Long-listed, Barnes and Noble Best New Books of the Year, 2024

The Serpent & the Wings of Night meets Shadow and Bone in a seductive, star-crossed, dark romantic fantasy loosely inspired by the Greek myths of Astraea.

"The brightest star needs the darkest night."

Astraea is a prisoner of her own mind, the past sliding from her grasp like water. But she knows she must escape the tyrannical king who holds her captive and find her clouded memories once again. This quest leads her to the Libertatem, a succession of trials hosted by the king in which five human lands compete for a cycle of safety from the vampires seeking blood, claiming souls, and savaging after dark.

But even winning the Libertatum will not keep Astraea safe from vampires. She’s made a bargain with Nyte, the beautiful, deadly vampire who stalks her dreams and haunts her waking hours. He promises to keep her safe, but she knows she cannot trust him, cannot trust his lies, even as she finds herself drawn deeper and deeper into his seductive embrace.

Caught between Nyte and her own mysteries, Astraea must decide if winning the Libertatem for her kingdom is worth her life, or if protection—and the answers to her past—really are her strongest desires.

Really enjoyed the audiobook! I felt like the story really delivered on the back cover copy. You got a lot of star crossed, lovers, trials, and an incredibly interesting slobber romance. Unique characters! Highly recommend, listening rather than reading.

I really enjoyed the story as a whole and the narration was so good! They did excellent casting the voice of all the male characters.

Great narration!

The beginning was slow for me, I didn’t pick up the book as often until I got around chapter 20. But DAMN so worth it and the slow burn was delicious. Not a plot that I was expecting and loved it thoroughly. Can’t wait to listen and read book 2

Not what I expected

I think this is a book you have to listen to a few times. It was hard to keep track of the story line throughout, but I really did enjoy it.

Loved the story….

I have a few thoughts of this book and sadly not all are great.

1. This book had A LOT of potential however it’s an 18 hour listen and in my opinion nothing really exciting happened until about 3 hours left of listening..

2. I sadly couldn’t stand the female narrators voice. Very monotone and one note. Males voice I was used to already due to listening to another audiobook narrated by him!

3. I wish I loved this book as much as the other reviewers because I was excited to hear it contained mythical creatures like Fae, vampires and celestial’s! I understand the beginning of the book we’re being introduced the characters, their backstories but it just dragged on… and on… I YERNED for more action!

4. Honestly.. not sure I can continue on to the other books if voiced by the same female narrator (strictly an audio girly) which is disappointing because I’m hoping book 2 is more adventurous now that we ended the first book with a somewhat exciting scene.

5/10 - not my favorite but had potential

The male narrator only has one voice so when there are multiple males in a scene it can get incredibly confusing. First time I've come across that in any audible book. Most narrators adjust their voices for different characters, even if it's not of the opposite sex. Story was enjoyable enough though.

Not a fan of Male Narrator

A little predictable but in a favorite blanket way. Love the story of fateful star crossed lovers

Great narrators and Beautiful Characters
