The Contest

De: K.E. Ganshert

Narrado por: K.E. Ganshert

In a world of haves and have nots, where petty crime is punishable by death and magic is forbidden, a deadly contest unfolds in secret. Twelve competitors are mysteriously invited. The winner gets one wish.

For Briar Bishop, this means saving her brother from execution by guillotine, and she’s not going to let anything or anyone get in her way. Especially not Leo Davenbrook, a mischievous flirt and the handsome High Prince. He's grown up with everything she never had and his very presence threatens her chance at survival. She has no idea a darker battle wages in secret, one that could lead to a fate far worse than the death of her brother.

Great for Fans of The Hunger Games

It was fascinating getting to hear this story read by the author, hearing her intonations. I had read the story already but knew I wanted to listen as well. It was really well done. I loved the story and how the past and present came together.

The perfect dystopian

I absolutely loved listening to this book! It was such a perfect balance of romance, action, intrigue and excitement. I enjoyed every minute because the pacing of the book was so well thought out, and I really admire the authors ability to create such dynamic characters. I would absolutely recommend. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
