About this listen

In the midst of war, love might be the deadliest weapon of all.

***For audio bonus scenes and more visit the author's website***

For ten long years, Angels and Demons have waged a brutal war, with one man standing between the Demons and total annihilation: Rokath, the cruel and merciless general feared for his power to raise the dead.

A prophecy whispers of a woman with eyes of devious burgundy who will shift the balance of power, but Rokath has plans of his own. After a deadly plague wipes out millions of Demons across the realm, Rokath issues an unforgiving command—every family must send one male to the front or face being put to the sword.

Assyria, a sharp-tongued, burgundy-eyed farmgirl, is trapped in an abusive marriage to a nobleman who only values her for the power she could give their offspring. Her life unravels when Rokath’s soldiers arrive with the decree. A violent clash leaves her covered in blood—and running for her life. With her rare magic, she assumes the form of her slain husband and marches off to war, hiding among the very men she’s sworn to hate for killing her family.

In a society where women must remain veiled and pure, Assyria's survival hinges on secrecy. Yet nothing can prepare her for the sharp, sinister gaze of Rokath, whose punishments for disobedience are swift and savage.

When their paths cross, fate sets into motion a dangerous chain of events neither of them can control. With tension crackling between them and thousands of lives balanced on a knife’s edge, will their unlikely connection ignite salvation for the Demons—or doom them to destruction?

Eyes of Devious Burgundy is the first book in the Deathcaller Duet, a slow meet, hate-to-love, banter-filled high dark fantasy romance with a vicious, dangerous MMC and a fiery FMC. Perfect for fans of A Choice of Light and Dark, Carissa Broadbent, and LJ Andrews. It contains mature, dark themes that some readers might find disturbing.

The voice actors on this project deserve so much recognition for this, they did such a good job, the book was 400 pages to long and the way the mmc was written made this near impossible to listen to with a straight face. well done to the voice talent.

I feel bad on the voice actors

I really enjoyed this book. The narrators were perfection. Great story and different to the usual dark fantasy I’ve read. Although the FMC is domestically abused by her husband she is ballsy and I love her chat back with the MMC. He is a broody, angry and morally grey MMC. Love him. Can’t wait for book 2 and the rest of the story. The ongoing Angel/Demon war/religion is a big part of the story and again this makes it a nice change from the usual politics etc.

Narrators Superb

5 ⭐️
One of the best dark romantasy books I have listened to (read) in the past two years. Im about to start the next and hoping it is as epic as this was.
Note to self “ go check out author and see what else she has written as I need to read it!”
