Story
As a cassandra sangue, or blood prophet, Meg Corbyn can see the future when her skin is cut - a gift that feels more like a curse. Meg's Controller keeps her enslaved so he can have full access to her visions. But when she escapes, the only safe place Meg can hide is at the Lakeside Courtyard - a business district operated by the Others. Shape-shifter Simon Wolfgard is reluctant to hire the stranger who inquires about the Human Liaison job.

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.

"Happily Ever After" wasn't supposed to come with a do-over option. But when my husband of 20 years packs up and heads for greener pastures, and my son heads away to college, that's exactly what my midlife becomes. A do-over. This time, though, I plan to do things differently. Age is just a number, after all, and at 40 I'm ready to carve my own path. Eager for a fresh start, I make a somewhat unorthodox decision and move to a tiny town in the Sierra foothills.

Just hours after humans are born, the gods take what little power we have. In return, they protect our borders from the vicious, merciless fae.

To survive, I make a desperate bargain with the mercenary who abandoned me at my weakest moment. Our deal is simple: I’ll help him and his mysterious friends sneak into the city, and he’ll help me learn to wield the strange, dark power I’ve always kept hidden.

Minalan gave up a promising career as a professional warmage to live the quiet life of a village spellmonger in the remote mountain valley of Boval. It was a peaceful, beautiful little fief, far from the dangerous feudal petty squabbles of the Five Duchies, on the world of Callidore. There were cows. Lots of cows. And cheese. For six months things went well: He found a quaint little shop, he befriended the local lord, the village folk loved him, he found a sharp young apprentice to help out, and, best yet, he met a comely young widow with the prettiest eyes.

Publisher's summary
Seven hundred years ago, a Black Widow witch saw an ancient prophecy come to life in her web of dreams and visions. Now, the Dark Kingdom readies itself for the arrival of its queen, a witch who will wield more power than even the High Lord of Hell himself. But she is still young, still open to influence - and corruption.
Whoever controls the queen controls the darkness. Three men - sworn enemies - know this. And they know the power that hides behind the blue eyes of an innocent young girl. And so begins a ruthless game of politics and intrigue, magic and betrayal, in which the weapons are hate and love - and the prize could be terrible beyond imagining.
Critic reviews
"Darkly mesmerizing...[a] fascinating, dark world.” (Locus)
“Lavishly sensual...a richly detailed world based on a reversal of standard genre cliches.” (Library Journal)
“Vividly painted...dramatic, erotic, hope-filled.” (Lynn Flewelling)
Featured Article: The top 100 fantasy listens of all time
When compiling our list of the best fantasy listening out there, we immediately came up against the age-old question: Is this fantasy or science fiction? The distinction is not as clear as you may think. Dragons, elves, and wizards are definitely fantasy, but what about wizards that also fly space ships? (Looking at you, Star Wars.) For the sake of fantasy purity, the top 100 fantasy listens include the best audio works in all manner of fantasy subgenres.

Everyone dreams of marrying a prince - except for me. I am nothing more than a pawn in my adoptive mother's diabolical plot against the seven kingdoms. I was the chosen tool, her sharpened blade that would cut the deepest into the heart of the kingdom of Baist. But like all deadly weapons, my wedding is two-edged sword that could cost me my soul. For I am Rosalie, one of the adopted daughters of Lady Eville, and it is my duty to enter into a loveless and hate-filled marriage with the narcissistic Crown Prince of Baist.

Rumor said the powerful Nicolai DeMarco could command the heavens, that the beasts below did his bidding... and that he was doomed to destroy the woman he took as wife. It was whispered he was not wholly human - as untamed as his tawny mane and slashing amber eyes. Impoverished aristocrat Isabella Vernaducci would defy death itself to rescue her imprisoned brother. She’d even brave the haunted, accursed lair of the lion - the menacing palace of legendary, lethal Don Nicolai DeMarco.

LOVE this series
I love the detail of the not just the characters but how you can truly visualize the scene and emotions and feel as if you are there. I love the strength of the woman and the struggles the men must endure. I've read and listened to the whole series multiple times, and it never gets old.

It was not what I expected
I liked this book, it wasn't what I expected though. This is defiantly NOT a romance so don't buy it thinking you will get one. It is a bit confusing, there is a lot of detail, it jumps back and forth so you must pay attention to the reader to know which scene you are entering with the new chapter.
Overall I did enjoy this book!!

Narration
The story was good, if difficult to follow in the beginning. There were times I had to stop and do some Google searches to see if I should read one of the stand alone novels first.
My only real complaint is the narrator. He doesn’t fit the characters or story at all. He voice sounds like radio DJ Casey Kasem with the dramatic skills of a high school drama club member. I almost stopped listening by the second chapter. I am disappointed to see that they keep the same narrator through the series. Someone like Steve West would have been a much more appropriate choice.

John Sharian is the best narrator
What made the experience of listening to Daughter of the Blood the most enjoyable?
John Sharian's voice
What about John Sharian’s performance did you like?
Loved his voice and how he made the characters come to life
Any additional comments?
This type of story is a little too dark for my own taste. Although I enjoyed the heart ranching longing of the main characters, the physical torture (ring of obedience) described is too cruel to be entertaining.

disturbing in parts
I did overall like it but it did take a while to get into and to understand all the different characters as there are many and the story jumps from one POV to another all the time. Then there is the sexual abuse. it does have meaning but it still makes for a very disturbing listen at times. I also think the way Chanel is described makes me think much more of an 8 9 year old than a 13 year old. this makes it feel even more horrific if that's possible. I do wonder if the author went too far in the child abuse and what was done. Some parts were not necessary. the basics were bad enough (e.g. the leg, the spikes)

Role Reversal
I really enjoyed this book in its printed form and tend to re-read the series every few years and now to have it in an audible form has been exciting.
The role reversal for those in power and those that serve and protect in this book series is what brings me back. It’s an easy read because you get caught up in the main character and forget how much time has passed.

Dark and Enticing
the characters are very likeable and it's easy to follow their story! if you're not into dark fantasy with a sinister edge this isn't for you.

Will always love this trilogy/series!
read this for the first time at 12 and have loved it since. this will always be my favorite and i sincerely hope that if its ever made into a movie series or tv series that they will stay true to the detail the author put into this world/masterpiece.
