Resumen del Editor

Captivating and action-packed, From Blood and Ash is a sexy, addictive, and unexpected fantasy perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Laura Thalassa.

A Maiden...

Chosen from birth to usher in a new era, Poppy’s life has never been her own. The life of the Maiden is solitary. Never to be touched. Never to be looked upon. Never to be spoken to. Never to experience pleasure. Waiting for the day of her Ascension, she would rather be with the guards, fighting back the evil that took her family, than preparing to be found worthy by the gods. But the choice has never been hers.

A Duty...

The entire kingdom’s future rests on Poppy’s shoulders, something she’s not even quite sure she wants for herself. Because a Maiden has a heart. And a soul. And longing. And when Hawke, a golden-eyed guard honor bound to ensure her Ascension, enters her life, destiny and duty become tangled with desire and need. He incites her anger, makes her question everything she believes in, and tempts her with the forbidden.

A Kingdom...

Forsaken by the gods and feared by mortals, a fallen kingdom is rising once more, determined to take back what they believe is theirs through violence and vengeance. And as the shadow of those cursed draws closer, the line between what is forbidden and what is right becomes blurred. Poppy is not only on the verge of losing her heart and being found unworthy by the gods, but also her life when every blood-soaked thread that holds her world together begins to unravel.

Great

This is one of my favorite books ever so I was a little worried about this Version and I just love the original narrator so much. Happily all the worrying was unnecessary. All of the Voice actors did a great job bringing the characters to life and I really enjoyed them. Can’t wait for the second half

Loved!

I loved everything about this! The actors and music was fantastic! I can’t wait for the second part!

Fantastic

Loved the work done on any dramatized audio book. Looking forward to hopefully the whole series and spin off getting dramatized too!

My favorite book brought to life!!

I absolutely LOVE this book and the entire series. I can’t wait for part two and hope the entire series is recorded by this cast.

Finally! A near perfect book!

Whole heartedly recommend this book. Especially if you are looking to fill a void from series like Throne of Glass/ACOTAR. I absolutely love these characters and the world building. I was hooked right away and the story is very compelling. Did I guess the twist ? Yes. Did it matter? No. There were more! Plus the voice acting is 10/10. I hate having to wait for more full cast of the next books.

Engaging story, enjoyable voice actors

I enjoy the story and the voice actors are engaging, my only issue with this is in the recording. At certain points they sound like they are in a bathroom or hall as it echos and it throws me off.

Great FMC loved it!

If Graphic Audio does it I'M GONNA LISTEN 🥰 so worth the buy and listen! My bestie has been on me to read this series and I couldn't help myself when I seen this option! can't wait for the next part ❤️ so so good!

mood and personalities finally matched

the level of consideration to context of each scene was phenomenal. the personalities, the music, the sound effects were spot on. thank you!

Pronounce the names right!!!

I am VERY disappointed by the dramatized adaptation. The voice actors repeatedly mispronounce the names of the major places in the book, such as Masadonia and Carsodonia. They leave out the letter i and say Masadona and Carsodona. I've listened to the books on regular audible, and these words are pronounced with the "i". They also mispronounce the names of some of the gods, as compared to the book and other audio recordings. For an avid JLA fan, it's very frustrating!

Graphic Audio

In my experience, graphic audio can sometimes be cringy - but this book is great!!! I really enjoy the adaptation and everything that went into this! I hope they do the whole series!
