About this listen

Every oath holds power.

In a land where the Earth spawns terrible beasts capable of moving through all but stone, the Sky bestows power to those bound by Oaths.

As earthbound creatures invade, bringing with them chaos and whispers of a coming war, protector and Overseer Tehran fights to keep his people safe. After losing his best friend to the beasts and with the stability of the region deteriorating, Tehran heads to the Capital to plead for support from the Order of the Sky.

When his friend’s widow stows aboard the transport, determined to hold the Order accountable for the death of her husband, Tehran’s plans are derailed. Torn between upholding his responsibility as an Overseer or honouring his friend’s memory, Tehran must either choose the Oaths that have forged him or trust new bonds to guard the fate of the Mercurial.

This is fabulous and omg just read it

Loved the narration and the characters, so obsessed with how the author has created the Oathbound world and all the complexities within it! It’s like Dune, plus Clockwork Angel (Shadowhunters) plus Way of Kings, plus Wool (Silo). It’s character driven sci-fi with a romance sub plot and it will destroy your emotions! (Which I love).

Wonderful worldbuilding

I was gifted this audiobook from the author in exchange for an honest review! I LOVED this book. I will admit that certain characters drove me absolutely crazy, but I still found myself unable to put this book down.

I laughed, I cried, I raged… and I came out absolutely in love with the world Katee has created (and Knox). Cannot wait for book 2!

perfect sci-fantasy

A genius blend of sci-fi and fantasy with beautiful relationships, loveable and real characters, with gut-wrenching suspense. If you want Dune with the vows required by the Jedi order, this must be read.

I kept thinking of Lost and Dune!

Such a great combination of driving story and dedicated voicing and reading prowess. I’m not a big fan of love triangles, but this one kept me guessing and moving through the story interested. There’s a great religious/magic type of system here…and I want to know SO MUCH MORE. Oh, and the creature game was a 100!

Emotional Sci-Fantasy

Really good story with fantastic narration. I was really invested in Tehran and Emelia’s story! Knox was good too!

Great fantasy book

I haven't read a fantasy book in ages, so when Earthbound caught my eye I decided to pick it up and I was not mistaken! It's a captivating adventure of love, honor, and oath. I am definitely waiting for the second book because I want to know how the story ends.

Very entertaining listen and story!

This was such a unique and interesting twist of fantasy and sci-fi. All 3 POVS were incredibly entertaining and helped make this story a hit for me. Narrator Magnus did a fantastic job with this! Highly recommend you check this one out!

SO Well Done!

Listening to this audiobook was wonderful! The clarity and quality was top tier. The narrator Magnus Carlsson, really understood the story and had such emotion in their voice.
This book deals with some dark subjects (loss of a child and partner, religious beliefs) but handles it with dignity.

There was a lot to love about this scifi/fantasy novel. It's an interesting mix of a couple of styles and I feel like Katee is finding her voice as an author.
We have characters that don't always do the right things, act with haste and have regrets. You know...like real humans! I think the characters are the real strength here....they are complex and developed. I loved the sacrifices the author makes them experience. It brings realness to the story.
The villains aren't that villainous and I would have loved to see some real scary stuff in the next installment to this duology!
