Audio Review: In Fair Verona (Much Ado About Demons #0.5) By: Meghan Maslow Narrated by: Darcy Stark

In Fair Verona was a nice prequel to this series. The author and narrator combo were great. Alyssagp gives us their thoughts.

From the blurb:

Mystery short, prequel to Must Love Demons, no romance.

Incubus Nicodemos Azertiran is one lucky demon. He has a best friend. A tiny but livable apartment. And a job at the infamous Marden’s Magic Emporium, a magic shop that only appears in the same place once, and only when a creature is in dire need.

Nico knows all about dire need.

He’s been booted from his legion because his magic runs to happily-ever-afters instead of one-night stands. Not good for lust demon business. Now at Marden’s, Nico is learning to go it on his own.

When Sir Galfridus, First Knight of the Wardens, shows up on Marden’s doorstep, Nico just knows he can help the handsome knight find the perfect item to save the day.

Only one problem. The next day Sir Galfridus turns up dead. Marden’s patrons never die. That’s the whole point. They get the item and save the day. So, what went wrong?

Nico’s about to find out.

In Fair Verona is the inspiration for The Magic Emporium, a multi-author series where each audiobook stands alone, but each one features an appearance by Marden’s Magic Emporium.

Alyssagp's Review:

This book was an entertaining short story. It was nice seeing Nico working at the emporium and solving his case. I enjoyed the interaction between Nico and the dwarves too.

Nico is cute. From my understanding, this is a prequel to the series. I’m looking forward to more in the series! This narrator was fun. The author and narrator duo were great!
