Bound by Firelight

De: Dana Swift

Narrado por: Priya Ayyar, Assaf Cohen, Dana Swift

The heart-pounding sequel to Cast in Firelight, perfect for fans of epic, sweepingly romantic fantasy by Sabaa Tahir, Susan Dennard, and Mary E. Pearson.


After a magical eruption devastates the kingdom of Belwar, royal heir Adraa is falsely accused of masterminding the destruction and forced to stand trial in front of her people, who see her as a monster. Adraa's punishment? Imprisonment in the Dome, an impenetrable, magic-infused fortress filled with Belwar’s nastiest criminals—many of whom Adraa put there herself. And they want her to pay.

Jatin, the royal heir to Naupure, has been Adraa’s betrothed, nemesis, and fellow masked vigilante . . . but now he’s just a boy waiting to ask her the biggest question of their lives. First, though, he’s going to have to do the impossible: break Adraa out of the Dome. And he won’t be able to do it without help from the unlikeliest of sources—a girl from his past with a secret that could put them all at risk.

Time is running out, and the horrors Adraa faces in the Dome are second only to the plot to destabilize and destroy their kingdoms. But Adraa and Jatin have saved the world once already. . . . Now, can they save themselves?

Reseñas de la Crítica

"This sequel picks up with pure romance, fast-paced action and witty banter that will surely keep readers hooked from the start. Not only do Adraa and Jatin grow exponentially as characters, but readers will find themselves rooting for their relationship and seeing where it will go next. Fans of the first will fall in love with this one, as they speed through the chapters and near the satisfying end."—Aurora Dominguez, Frolic and Book Riot contributor

"Satisfyingly packed with emotional insights, epic magic duels, and twisty intrigue."—Kirkus Reviews

Excellent Ending to this Duo

The story of Wickery wraps up in this second book. New characters are interesting. The mystery of what's going on that Adraa and Jatin started in book 1 is resolved believably after some interesting twists. Adraa learns a lot about herself and by the end I thought both she and Jatin had grown in believable ways at a believable pace. The narrators did a good job, but I would have liked a little more acting or ability to tell various characters apart in dialogue.

Sequel Success
