About this listen

Bloomsbury presents Defy the Night by Brigid Kemmerer, read by Christopher Ragland and Lexie McDougall.

Instant New York Times Bestseller!

From New York Times bestselling author Brigid Kemmerer comes an electrifying fantasy romance, perfect for fans of Holly Black and Victoria Aveyard.

A desperate prince.
A daring outlaw.
A dangerous flirtation.

In the Wilds of Kandala, apothecary apprentice Tessa Cade has been watching people suffer for too long. A mysterious sickness is ravaging the land and the cure, Moonflower Elixir, is only available for the wealthy. So every night, she defies the royal edicts and sneaks out, stealing Moonflower petals and leaving the elixir for those in need.

In the palace of Kandala, Prince Corrick serves as the King’s Justice, meting out vicious punishments and striking fear into the hearts of agitators and outlaws. Corrick knows he must play this role convincingly—with a shortage of elixir and threats of rebellion looming ever closer, the King’s grip on power is tenuous at best, and Corrick knows his brother is the kingdom’s best hope for survival.

But when an act of unspeakable cruelty brings the royal and the outlaw face to face, the natural enemies are faced with an impossible choice—and a surprising spark. Will they follow their instincts to destroy each other? Or will they save the kingdom together . . . and let that spark ignite?

ONE OF THE BEST YA’S

I love this series with my entire heart. This is the best series ever.


Ik im soooooo late to this book but omg? It was so good? I liked this book so much I tabbed it.

“Please don’t ask.
Please don’t hate me”

I wanted to cry. This book was so well done from start to finish. Tessa the main character was soft but strong. She had such a caring heart for the people. The way I fell in love with corricks character was so unexpected. I felt so bad for him and everything he had to do. I’m sooo glad I read this book.

Fantastic book

I loved this book. It's an easy read with a great story line and fantastic narrators. its not all encompassing world building and epic battles but its so worth it.. I don't leave a lot of all around 5 star reviews but I thoroughly enjoyed this.

So much more than expected.

Amazing story that held my attention and ignited many emotions. The characters were beautiful and flawed, relatable and empathetic. Already looking into more stories from Brigid Kemmerer.

Solid story - looking forward to reading the other two

I really enjoyed the story. It was sweet and Easy. A nice break from real world thoughts. The narration was okay. There are some moments it takes away from the story but not enough to make me give up.
