I don't know if the same voice actress did the other #books in the series, #Raybearer and #Redemptor, as it was years ago I read those, but those had a VA with a similar accent at least. Could've been the same woman, I guess. #booksky #audiobook #JordanIfueko
"The Maid and The Crocodile" also contains a #lesbian relationship between two of the secondary characters.

Ooh, #JordanIfueko has a new book set in the same world as #Raybearer & #Redemptor! Well, it came out last year, but it's new to me. This #book is "The Maid and the Crocodile," and the sounds amazing! The protag is #disabled, too, which is always a plus. I have the #audiobook on hold.
