An Heir Comes to Rise

An Heir Comes to Rise, Book 1

De: Chloe C. Peñaranda

Narrado por: Elizabeth Evans

A SWORD . . .

In the impoverished outer town of a kingdom where fae outrank humans, Faythe, an orphan with a talent for swordplay, knows the importance of keeping her head down around the fae patrol. She and best friend Jakon long for a better life, and her desire to swing her sword in combat may bring the purpose and coin she's yearned for.

A DREAM . . .

When she draws the attention of royal guard Nik, she soon learns that her mortal nature isn't the only reason to remain out of sight. Nik is a Nightwalker, a silent assassin of the mind with the power to enter others' dreams, and whether she trusts him or not, he's about to awaken abilities in Faythe that shouldn't exist in a human. Nightmarish abilities. Deadly abilities. Abilities that will teach Faythe blood really does run thicker than water . . . and if she doesn't trust in higher powers soon, blood will run indeed.

AN HEIR . . .

For this is no battle Faythe can fight with steel. Within the city walls, suspicions are arising, and here in the outer town she has deeper bonds to protect. It seems everyone will die with a dark secret to tell, but what if one unlikely human girl was born harboring the darkest secret of all . . . ?

Good read

The characters are likable and relatable. As the story unfolds it definitely gives a more expedited TOG feel.

Basic Human Becomes More

I enjoyed listening to this book and thought the narrator did a wonderful job at telling the story. Unfortunately, I thought the story fell flat. Though intriguing in its premise, most things that happen are predictable. I also didn’t come away with this with the need to continue on to the next books to find out what happens. I will finish the series, but I’m not in a rush to finish as this story just fell flat for me.

S.J. Maas fans would love this!

I loved this so much! I can't wait for the next audiobooks to come out. This was a perfect listen after listening to the ACOTAR series, Crescent City series and the Throne of Glass series. I love that Elizabeth Evans narrated this too. Looking forward to the next book.

SJM Dupe

Feels very similar to a SJM series if you’re looking to scratch that itch. A bit predictable and lacks a general character development, but very entertaining and fun to listen to. Looking forward to the rest of the series.

Absolutely loved!

I absolutely LOVED this book! The pacing, the lore, the world building and fullness in the characters are clearly setting up an incredible journey ahead. Faythe is a relatable FMC who is both bad ass and kind. I can’t wait to see her unveil her full potential. I was on board cheering for her quickly and I’m so glad I already had the next book waiting because I had to start it IMMEDIATELY because I need to know what happens next! This author knows how to leave Easter eggs and shock you with a plot twist which I absolutely love. I’m guessing the reread once I finish this series will be incredible! Anyhoo GTG read book 2 IMMEDIATELY and ignore all real world responsibilities!

10/10 recommend the audiobook which is narrated by my favorite narrator of all time Elizabeth Evans! Also get the hardcovers, they are STUNNING even under the already pretty dust jackets!! Obsessed 🤩

Thank you

I'm so grateful to find another book narrated by Elizabeth Evans! Why isn't she narrating the entire series?
So far this Elizabeth is doing well. May the rest of this series be as good as book 1. Again thank you.

Can’t wait to keep reading!!

I really enjoyed this book! I love the narrator so much. Elizabeth Evans does a great job on this!
The story is more than enough fantasy to get behind with some plot twists I could not have seen coming! Would recommend and am buying the sequel now!

A very big surprise

Wonderful edit g
Wonderful characters
Wonderful twists
You really come to care about the people
A little too much fighting for my liking. It everything else was excellent ... not too racy ... just right

Hmmm

This book was a set up for the rest I’m hoping . This book is not bad by any stretch but we are hovering on the line of full break through or meh. I love the characters, I love the romance and I love me some Elizabeth Evans. I haven’t heard one book I haven’t liked her reading. I just am hopeful that we get more answers and more action.

enjoyable

This is very much a build series. In this book it is that awakening and learning yourself for the main character. You also are just touching the surface of the companions as well.
Like with most things the down side is it's a lot of building up to what's to come so enjoyable yes but I can wait on the next book. (still will come back to find out what happens of course just no feeling to rush)
