A Kingdom of Souls and Shadows

Fae Destiny, Book 1

De: Leslie O’Sullivan

Narrado por: Felicity Munroe

All her life, Eala Duir, a young college professor, has skirted the edges of a fantasy world.

Visions of folk stories coming alive in hearth flames, and vivid daydreams where carousel horses ride off to battle, drove Eala to pursue an academic life specializing in tales of the Fae.

When a cryptic message in her grandmother's will sends her to Ireland, Eala clashes with Sionnach Loho, an attractive, enigmatic local expert on folklore. After witnessing Eala's encounter with a ghost girl at an allegedly haunted castle, Sionnach reveals his own ties to the Fae realm. He insists Eala's ability to connect with the supernatural proves she's been sent to partner with him and fulfill a centuries-old otherworldly quest ordained by the mighty Finnbheara, King of the Connacht Fae.

As folktales and faeries collide with Eala's reality, she must decide whether to embrace the fantastic or flee back to the safe and predictable life she thought she always wanted.

A lush world with romance and magic

The story is amazing as are the characters and the reader really brings the main character to life. I feel like I was on a trip to Ireland.

Charming characters and great Irish folklore

“O’Sullivan’s writing is rich with metaphors. The story from reality to the secret veil so seamless, you believe it’s truly possible. A Kingdom of Souls and Shadows is full of charming characters, intriguing Celtic folklore and a delicious slow-burn romance.” Dana Elmendorf, author of In the Hour of Crows, a GMA Buzz Pick

Fae

I enjoyed this as an audio book. Love all the Irish folk lore. Eala goes to Ireland. There she meets Sionnach. They don’t get along at first. On their adventure she learns somethings about herself and Sionnach. She is ment to help Sionnach with his quest by the King of the Fae Finnbheara. They have a limited time to finish their quest. Will they finish in time?
