About this listen

A SWORD . . .

In the impoverished outer town of a kingdom where fae outrank humans, Faythe, an orphan with a talent for swordplay, knows the importance of keeping her head down around the fae patrol. She and best friend Jakon long for a better life, and her desire to swing her sword in combat may bring the purpose and coin she's yearned for.

A DREAM . . .

When she draws the attention of royal guard Nik, she soon learns that her mortal nature isn't the only reason to remain out of sight. Nik is a Nightwalker, a silent assassin of the mind with the power to enter others' dreams, and whether she trusts him or not, he's about to awaken abilities in Faythe that shouldn't exist in a human. Nightmarish abilities. Deadly abilities. Abilities that will teach Faythe blood really does run thicker than water . . . and if she doesn't trust in higher powers soon, blood will run indeed.

AN HEIR . . .

For this is no battle Faythe can fight with steel. Within the city walls, suspicions are arising, and here in the outer town she has deeper bonds to protect. It seems everyone will die with a dark secret to tell, but what if one unlikely human girl was born harboring the darkest secret of all . . . ?

Elizabeth Evans is exceptional. Just listened to the samples for the next 2 books & the narrator is terrible. I'll wait for a rerecord. Sorry

Is no one else picking up on the embarrassing likeness to Throne of Glass? The book and story in itself is fun, and i liked it- but i couldn’t shake the feeling of having read it before…

Throne of Glass inspired, or copy?

I came for Elizabeth Evans but stayed for the story. I listened to this in a day, I couldn’t stop. I loved every aspect of this. Competent FMC, helpful and kind MMC, respectful friendship between genders etc. what’s not to love?!. Pls do not hesitate to listen to this. It’s worth your time.

Beautiful story

Cover illustration is good, narrator is good, the story…boring.

This wasn’t doing it for me, got 4 hrs in and just couldn’t finish…it was a chore to get that far to be honest.

I just didn’t care about any of the characters or the supposed high stakes…it just didn’t translate for me. I felt bored and like I was waiting for the story to start. The main character and the storyline has a very been there, heard this all before (or rather the better version) feel to it. The relationships induced many an eye rolling, the cliche best male friend wanting the main character, the mysterious bad boy…urgh.

Maybe it get’s better after the 4hr mark, I’ll never know…another wasted credit.

I found this very dry and boring…

I have to admit that at first I really wasn’t sold on this book; it just felt rather underdeveloped. I had a hard time engaging with the story and really investing in it, so I ended up rewinding it over and over again, until I gave up and just restarted- but I am DEFINITELY glad that I did!
It’s admittedly very slow to start, I would say it doesn’t really take off until into the second half of the book. That being said, there’s a lot that happens in the first half, but it just feels a little directionless until the second half, it doesn’t feel like it’s really going anywhere. There’s definitely quite a lot of filler, some people love filler, some people don’t. Some of the plot twists were quite predictable, I saw a few coming from miles away- but they were definitely well done.
All that being said, I certainly enjoyed this book, and I fully intend on (and look forward to) reading the next book. I think it ended VERY well.
Overall I would say that while it is quite clear throughout that the author is new and perhaps a little inexperienced, it is a good book, definitely has a lot of potential. After I restarted it, I did enjoy it a lot. I wasn’t perhaps on tenterhooks or desperate to keep listening, but I did really enjoy it, it’s a good, solid read. I do definitely recommend this, I am impressed by it. To be honest, I think my main issue with getting into it was just because I’ve recently read several series that are faster paced and more established in the sense that the authors are more experienced and have developed a unique voice, so going into a debut novel by a young author was a bit uncomfortable- what I mean to say (and am not doing a good job of) is that I think this is a fantastic first book and that the series has a lot of potential; my problem was that my judgement was clouded at first because my head was still caught up in a different series!
But yes, long story short, I highly recommend and I look forward to reading more from this author! 💚

Has lots of potential!
