About this listen

An instant New York Times bestseller!

‘Sizzling. Stunning. Spectacular.’ – Lauren Roberts

The most fiery enemies-to-lovers romantasy of the year. Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Leigh Bardugo and Stephanie Garber.

In the dark underbelly of a beautiful city, two rival assassins are pitted against each other in a deadly game of revenge, where the most dangerous mistake of all is falling in love…

In Fantome, Shade-magic is a deadly commodity controlled by two enemy guilds: the Cloaks and the Daggers – the thieves and the assassins. On the night of her mother’s murder, 18-year-old Seraphine runs for her life. Seeking sanctuary with the Cloaks, Sera’s heart is set on revenge.

But nothing can prepare Sera for the moment she finally comes face-to-face with Ransom, heir to the Order of Daggers. And Ransom is shocked to discover that this unassuming farmgirl wields a strange and blazing magic he has never seen before…

The Dagger and the Flame was Children's #1 bestseller in the TCM chart on 28 September 2024, and #9 on the New York Times bestseller list of Young Adult Hardcover books on 10 October 2024

The best book I’ve read in a while!

I haven’t felt this alive reading an enemies to lovers romantasy since reading The Crimson Moth at the beginning of the year. This book was unbelievable, and the narrators were both wonderful. I need Freddy Carter to narrate my every thought.

A very easy and enjoyable listen

I enjoyed this story much more than I thought I would. To be honest, I only downloaded it as Freddy Carter was one of the narrators but it was a really enjoyable listen. The story flowed and there were plenty of good surprises to keep you hooked. I look forward to the next one in the series.

What a good book, and such a great audiobook

Thank you to both voice actors, who did a marvellous job bringing the story to life. Also, what a treat to have British voices. Just get this audio version, you will not regret it.
