Publisher's summary

Hero. Traitor. It all depends on which side you’re watching from.

When the vicious royals of dark magic who rule my world launched a war against their heirs, they tore our community in two—and I walked out on my family to stand with their enemies. You could say I was championing compassion over tyranny, but really it was pure self-preservation.

Two years after our victory, I’m tutoring a way-too-charming heir who’s totally off limits, dodging my parents’ vengeful spells, and trying to figure out where I’ll land after graduation. My once-prestigious ancestry is doing me no favors. Most of my peers look at me with more suspicion than warmth.

Then a mysterious, brooding man arrives on campus with news of a conspiracy that could destroy our newfound peace. To unravel it, I’ll have to reconnect with the dark side of our community. Disavow my few friends. Woo the mages who idolize my family.

If I fail, they’ll probably kill me.

By now, I know there are worse things than death. And this might be my one chance to prove I’m more than a traitor—to my allies and myself.

But with the charming heir and the mysterious brooder along for the ride—two bad ideas I can barely resist—and a horror from my past rising from the ashes, I’m in way over my head. Will I win the day? Ha. The real question is, how much am I going to lose?

Traitor of Villain Academy is an urban fantasy trilogy set in the Villain Academy world, a couple of years after the events in Royals of Villain Academy. Enter here for magical conspiracies, an outcast heroine, and a fraught romance where she'll get to keep both her suitors. This set contains the entire trilogy: Crooked Magic, False Augury, and Rebel Destiny.

Traitor

First of all, shout out the author for a box set. 2nd this series was super fun. I enjoyed getting to see some of our favs from Rory's series, but really loved this new side of Cressida. Knowing her from the first series to now, it was great to see her growth. I loved getting see her with her guys, and naturally their relationship came together.

Slow start but good listen

For me it took a minute to get into the story. Once it picked up it was great. The guy that voiced Emerate seems like he was short of breath at times. He was very breathy. Overall I enjoyed the story. The action was great and the steamy moments were balanced out well.

Get rid of the male narrators

Loved the first book, tolerated the second book, and flat out could not stand to even finish the third book. The female narrator was great, I enjoyed her performance. Neither male was all that great, but one of them was so cringeworthy I could not stand to listen to his performance. This is not a preferance thing either, this was that he physically made me uncomfortable any time he spoke a dialog. Absolutely ruined a good book. I have listened to other books by Eva Chase that were fantastic. This review is solely about the male narrators.
