Publisher's summary

Sherwood Smith's most popular young adult fantasy begins with Meliara and her brother vowing to free Remalna from an evil king. War is tougher than it seemed. When Meliara is caught by the enemy commander, the elegant Marquis of Shevraeth, it's escape or die. Afterward, Meliara faces a tougher challenge: the battlefield is no longer mud and steel, but palaces, the weapons manners and fans. Toughest of all is courtship, when the one who catches her heart is her personal enemy—the new king. This beloved romantic fantasy has been in continuous print for over twenty years. The definitive edition is corrected, with additional material in six much-requested inserts from the hero’s point of view.

Childhood favorite excellently performed

This book is a great favorite of mine. I loved hearing the story come to like through audio. Shevraeth’s drawl was wonderful to hear and even better than I had imagined. I loved the inserts from his point of view at the end. The narrator did an excellent job with distinct voices for the many characters. The two stories are imaginative and the world of Remalna quite a fun place. If you’re looking for a creative fantasy story that can be enjoyed by the whole family I highly recommend this one!

Favorite comfort book!

I was surprised at the accent at first, but the voice actress did a wonderful job at carrying the narrative throughout the story. When I saw that there was a male actor, I was expecting his voice to appear for Shevraeth so I was a bit disappointed it was not in the audiobook but in the bonus chapters. Overall, I’m happy with the audiobook and it was great to hear how the story sounded vs reading.
