Book 5

De: Melanie Cellier

Narrado por: Shiromi Arserio

A Spoken Mage companion novel

When a Sekali princess unexpectedly bursts into Elena and Lucas’s betrothal celebrations, Ardann is forced to send a team to investigate her claims of a new enemy. The last thing Saffron expects, or wants, is to be called on to assist. But she can’t risk disgracing her family by refusing to join the expedition.

Julian, on the other hand, leaps at the chance to distinguish himself and gain favor with the Sekalis by helping the princess. What he doesn’t expect is to find himself equally interested in the chance to prove himself to an inconsequential Callinos girl he’s only ever thought of as Finnian’s shadow.

But the further the team goes into the mountains, the more mysteries they uncover. And with their usual defenses and compositions inexplicably failing, Saffron and Julian will have to rely on each other if they’re to defend their kingdom and escape with both their hearts and lives intact.

If you enjoy strong heroines, fantasy worlds, adventure, intrigue, and romance, then try the Spoken Mage series now!

A good stand alone or completion of a series

It’s a good listen if you had listen to the Spoken Mage series it wraps up a lot of lose ends and it’s fun.
If you haven’t listened to the series it’s still a great listen either reason it’s fun, mystery, romance and conflict on several levels. I enjoyed it

fantasy romance novel

The audiobook is well made, no complaints about the quality of the narration. This story is slightly different from the others set in the same world (spoken mage and hidden mage series'). It is written more in a style of a traditional romance novel compared to the style of a fantasy novel as the others were. This one switches between the male and female perspective which is not uncommon in romance fiction. I'm not sure why anyone reviewed it stating that this switch or change was confusing to the story. It was perfectly easy to follow and the story moves seamlessly with no difficult to comprehend who is narrating or interruption to the story line. My one complaint is that it does feel like the two characters are quick to identify their feelings as love, but again this isn't unusual for a romance novel. The story is also significantly shorter, being one stand-alone novel compared to a multi novel series, than the others so I don't think the reviews that complain about this fact as a major issue to the story are being fair on that point. Obviously from the beginning you expect the two protagonists will find their way together (it was indicated in the final spoken mage story so that shouldn't be a spoiler or shock). The story still holds a lot of fantasy elements that are surprising and overall it's a very enjoyable read. It's my least favorite in the related series books (personally I like the hidden mage series' the best) but it's fully worth reading and enjoying. I would love to read more stories set in this fantasy world Cellier created here. I hope to see more in the future and you should definitely buy and enjoy this book.

So cute!

By far my favorite out of the entire series! Love Julian & Saffron ❤️ the narrator did a great job too, this was a fun companion novel.

Story Recommendations

I have Very much have enjoyed the Entire Mage Series!!! It had been completely Addictive . Can’t wait for more

So sweet!

Another masterpiece by Melanie cellier! This books was so amazingly written and narrated!
The story was so good

Different but very good!

It was nice to hear from the view of others. I think this may be the end of the series but I hope it isn't. I would love to go on another exciting adventure with the spoken mage.

Love the series

This book was a fantastic companion to the series, each chapter named who was speaking unfortunately it was still hard to to keep track.I do hope there are more books to come!!!

great way to finish the series

although the story was quick and very to the point it was a good wrap up for the spoken Mage series. as always the voice shiromi arserio was amazing and helps you connect with the character so well.

the duel narration makes my heart pitter patter

I love having the double view of each of the characters because they notice different things in their environment /story and the embarrassing reasons for their reactions.

I liked it!

It was very enjoyable and fits in well with the other books in the series.
