Once upon a dark dream, the gods told me of our ruin. But I wasn’t nearly as afraid as I should have been.

The walls of my world are crumbling, and it may be too late to save us.
The clock is ticking, and a cruel fate has been laid at my feet.
And now, I am standing at a crossroads, with the blade of destiny in my grip.

To strike would be to end us all, but staying my hand is not an option.
So perhaps it’s time to accept that my sins may cause the Fae to fall.

This is a prequel novella is set 1000 years before A Game of Malice and Greed. Once upon a tangled tale of broken hearts and blackened souls comes a brand new fantasy romance series retelling from the Wall Street Journal best-selling fantasy romance authors of Zodiac Academy. Step into this world of Fae, gods, and curses unlike any retelling you’ve heard before.

TW: Please be aware there is mention of rape in this story, though it is not described.

This was such a good prequel! It gave so much character development and I'm really happy that I chose to listen to this before starting A Game of Malice and Greed.

This book is so great, I cannot wait to get the next one. This is a different fantasy from their other books, which is great because you don’t want to read the same old thing. It was a thrilling read and I got sucked in.

This prequel novella has left me absolutely heartbroken for Kyra. I love her as a character and I am so excited to see her again in the main series. I do bet she will be a very different woman from how this novella started. And don’t get me started on how amazing the narration was for this book. I loved listening to this audiobook so much.

These authors are always amazing at creating a world that I can’t wait to be lost in. Osaria is absolutely another one. There is already such an interesting world. We see a different bread of Fae from their other series *cough* Zodiac Academy *cough* these Fae have been gifted their abilities from the gods, and you have an affinity or affinities towards certain magics. For example, Kyra is a healer, who also has an affinity towards seduction. The addition of the gods of this world has made for a very interesting twist and I can’t wait to see where it will go.

I loved this. Kyra was really interesting. Loved how she didn't want the normal expected everyday life.

It's a yay!
