This title uses virtual voice narration

Virtual voice is computer-generated narration for audiobooks.
She’s a pawn in a deadly game. A game for which she doesn’t know the rules.

One moment, Lark Axton is just a trainee at Flighthaven—a noble daughter of Aclaris training to fight the winged enemies from Tirene—who’s embroiled in a forbidden love affair with her gorgeous trainer, Sterling.

The next, she’s reeling from the worst kind of betrayals. Now, she doesn’t know who she is. Or who to trust.

Because Sterling isn’t a flight trainer. He isn’t even Sterling. He’s Prince Knox of Tirene. And he’s kidnapped Lark on the orders of his older brother, King Jasper, who claims Lark is Tirenese and seems determined to court her.

Held hostage in the Royal Palace, Lark soon realizes she may be the subject of a prophesy written before her first breath. One that could cost her life. Her heart torn by betrayal and her mind consumed by more questions than answers, Lark is soon ensnared in a dangerous game.

But perhaps the greatest danger of all is Sterling. One look from him can ignite a blaze hotter than the fire magic she’s suppressed her entire life. Caught up in a realm of intrigue where there’s a fine line between love and hate, Lark must choose between the world of her past and the one that holds her future...a future threatened by a sinister, slumbering evil that’s awakening to consume them all.

Bestselling author Nina Frost delivers an irresistible blend of intrigue, passion, and action in this stunning second installment of her captivating Dragons of Tirene series. Dragons & Mythical Creatures Fantasy Royalty Disappearance Game Heartfelt Fiction

I do not enjoy the automated voice. There are many inflections that are read wrong and it takes away from the story and the characters.

This story and characters are well developed and easy to listen to. I did not care for the AI reading but the story is great.

Great story line.

The story has potential but is written in a choppy, elementary fashion. The protagonist spends most of her time getting rescued and the dialogue is a bit painful at times. The AI performance is painful.

I really enjoyed this book but the AI narration made the listening experience horrible. I almost DNF’d because of it.

I must confess that I do not fully understand the enthusiasm surrounding this particular work. In my estimation, it did not quite meet expectations. While I could discern some similarities to elements found in "Fourth Wing" and "Zodiac Academy," I found the characters in those works to be more engaging. To be frank, I did not find myself particularly fond of any of the characters presented in this book. In contrast, "Fourth Wing" and "Zodiac Academy" featured characters, both main and supporting, that were quite captivating. Moreover, the relationships within this book seemed to lack a certain spark, and the characters themselves felt underdeveloped and lacking in depth. The narrative, in my opinion, seemed somewhat superficial, lacking both emotional investment and a compelling plot. Nevertheless, I am willing to give the second installment an opportunity to potentially improve the overall impression of the series. As a final note, I was not particularly impressed with the AI-generated audio.

I struggled initially with the first book but it grabbed my attention at the end so went on to 2nd book. The 1st audiobook was bad and didn’t realize it wan’t narrated or read by a person but knew something was bad. When listening to this book it got the emotion wrong in the context of dialogue and events plus mispronounced words. It ruined the listening experience and I don’t feel I can switch back and forth from reading to listening. I highly recommend staying away from virtual voice narration. I won’t be doing that again. The series is good so just read it and don’t listen.
