Resumen del Editor

THE OVERNIGHT VIRAL SENSATION AND NATIONAL BESTSELLER

The bestselling phenomenon, When the Moon Hatched, is a fast-paced fantasy romance featuring an immersive, vibrant world with mysterious creatures, a unique magic system, and a love that blazes through the ages.

The Creators did not expect their beloved dragons to sail skyward upon their end. To curl into balls just beyond gravity’s grip, littering the sky with tombstones. With moons. They certainly did not expect them to FALL.

As an assassin for the rebellion group Fíur du Ath, Raeve’s job is to complete orders and never get caught. When a rival bounty hunter turns her world upside down, blood spills, hearts break, and Raeve finds herself imprisoned by the Guild of Nobles—a group of powerful fae who turn her into a political statement.

Crushed by the loss of his great love, Kaan Vaegor took the head of a king and donned his melted crown. Now on a tireless quest to quell the never-ebbing ache in his chest, he is lured by a clue into the capitol’s high-security prison where he stumbles upon the imprisoned Raeve....

Echoes of the past race between them.

There’s more to their story than meets the eye, but some truths are too poisonous to swallow.

""A wild ride that thrills as much as it enchants . . . This remarkable book is an instant classic.” — Thea Guanzon, New York Times bestselling author of The Hurricane Wars

“When The Moon Hatched breathes new, beautiful life into the genre, as Sarah A. Parker weaves lyrical prose with undeniable chemistry. I laughed, I cried, I got everything out of this. It’s an absolutely stunning fantasy world that everyone should sink their teeth into.” — Raven Kennedy, internationally bestselling author of The Plated Prisoner series

Read it!

The author has a beautiful descriptive nature in her writing. I enjoyed this book and will continue the series. The main character is clever and funny. Sarah Parker’s best book this far.

Fantastic!

One of the best books I’ve read this year! I love the rich complex world and the well developed & developing characters. Completely unpredictable and unique - I know I’ll be listening to it again before the next one comes out. Can’t wait! And the multiple readers are lovely too

Fire & Brimstone, Shattered Ice

I was riveted from the beginning. It is a little daunting to keep all the characters, the world building straight at the beginning but stick through it. The story is worth the wait, not only that but the author graciously provides aids to keep everything straight.

Understanding the hype

4.5⭐️ for each is more accurate, but it was worth rounding up rather than down.

This was a refreshing piece in terms of being a unique story line with lots of twists and turns. some of the recent hypes have felt like let downs but this certainly was not. Once I was into I loved it, but it did take a touch longer to get into than I’m used to. Looking forward to book 2.

Cool Start But Could Use More Pages

The first 300 pages I flew through. The next 400 were okay. The world building is amazing and atmospheric but the central plot takes so long to unravel. It is done really well. But this could’ve used more pages. I don’t think 700 pages was enough to do this first book justice. Can’t wait to see where this goes but I feel like it was missing more to the ending.

S Tier Performances

What can I say about this? It was a joy to listen to. The pacing felt natural for the most part, I never felt that the characters got handed an easy blow. They always had to earn their triumphs and that was refreshing. The magic system, the dragons, and the world building were all top tier.

I wish there was more character development with Raeve. I felt like we were heading there a few times but it never happened. I assume that the next book will explore more of that and her grappling with all she has to come to terms with. I wish we got more POV of Kaan, it was always a delight when we got to hear more of the male Voice Actor.

Speaking of Voice Actors, WOW. Both performances were stunning. I genuinely hope the next book will have the same performers. I struggle with audiobooks that don’t delineate voices, I just won’t buy them, but these two…the accents, the tone, the collaboration. Wow! Some dual POV books with different actors don’t go to the lengths that these two do. The accents with different characters are consistent with both actors, it’s never jarring and I appreciate it so much.

I’m excited for the next book!!

Epic beautiful story

This book will definitely become more viral, since it’s like fourth wing and ToG had a love child with a dusting of savage lands. It’s got so much emotional depth, action, tremendous hardships, beauty, such fury, and unique characters and an even more unique world. Oof, this story has all the feels, laughing, crying, profound character building and development, all of it. In the beginning, I was a bit confused but the story ends up working best that way by not bogging down the book with monotonous world building. The story really comes together but with so many twists and turns. Some details were very surprising, yet you end the book with a handful more questions too. But in a good way. I like how this was a love story but so different because you are recounting history and the present while threading them together. All the characters have a lot of depth and wit, with sound reasoning for their actions (maybe not always agreeable though) Ima be in a book rut after this one, and cannot wait for the next.!

New and different world

I was surprised by this book. I bought by mistake, but I am glad I did. When is the next one?

Audiobook made this bareable

I had high hopes for this book.
I attempted it without the audiobook and had no idea what was going on for the first 20ish chapters. If it weren’t for the audiobook, this would have been my first to ever not finish.

Soooo good

It took me a little bit to get everything down, there's a LOT of substance to this book and I'll definitely be doing a re read but WOW so good! Not like every fantasy book out there, so different and worth the read!
