'It's the arrogance of men to think so little of women. And it'll be their downfall, too.'

Locked away in a castle on the snowy mountains in the Sixth Kingdom of Orea, I have never known freedom.

No one can get in or out. Apart from him.

King Midas, who rescued me from the streets. Who gave me food, shelter, and his heart. Who I promised to love forever.

But when political upheaval sees me sent across kingdoms to a future I no longer understand, everything I thought I knew about King Midas is shattered...

The world has only ever heard his story.

Now it's time to hear mine.

It’s ok

This series has been on my tbr-list forever. I’ve been very excited about finally starting this because I’ve heard a lot of good things about the series.

After finishing the first book in this series, I’m a little… underwhelmed. Unfortunately, to me, this didn’t get interesting or wasn’t that exciting, until a little past the halfway mark. The last part of this book was absolutely where things got interesting. The first part was moving along slowly with not really that much happening. This was definitely a book that’s setting up for the rest of the following books. I’m still engaged and curious about this story and will continue with the next installment.

Also, Sail. I cannot leave a review without mentioning him. He was honorable and pure. He made a presence for sure.

On to the next one!

Read this only so you can read the second one!

I kind of dragged myself through this book I didn’t like any of the characters, auren seems very stupid and I don’t know what she wants with Midas. However after reading the second book, I get why the first book is like this. So if you can’t get a grip on this, just keep on going, the second one is where things start to pick up, the plot evolves and you start to understand why the first book has to be this way. I’ve only read book 2 so far but just finished it and now I’m hooked and can’t wait to download the third. PS auren finds her brain in the second book so far I’m recommending this series and I love the narrator. The spice is not my cup of tea as it’s mostly rape or close to it but I have a feeling/ the hope that in book three it might turn into somewhat more consented spice

One of the best books I’ve consumed this year

I hope the whole saga doesn’t disappoint, but the story and the performance were literally GOLD 🫶🏻✨

I’m not sure

When I first started listening, I didn’t know if I would enjoy this book or not. It seemed like Auren had almost Stockholm syndrome towards King Midas. She was caged up, but yet longed for him. It just didn’t make any sense and even though the story progressed, I still feel like there’s something missing like the story wasn’t presented fully in the first book about how their relationship started to where it was in the beginning of the book. I think the adventure and her making friends with the guards was a great storyline, but I don’t know if I want to find out what happens next or not. It is intriguing, but is it worth the money?

Good, but nasal

Good story, but... the voice actress seemed to be sick when she recorded this, and some of the editions were very noticeable, as the volume was different and it had a different background noise.

I don’t understand the hype

This book was famous on insta and ticktock between readers and it was highly recommended by many. However I don’t understand why!!

Captivating story

The story is captivating and interesting. The world is little reveled with hint of vast and magical building. The voice of the main heroine is wonderful.

All the feels while reading this

Loved this so much, can't wait to continue the series. I have so many questions and theories. The FMC is absolutely amazing. She is funny and serious at the same time. I enjoyed her inner monologs so much

This is golden magic

This narrator is much better than the other edition.
Adult fantasy at its best

Meh

Narrator did a great job. The world building felt unfinished and left me wanting. Very slow moving, character development was underwhelming. Honestly at some point I put the reading speed to 2 just to get to the end
