Blade of Secrets

De: Tricia Levenseller

Narrado por: Emily Ellet

"Emily Ellet offers an unflinching and elegant performance of this audiobook...Ellet's vocal versatility and steady pace capture several characters seamlessly while guiding listeners through budding romance, anxiety attacks, and the steadfast strength of a character who proves herself even at her worst." (AudioFile Magazine)

In Blade of Secrets, the first audiobook in Tricia Levenseller's exciting new YA fantasy duology, a teenage blacksmith with social anxiety is forced to go on the run to protect the world from the most powerful magical sword she's ever made.

Eighteen-year-old Ziva prefers metal to people. She spends her days tucked away in her forge, safe from society and the anxiety it causes her, using her magical gift to craft unique weapons imbued with power.

Then Ziva receives a commission from a powerful warlord, and the result is a sword capable of stealing its victims secrets. A sword that can cut far deeper than the length of its blade. A sword with the strength to topple kingdoms. When Ziva learns of the warlord’s intentions to use the weapon to enslave all the world under her rule, she takes her sister and flees.

Joined by a distractingly handsome mercenary and a young scholar with extensive knowledge of the world’s known magics, Ziva and her sister set out on a quest to keep the sword safe until they can find a worthy wielder or a way to destroy it entirely.

After awhile…

I appreciate the representation in this book and this author is a fantastic storyteller, but the mc started becoming unlikeable because of constant whining and no real growth. She ends up my least favorite.

Great Storytelling

A wonderful book with an excellent narrator! The ending will make you beg for more and the next book!

wonderful

This was more of a 4.5 star read for me. The narrator was excellent. And you can't go wrong with a Tricia Levenseller story.

This is a fun, action filled adventure with characters to love and a world that pulls you right in.

still liked it

the heroine after a time , instead of getting stronger( some ways she did get stronger) , continued to be so whiney it made me want to shake her

Amazing

The book was absolutely wonderful. I actually read(listened) to it twice. A second time so I can be prepared for the sequel. The reader did an excellent job, I like audio books but I am very picky with my readers. There’s been many books I’ve refused to listen to no matter how good the book because the reader was not up to par. As far as the book, I finished it within a week the first time and 3 days the second time. It’s the perfect book to get lost into. T. Levenseller is my favorite author by far and the only one that I will buy the book on preorder and know exactly when it comes out. Read it! You won’t regret it.

Cant wait for 2nd book

Loved the chemistry between all the characters! Levenseller’s descriptions of anxiety were very well written. I have already pre-ordered the next book to the series. The cliff hanger at the end was a perfect way to end the book in my opinion. Leaves me wanting more without it feeling awkward at the end. I cant wait to read more about their journey.

Amazing.

Amazing Novel. Beautiful and very entertaining from page 1 till the end. Emily Ellet (the narrator) did an outstanding job in narrating the entire book. She kept us engaged from the start till the end.

Can't wait for book 2.

HAD ME HOOKED

Don't think just read. Might not seem interesting at first but trust me it gets there.

Another great book by Tricia Levenseller

Tricia Levenseller has never done me wrong with any of her books - each is as fun and enjoyable and as much of a reality break as the last and oh, she did such a great job writing these characters! 5/5 stars, can’t wait for her next book.

MY FAVORITE BOOK EVER

The anxiety rep, sisterhood, found family, and witty banter all make this such a worthwhile read for me! And the narrator does an amazing job with distinguishing each character and infusing heart and humor. I will be rereading this forever 🙌
