Story4.5 out of 5 stars 253
They are Warlord Princes, men born to serve and protect. They are the Queen's Weapons, men born to destroy the Queen's enemies - no matter what face that enemy wears. Daemonar Yaslana knows how to be bossy yet supportive - traits he shares with his father, the Demon Prince, and his uncle, the High Lord of Hell. Within his generation of the family, he assumes the role of protector, supporting his sister Titian's artistic efforts and curbing his cousin Jaenelle Saetien's more adventurous ideas.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 7,737
Since his wife died, Ralph Roberts has been having trouble sleeping. Each night he wakes up a bit earlier until he's barely sleeping at all. During his late-night walks, he observes some strange things going on in Derry, Maine. He sees colored ribbons streaming from people's heads, two strange little men wandering around town after dark, and more. He begins to suspect that these visions are something more than hallucinations brought on by lack of sleep.

An Excellent "Read"

I picked out this book as a phone ographrr and USMC veteran b cause both interests crossed. This book did a lot more than pique my interest. Many times it left me feeling open and raw, and in a good way. Definitely worth reading/listening to.

We've all heard it before: when times are tough, go back to the basics. It seems simple, but the reality is that in good times, many of us let some of the most important principles of selling go by the wayside, which leaves us scrambling when a downturn hits. That's why world-renowned sales expert Tom Hopkins is here to remind us that challenges are a constant aspect of selling and that the key to success is to keep your attitude positive and to never stop striving for excellence.

Good Info, but...

The information is extremely helpful, but the voice is monotone and just drags on. makes it hard to focus on what is being said.

Audie Award, Humor, 2016. In Furiously Happy, number-one New York Times best-selling author Jenny Lawson explores her lifelong battle with mental illness. A hysterical, ridiculous book about crippling depression and anxiety? That sounds like a terrible idea. But terrible ideas are what Jenny does best.

Definitely worth the "read."

Whether you've suffered from mental illness or enjoyed every moment of it, this book is much needed. Her stories are all over the place, but they always show what mental illness can do to us.
That this is read by the author only makes it better because we then know that every intonation and inflection is what she meant for it to be.
Most of all, this book shows us that despite what we may think most days...we are not alone.

Where does Twilight's Dawn rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Twilight's Dawn definitely ranks among the top audiobooks. I love revisiting these characters over and over.
What did you like best about this story?
I loved having another book of novellas for the realm of the Black Jewels. I realize that a lot of it is fluff and the true story was told long ago, but it's nice seeing some of the gaps filled in.
Which scene was your favorite?
My favorite would probably have to either be when Daemon brings justice to Falonar in Hell, or the very end scene.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
When Jaenelle Saetien received Twilight's Dawn, and Daemon got to speak to his lady just one last time.
Any additional comments?
I love revisiting these characters over and over. I've bought the books, and I've bought the audiobooks since I don't have a lot of time to actually sit and read these days.
