About this listen

Amy Tintera's new YA fantasy trilogy blends the romance of Kiera Cass' Selection series and the epic stakes of Victoria Aveyard's Red Queen in a story of revenge, adventure, and unexpected love.

Emelina Flores has nothing. Her home in Ruina has been ravaged by war; her parents were killed, and her sister was kidnapped. Even though Em is only a useless Ruined - completely lacking any magic - she is determined to get revenge.

Her plan is simple: She will infiltrate the enemy's kingdom, posing as the crown prince's betrothed. She will lead an ambush. She will kill the king and everything he holds dear, including his son.

The closer Em gets to the prince, though, the more she questions her mission. Her rage-filled heart begins to soften. But with her life - and her family - on the line, love could be Em's deadliest mistake.

Good listen

I liked this book but the lack of a backstory really left me not knowing who I should root for. Besides that the story was good and I plan to continue the series on audio. The narration really kept me engaged in the story also. Overall 3.5 stars

Great YA Book

I liked how this book took some predictable cliches, and wrote it so well you don't care. I found it engaging, with enough little twists to make it unique. I liked that the lead characters were reasonable and developed. I liked that they didn't do super stupid things (I always hate that and figure it's the only way the author knew how to move the plot along).

While things like the forbidden love were not a surprise, this book has some meat to it. The characters discuss the morals behind their actions and learn from mistakes, which was refreshing and kept the book from being superficial. I can't wait for the third to be available on audible!

For parents, I'd rate it PG-13. There is fighting and minor gore details. They are worried about the wedding night, and discuss their worry. There is no sex scene. There is one passionate kissing scene that could be more but ends. There is a side character that is homosexual and it is briefly mentioned that they kiss their partner a couple times, which is how we find out.

Good for younger age groups.

Re-reading this I felt like it was very cliche. This isn’t a bad thing but it can subtract from the story. The ending is good.

Great Performance, but Story Sucked

I thought the performance was wonderful! However the storyline was lacking... The male protagonist, although kind and compassionate- was weak and lacked common sense. Whereas the female protagonist had more depth to her character. In general, the characters' reactions & feelings to the life-altering events seemed insincere and unrealistic.

Ruined

I thought I would be getting the entire book not just a few sentences from the first chapter. This was horrible.

A unique fantasy epic

This underrated fantasy book has a strong story, excellent characters and a fast paced story of intrigue and betrayal. Worth the read!
