Summary

When I was younger, my mother saved my settlement from the unblessed dead that would have killed us all. It cost her everything to reveal her necromancy and sent shockwaves through our stringent religious settlement. Convicted of heresy against our sacred lost texts, she died soon after.

Since then, I have worked hard to maintain my pious standing so that when I turn 18 I will be selected by a suitable husband at the bridal auction.

As the large clock in town square ticks down to my 18th birthday, the dead have been appearing in my garden. If I’m discovered, I’ll face the necromancer trial just as my mother, oldest sister, and I did all those years ago. This time I fear I will not survive it.

To add to my worries, an enigmatic handsome young man has arrived in the settlement. Around him swirls a green aura only I can see. Is he here to help me? Or does he have more nefarious plans?

My name is Ilyse Nott, and I fear I am a necromancer.

If I am, my life is over.

Outstanding!

The Unblessed Dead is an excellent start to an outstanding series. Rhiannon Frater takes an innovative approach to the zombie post-apocalypse by incorporating necromancy. The writing is exceptional with a well-developed plot and captivating characters. Laura Bannister's narration is great, bringing the book life.

I was given a free copy of this audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review
