About this listen

When old secrets catch fire, everything will burn.

In a mortal world colonized by the gods and ruled over by their cruel offspring, the Descended, Diem Bellator yearns to escape the insular life of her poor village.

Her mother's sudden disappearance—and the discovery of a dangerous secret about her past—offer Diem an unexpected opportunity to enter the dark world of Descended royalty and unlock the web of mysteries her mother left behind.

With the dying king's handsome, mysterious heir watching her every move and a ruthless mortal alliance recruiting her to join the growing civil war, Diem will have to navigate the unwritten rules of love, power, and politics in order to save her family—and all of mortal kind.

Spark of the Everflame is the first book in The Kindred's Curse Saga, a four-book epic fantasy romance series that follows our feisty, bad*ss heroine Diem Bellator in her fight against injustice and oppression, her struggle to survive in a royal palace full of betrayal and intrigue, and her journey of self-discovery and finding true love. This slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers series is perfect for fans of unique magic systems, dragons and other mythical creatures, angst and romantic tension, and hilarious banter.

Should I say - Watch out ACOTAR? - just because this might be my new favorite. NOT comparing the two series yet..

"Spark of the Everflame" offers a refreshing departure from my usual reads, delivering a captivating story that keeps you hooked from start to finish. The book balances its intricate politics and world-building effortlessly, providing just enough detail to keep you guessing about the various factions within the realm. Amidst a backdrop of a ruling class and rebels, the forbidden romance adds an intriguing layer of tension. There's also violence and SA, I appreciate these tropes in a story and bringing awareness to a reader when it's so real in our world as well.
What sets this book apart is its authenticity in language—it doesn't shy away from using real swear words, adding a raw and genuine feel to the characters and their world. The cursing is well-integrated into the narrative, enhancing rather than distracting from the story.
As I reached the end, I found myself questioning everything—I have a strong sense that there's more beneath the surface than meets the eye. This uncertainty has me eagerly anticipating diving into the second book of the series. "Spark of the Everflame" is a must-read for anyone craving a thrilling, immersive fantasy with a hint of mystery and rebellion.

Amazing

This book is amazing from the first page. It is action packed and exciting. The story moves along quickly and doesn’t overwhelm you with hundreds of characters. The anticipation that is built around the love story is done well. I am buying book 2 right now.

Couldn’t stop listening!

An intelligent storyline that beautifully unravels thought-provoking social & interpersonal challenges, with just the right amount of romantic mystique. The relatable inner dialogue, perfectly narrated, made for an indulgently non-productive weekend of non-stop listening that I’m not really mad about. ‘Preparing to devour book 2 now!

Satisfied Listener

Overall I’m pretty satisfied with the story. Wish you got a few more answers to the questions in the book rather than it being pulled into the next book. That didn’t affect the enjoyment though.

So freaking gooooood

LOVE this book, the writing, the plot, characters, all of it!! If you loved ACOTAR or Fourth Wing this won’t disappoint. It was the first book that drew me out of those obsessive loves and got me hooked on a new series. 10000% amazing
