Narrado por: Emma Newman

The new season is starting and the Master of Ceremonies is missing. Max, an Arbiter of the Split Worlds Treaty, is assigned with the task of finding him - with no one to help but a dislocated soul and a mad sorcerer.

There is a witness, but his memories have been bound by magical chains only the enemy can break. A rebellious woman trying to escape her family may prove to be the ally Max needs.

But can she be trusted? And why does she want to give up eternal youth and the life of privilege she’s been born into?

Slow start, rewarding finish

This is a beautifully written book, read by its author. I admit to being unmotivated to listen continuously until a few hours into it, so it took me quite some time to finish. The pace really picked up and became utterly compelling about 1/3 of the way in. The last 2/3 of the book was a wonderful binge.

I enjoyed the world, the characters, and their unique conflicts.

hooray Emma!

I love Emma's stories and her great reading ability!! she's my new companion in audio world. 😍

Kept my attention even when I didn’t know what was going on

Well written and performed. It was a little confusing at first as I adjusted to the new world layout. But the story was interesting and sometimes captivating. The ending was confusing, however. I didn’t understand what was behind the scenes that resulted in the deaths being a non fae murderer, or how it tied together with everything else on the murder side.

The end of Kathryn’s hopes of escape were disappointing and abrupt. But I was pleased that she was being removed from her father’s care, by someone who was concerned for her welfare (William).

Overall a good story despite being a bit hard to follow, at times.

Wonder Full, long start(2/3 trds )

Wonder Full, long start(2/3tdd) good story ark. …,,,,,,…. :). ,,,.,, Words in front of a tree

Pleasantly surprised

I found this to be quite a solid story. There wasn't much action and yet I was totally captivated. The writing was good but what blew me away was her narration. Often when authors read their books, they tend to be bad but Emma was great.
