Elspeth Spindle needs more than luck to stay safe in the eerie, mist-locked kingdom of Blunder—she needs a monster. She calls him the Nightmare, an ancient, mercurial spirit trapped in her head. He protects her. He keeps her secrets. But nothing comes for free, especially magic. When Elspeth meets a mysterious highwayman on the forest road, her life takes a drastic turn. Thrust into a world of shadow and deception, she joins a dangerous quest to cure Blunder from the dark magic infecting it.

Mispronunciation
Reviewed: 03-04-25
Every time the narrator said the word ‘hearth’ I cringed! She said herth instead of harth.

Story3.5 out of 5 stars 28
It must be said. Scandal follows her family like an ever-faithful hound. No matter how hard they kick it away, it comes slinking around time-after-time. Although her relatives are obsessed with social position and the opinions of others, heiress India Elisabeth Petra De Vries Ledbetter is determined to live life by her own terms, family expectations and society's demands be damned.

Abysmal narration
Reviewed: 03-23-24
The narrator mispronounced so many words regularly that it made it very difficult to finish this title. The production value was also terrible as editing was obvious and changed with each chapter. Very poorly done!

Different and lovely, this story captivated me right away and I couldn’t stop listening. I cried the entire last hour! (In a good way)

History made real
Reviewed: 07-03-23
This work seems well research and although I was familiar with both mother & daughter, since Elizabeth had been so young when she lost her mother, I had never guessed at the connections between them. I loved learning about the Boleyns throughout history, but especially Elizabeth’s devotion to her mother.

Slow narration
Reviewed: 01-10-23
I struggled to continue listening to this retelling of Beauty & the Beast. The story is one I’ve heard over and over without anything new, and the slow tambour of the narrator’s voice required that I increase the listening speed to get through.
