Captivating and action-packed, From Blood and Ash is a sexy, addictive, and unexpected fantasy perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Laura Thalassa.

A Maiden...

Chosen from birth to usher in a new era, Poppy’s life has never been her own. The life of the Maiden is solitary. Never to be touched. Never to be looked upon. Never to be spoken to. Never to experience pleasure. Waiting for the day of her Ascension, she would rather be with the guards, fighting back the evil that took her family, than preparing to be found worthy by the gods. But the choice has never been hers.

A Duty...

The entire kingdom’s future rests on Poppy’s shoulders, something she’s not even quite sure she wants for herself. Because a Maiden has a heart. And a soul. And longing. And when Hawke, a golden-eyed guard honor bound to ensure her Ascension, enters her life, destiny and duty become tangled with desire and need. He incites her anger, makes her question everything she believes in, and tempts her with the forbidden.

A Kingdom...

Forsaken by the gods and feared by mortals, a fallen kingdom is rising once more, determined to take back what they believe is theirs through violence and vengeance. And as the shadow of those cursed draws closer, the line between what is forbidden and what is right becomes blurred. Poppy is not only on the verge of losing her heart and being found unworthy by the gods, but also her life when every blood-soaked thread that holds her world together begins to unravel.

Loved Hawke.

Finished it in one day. It was a great day! All of the voices were great. And the story kept me listening.the sound design was incredible that people sound closer and farther away. It feels like you’re there.

How

How is it that the narrators can get almost EVERY NAME WRONG it is so FRUSTRATING!!! UGH!!!! I absolutely love this series but I'm very disappointed in the narrators they could have done some listening of the 1st Narrators. Then it wouldn't be so CRINGE to listen to this group of narrators.

Performance was just Okay

The performance was okay at the most. Casteel’s voice actor is perfect but poppy’s voice actor was not exciting at all. The pronunciation of Solis, Delano, Priests Analia and MANY maaany more is awful. Love the story, love the characters but performance of the voices were subpar.

Great Production of a Wonderful Series

This is an audiobook I come back to over and over again. I’ve read the entire series but I’m waiting with bated breath for the rest of these versions.

Exceptional Voice Actors!!!

Not only did this story get me hooked but the voice actors were absolutely exceptional!

Made the book even better!

So I'm obsessed with this series and the prequel series and could honestly read it and listen to it a million times. But this graphic audio version is soooo good!! And could the voice for Hawke be any hotter or more perfect? Like omg. Highly recommend getting back into this world with the dramatized version. Can't wait for the rest of the series to come out on GA and hopefully the shadow in the ember series too!

It’s OK…

The story has potential, but the inner monologues the FC has are not just boring but incredibly annoying. It’s the type that contracts itself every second - “ I want to this… but I don’t want to do this”… and so on and so on aaannnd so on. 😒 I actually had to fast forward many times during her inner monologues because it made want to pull my hairs out. I find it amazing that some people actually complained in their reviews that some of her monologues were cut out from the dramatized version. Good grief! What else could the FC have to say? Her banter is also childish and gets old quite fast. The male actors did a great job, 👏 The story is not that compelling to be dragged out like this. So, the book is not bad, but not great either.

In love!

I just love this series so much! I cannot get enough and will be sad when I am finished. The characters and storyline are so well written. The amazing cast of narrators has me so invested, feeling every emotion with such clarity. This has to be one of my all time favorite series so far, and I cannot imagine that will change. On to the next one!!!

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING

I had such a good time! I’ve already read this series and getting to experience it again this way was so great.
Big fan, loved it!!

overall decent reading

there are certain names that are mispronounced and it started to drive me crazy.
