Cursed Fates (Part 2 of 2) [Dramatized Adaptation]

Zodiac Academy [Dramatized Adaptation] #5, Part 2

by Caroline Peckham, Susanne Valenti

The stars have cursed us all.

After the devastating events at Zodiac Academy, we have to deal with this hollow reality we're faced with.

Lionel seeks to destroy us, the Nymphs seek to destroy the entire Fae race, and between all of it, we have to try and survive each day and prove our worth in this forsaken place.

I'm afraid of everything falling apart, but it looks like it already has. Death lurks around every corner, and it wants to claim me and my sister. But together, we will overcome the darkness that seeks to defeat us.

Because we were forged in fire. And these flames will never die.

Adapted from the novel and produced with a full cast of actors, immersive sound effects and cinematic music!

Decided not to finish the series. Too many cringe moments for me.

[Renee · Rating 5 out of 5]

Cursed Fates absolutely gutted me. I went in hoping for at least a little happiness and instead found myself emotionally wrecked in the best and worst way. There is so much happening in this part of the story, and so much of it is heavy, painful, and unfair to characters I’ve grown deeply attached to. It’s not the rainbows-and-rewards arc I wanted for them, and that’s exactly why it’s so powerful.

This book proves just how invested I am. I felt everything — the tension, the heartbreak, the dread, and the desperate need for things to finally turn around. Even when it hurt, I couldn’t pull away. The storytelling kept me locked in and craving answers, relief, and justice for these characters.

While I’m genuinely sad that the graphic audio ends here and I’ll have to switch formats, this book left me with no choice but to continue. I need to know what happens next. As emotionally brutal as it is, Cursed Fates is compelling, immersive, and unforgettable — the kind of book that leaves you aching, but eager for more.

All the narrators delivered an exceptional performance, effortlessly inhabiting each character and using tone and energy to convey inner turmoil, moments of reflection, and self-doubt with vivid clarity. Their clear, steady voices and measured cadence perfectly matched the story’s varying moods, bringing depth and authenticity to every scene. They enhanced the listener’s experience and made the narrative both engaging and emotionally resonant.

Dammit graphic audio better hurry up with book 6 lol and yes I know there are other audiobooks I can listen to but it’s not the same. I have to listen to this version so I will torture myself and wait……and read spoilers.
