About this listen
He was striking in a cold-blooded kind of way, like his beauty was tinged with poison. Unassuming, alluring even.
I brought my eyes up to meet his.
"Fia Riftborne?" The words dripped from his lips like blood from a dagger.
Twenty years after a rebellion branded her an outcast, Fia Riftborne navigates a city rife with prejudice so deep, it's often deadly. But she harbors a secret, one that would paint an even larger target on her back. A hidden power within her is growing, threatening to destroy everything she's built for herself.
Enter the elusive Sidhe General, Laryk Ashford, who is building a unit of powerful wielders within the Guard to face a growing threat. Wraiths of darkness devour the Western border, leaving a trail of death and destruction in their wake.
When Fia's power erupts, and two daughters of Nobility are seemingly dead, General Ashford offers her a chilling choice: join the Sidhe Guard or face execution.
Because Fia might be the only hope for the Isle's survival.
Torn between surrendering to the chaos or becoming a weapon for those who took everything from her, Fia must confront her growing feelings for the General and face a dark truth that could shatter everything she's ever known.
Riftborne was written for listeners that love a well-developed enemies-to-lovers arc and strong female friendships. The magic system is heavily inspired by X-Men—if it took place in the city of Silverymoon from the Forgotten Realms.
Laryk Ashford is the Charles Xavior to Fia’s Dark Phoenix. It would appeal to fans of A Fate Inked in Blood by Danielle L. Jensen and Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros.

Story
As the half faerie daughter of a human king, my days were spent tucked out of sight—until the Seelie Fae sought an alliance with our kingdom. In exchange for my father’s help in defeating their Unseelie enemies, I would wed Atakan the heartless. The Seelie prince loathed everyone, but none more than me. Throughout the years leading to our nuptials, each encounter grew more terrifying than the last as he demonstrated how he’d earned his infamous reputation.

The wars of the past may be over, but her thirst for revenge is far from quenched. For years, she has been content with her poisons and potions for company, but when an unknown form of alchemy is used to attack a king of the midrealms, Wren’s time in the shadows comes to an end.

Story
There are whispers about what lurks in Witch Knell—the forest where sinners go to die. The villagers call it The Eating Woods because what's taken is never given back. Only those who've lost their senses would dare to go near it. Or the banished. Maevyth Bronwick knows better than to breach the misty labyrinth of trees, but a tragic turn of events compels her beyond the archway of bones to a boundary no mortal has crossed before. One that cloaks a dark and fantastical world that's as dangerous as it is alluring. It's there that he dwells, the cursed lord of Eidolon.

Kenna Heron is best known in her village for being a little wild—some say half feral—but she’ll need every ounce of that ferocity to survive captivity in the cruel Fae court. Trapped as a servant in the faeries’ underground kingdom of Mistei, Kenna must help her new mistress undertake six deadly trials, one for each branch of magic: Fire, Earth, Light, Void, Illusion, and Blood. If she succeeds, her mistress will gain immortality and become the heir to Earth House. If she doesn’t, the punishment is death—for both mistress and servant.

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

As the half faerie daughter of a human king, my days were spent tucked out of sight—until the Seelie Fae sought an alliance with our kingdom. In exchange for my father’s help in defeating their Unseelie enemies, I would wed Atakan the heartless. The Seelie prince loathed everyone, but none more than me. Throughout the years leading to our nuptials, each encounter grew more terrifying than the last as he demonstrated how he’d earned his infamous reputation.

Great narration, entertaining read
3.5 rounding up to 4 ⭐️. The narrator was excellent! The plot and story line was entertaining. But, I felt like the story was missing something, and occasionally some plot gaps or bad transitions left me wondering what just happened. Overall I enjoyed the book and will listen to the next in the series.

The narrator was perfection
The story itself was fantastic, with a main character whose development kept me eagerly turning the virtual pages. The plot was engaging, and that cliffhanger at the end? It left me wanting more—I'm definitely looking forward to the next installment. I was thoroughly captivated by the narrator's performance in this audiobook. Her voice acting was absolutely outstanding, really bringing the story to life in a way that kept me hooked from start to finish. As someone who has occasionally DNF’d books due to a narrator not quite being my cup of tea, I can honestly say I was relieved and delighted by her performance. Her range and voice quality were remarkable—each character felt distinct, and she effortlessly captured the emotional depth of the story.
Overall, the combination of a compelling story and such a skilled narrator made this a truly enjoyable experience. Highly recommend!

Perfection
I have not read a book this perfect in such a long time. I read and listen at the same time and not only is this book perfection but so is the audio performance. I’m going to have such a hangover from this book. I cannot wait for the next book in this series. I don’t know why this book isn’t being talked about as a must read of 2024. It is so well done. 6 star read!! Get it!! You won’t be disappointed!!
