Silvercloak

De: L. K. Steven

Narrado por: Saffron Coomber

In this addictive new fantasy series set in a world where magic is fueled by pleasure and pain, an obsessive detective infiltrates a brutal gang of dark mages—knowing that one wrong move will get her killed. . . .

“A dazzling (and frequently sizzling) new fantasy.” —Kiersten White, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Lucy Undying

Two decades ago, the Bloodmoons ruthlessly murdered Saffron Killoran’s parents, destroying her idyllic childhood. Hell-bent on revenge, she lies her way into Silvercloak Academy—the training ground for her city’s elite order of detectives—with a single goal: to bring the Bloodmoons to justice.

But when Saff’s deception is exposed, rather than being cast out, she’s given a rare opportunity: to go undercover and tear the Bloodmoons down from the inside.

Descending into a world where pleasure and pain are the most powerful currencies, Saff must commit some truly heinous deeds to keep her cover—and her life. Not only are there rival gangs and sinister smuggling rings to contend with, but there’s also her growing feelings for the kingpin’s tortured son, with his vicious pet fallowwolf, his dark past, and the curious prophecy foretelling his death at Saffron’s hand.

With each day testing her loyalties further, Saff finds her web of lies becoming harder to spin. And when one false step could destroy everything and everyone she’s ever loved . . . the detective who’s dedicated her life to vengeance just might die for it.

Excellent! Can't wait for the next one

The plot had me hooked the whole way through. I can't wait to see where the story goes next

Interesting

This book has an intriguing magic system and plot. We’re given a lot of information about the main characters which really made the story come to life. I feel like it’s a cross between a mafia and fantasy genre and IT’S FANTASTIC! I can’t wait for the sequel!!!!

Actually High Stakes

Thoroughly enjoyed Silvercloak. Great world building. Great characters. One of the few books I've listened to recently that actually feels high stakes and suspenseful.

Best book of the year, unexpected

This book gave heavy nods to Harry Potter but was able to be its own thing. It’s hands down the best book I read all year. I only wish I didn’t pick it up this year so I could read the whole series at once.

Loved

I hope this book blows up so much we get a duet style read in the rest of the series. The narrator chosen for levan is not it. The guy sounds too old. Please get a new narrator. I haven’t had a book make me gasp as much as this one in a long long time. I’m a hoe for time travel but this one just hit different. Can’t wait for the next installment.
