Ildri & the Echoes of Trees

De: Krystal Bailey

Narrado por: Clémence Legrand

A mysterious theft, a hidden heir, and an unbreakable bond.

A full-moon night always leads to mischief, yet one night changes everything—the fateful night the Raven Queen invades the elvish kingdom of Treelock, leaving none alive. Only Ildri, the secret heir born of an elvish king and a human mother, survives.

Saved by her mother's ingenuity, Ildri is hidden among her mother's kin in her home village. Her mother's parting gift: a shroud of secrecy, concealing her true identity, even from herself.

In the quaint village of Kel-green, Ildri struggles to find her place, even with her best friend, Matthew Merrick, and her supposed twin, Kirana, at her side. But a monstrous raven emerging from the forest's depth causes Ildri's world to spiral into chaos, opening questions that can only be answered by forsaking the home and family she thought she knew.

In a world of elves, humans, and elemental magic, Ildri must unravel the secrets of her past and find a way to reclaim her home.

Can we make a movie adaptation already?!

Be prepared to get completely lost in a rich fantasy world of magic, elves and dragons! I was riveted the entire time by the story and could hardly keep myself from binge-listening except I didn’t want the story to be over so soon. The author does a wonderful job of transporting you to a new world, developing characters and storylines you feel fully invested in, and telling a story that will keep you listening till the end. Ildri is the beginning of a series and I can’t wait to get my hands on the next book. Downloading and listening to this wonderful story is the easy part; being patient for the next installment is the challenge. 🤓.

Refreshing heroine, beautiful love story

This is a beautifully written story that transported me to mysterious woods, lonely sea shores, glittering caves, dark passages, vast oceans, through glowing portals, and in all the seen and unseen powers that come from discovering one’s magical heritage and abilities. The heroine in this book is refreshing. She is quiet, humble, and kind, but when her power is needed, she learns to deliver large and loud.
The love story that weaves itself throughout the book is a delightful slow burn. Having the perspective of both characters made me root for them even harder! The narrator did a great job with both perspectives. I can’t wait for the next book in this series!

it has it all!

I'm already waiting for the next one! Couldn't put it down a few times, it kept surprising me. Great world building and I loved that it had a little of everything.

Fantastic read!!!

Once I entered the world that author Krystal Bailey created- I could not stop! What a captivating story filled with all the fantasy elements we all know and love, but written in a whole new light. The characters were beautifully written and I thoroughly enjoyed that the chapters were from the perspective of each character. It kept things interesting as you saw the story through all of their eyes. I cannot wait to read the next installment of this series and find out what happens to Ildri!

This is one of the better fantasy stories I read in a while!

I highly recommend this series. It feels completely new and perfectly classic fantasy all at the same time!!
