About this listen

The national best-selling Black Jewels trilogy established award-winning Anne Bishop as an author whose "sublime skill...blends the darkly macabre with spine-tingling emotional intensity, mesmerizing magic, lush sensuality, and exciting action." (SF Site) Now the saga continues - with four new adventures of Jaenelle and her kindred.

In Dreams Made Flesh, discover the origin of the mystical Jewels, and experience the forbidden passion between Lucivar and a simple hearth witch. Witness the clash between Saetan and a Priestess that may forever change reality. And learn whether the sacrifice of Jaenelle's magic has destroyed any hope of happiness between her and Daemon.

This was a great story, or rather a collection of stories that all wrapped up together. It was fantastic.

The best book to break into this series

My best friend introduced me to this series. It had been her favorite series for years. I had never read fantasy before so she gave me this book and had me read the second story as my introduction to the world of the Black Jewels in all its beauty, glory, darkness, pain, and allegorical perfection. Once you know about the fact that it’s a universe where things are opposite from our own it all seems perfectly reasonable but at the beginning it’s quite a lot of information to take in. Darkness is good, 13 jewel colors, women are the leaders, men serve, etc. etc. It’s a lot to learn!
But The Prince of Ebon Rih makes things seems simple. It’s a love story about a world where some humans fly, everyone has a magic stone, and there’s a wonderful young Queen who has an adopted brother who needs a wife. The universe that Anne Bishop has created is deep and beautiful and everlasting but in The Prince of Ebon Rih things become very simple. And if you’re wondering, yes! When I have a friend who wants to start the series I do the same thing for them that my best friend did for me. I give them a copy of Dreams Made Flesh and have them start by reading, (or listening to), the second story. Then after this simple sweet introduction they’re ready to start the first book in the trilogy The Daughter of the Blood just like I did. And also yes, by that time they are completely hooked just like me!

John Sharian does a great job narrating the series. At first it’s a bit unusual getting used to him when you’ve read it to yourself but then you begin to realize he hasn’t just reading the words he’s given the people an affect, a way of speaking, that is completely unique to this universe. After listening to the 9 books read by Sharian I can’t imagine hearing these characters speak in any other voice other than his. I even hear the cadence of his voice in my mind when I’m reading them to myself!

Dream Come True

I have been patiently awaiting the audio release of Dreams Made Flesh. Even though I've read the book, I looked forward to listening to the stories that tie the trilogy together. I'm very glad that Mr.Sherian reverted back to the voice we were used to hearing when he portrayed Jaenelle. In Tangled Webs he made her sound like Morgan - she had a Celtic lilt to her voice. Listening also helps me focus on parts that I somehow missed while reading. I love the worlds of Kaaleer, Ebon Askavi and the other realms and can't wait until Twilight's Dawn is released.

Dreams Made Flesh is one of the Best books...

I've listened to on audible. I absolutely love this series. The narrator is excellent. The writing captivating and exciting. The storyline is romantic without being sappy. I love the flawed, angry, human characters as well as the worlds that Anne Bishop creates where the plots always thicken.
