scene where they stop for a swim is one of my favorites, very sweet. Then there are some funny scenes, which make me smile every time i remember them, there's a long scene which made me appreciate Strange's character, and there's a particularly suspenseful one towards the end of the book.If you could take any character from Strange Fortune out to dinner, who would it be and why?
Lady Hyde, so she can tell me all about her magic.Wonderful story, excellent narration
