About this listen

This box set includes all three books in the Golden Guard trilogy. Get ready for mystery, action, adventure, and romance in an epic fantasy setting.

A coastal summer is turned upside down by a violent murder, and a quest for lost pirate treasure turns into a hunt for the killer.

A mercinary lives by her own rules, and a prince wants to see her under his command. Freeing her from the shadows of her past has a high price, but will he pay it?

In the perilous jungles of the North, luck is something in short supply as two strangers set off on a dangerous mission that may just bring them together...if it doesn't kill them first.

Three separate stories. Three prequels to the Air Awakens world that can be heard in any order. Three books fans around the world love.

Explained so much!

It was so great to get these bits of backstory on all of the members of the Golden Guard and to gather a better understanding of their dynamics and the roots of their friendships.

Great series!

The story follows a young woman through life's challenges.... love, war, heartache, sacrifice, and peace. The series is a roller coaster of happiness and heartbreak. I love that the story is fully completed and I don't have to buy another series to get a quality conclusion.

Don't love the "new" accents

After finishing the Air Awakens series it is hard to hear the characters with previously unmentioned or heard accents. Like, why does Daniel have an Australian accent? Feels like the performer was just trying to show off his range. He also pronounces names differently than the performer of the main series, which is SUPER distracting. Good stories, glad I bought it, just a bit annoyed with the creative liberties the performer took.

Amazing

I loved the male narrator. He made me feel like he was telling the story, I could FEEL everything. The female narrator sounded like she was reading, very stiff like listening to Siri. Thank goodness she was only on the second book half the time. I loved all 3 of these books regardless. Elise Kova is officially my favorite author!!!

Good books- but

The second one had a lot of flaws in recording- repeated sentences and skips. Also, I would have fathered hearing the guy read all of it. There was a female that would read the “female “ chapters, but every time she tried to do a “guy” voice- it REALLY makes you cringe… anywa, overall, excellent books. Love Miss Kiva’s work!!

Always a great listen

So I’ve had this book for a while now, and I thought of put this review and previously, but apparently I not. I love listening to the books but for some reason this time it keeps skipping I’m not sure why. I mean I can still follow along and it’s still a great story still a good book and I will still always really listen lol.

Cool alternative POVS

It’s cool to see events from a different perspective. The voice acting was amazing. The did an amazing job.

love this universe

I first listened to Air Awaken series by this author, then The Golden Guard. Both the same universe. While GG is based on events that happen prior to AA, I recommend listening in that order. AA then GG. I Have 2 other series of hers next in my library. I can't wait to devour.

Fast pace, easy to follow. I like the switch up of narrator and perspectives. You basically get to know more of the supporting characters from AA in this series. I do feel like the writing assumes you've read AA to know Jacks debtes to the crown in this series. I don't recall they went into detail why and only tiptoed around it, his crimes are revealed in AA but not in depth in this GG series.

Only one negative. The last book of this series, I'll call this character "the selfish one," really didn't deserve his outcome at the end. I don't want to spoil anything so I leave it there for you to find out what I mean. if you know, you know!

Good story, poor narration.

Very choppy throughout the male narrative, and it became very distracting. Otherwise it was good.
