Empire of Flame and Thorns

Flame and Thorns, Book 1

De: Marion Blackwood

Narrado por: Laura Horowitz

A fae rebel. A ruthless dragon commander.

And a deadly trial that will turn their lives upside down.

Trapped in the Seelie Court by a forest of thorns, Selena Hale lives at the mercy of the dragon shifters. Her only chance to gain her freedom is by entering the Atonement Trials: a deadly competition that pits fae magic users against each other. Only three people can win, and Selena intends to be one of them.

There is only one problem. Draven Ryat, the ruthless commander of the dragon shifter army, is determined to make her lose.

He symbolizes everything that she hates, and if he finds out that she is also a member of the secret fae rebellion, he will not only mess with her chances to win, he will kill her. But the more time she spends with him, the more she finds herself inexplicably drawn to him.

And nothing is more dangerous in a lethal trial than a distracted heart.

Especially one that beats for the enemy…

A good twist !

aside from the insufferably, spineless fmc, i rather enjoyed this book. i wouldn’t call this enemies to lovers tho, more like mildly annoyed or inconvenient, but still a pretty interesting read. i wish the fmc would use her powers more and stop being a doormat tho

Everything you could want from a romantasy

Fae, dragon shifters, elemental magic, mind magic, deadly trials and games, slow burn, angst, tension and banter everything a good romantasy book should have!

Couldn’t put it down

I love the narrator! She just captures everything so beautifully and the story line was nice. I’m actually upset that the next books don’t have any date referencing to when they’ll be available to listen to.

Engaging and good vibes

While the "reveal" was pretty obvious I thought the overall story was engaging and I will definitely get book two!

Better then I thought!

Very surprised, it was alittle slow to start but picked up- unexpected twist at the end. Can’t wait for book two!!!
