Resumen del Editor

With her 18th birthday fast approaching, crown princess Josselyn deLure knows it’s her duty to choose a husband, but that doesn't mean she has to be happy about it. She'd much rather be practicing her swordplay with her best friend, Edmund, or teasing her straight-laced guard, Alex. Marriage isn't exactly high on her list of priorities.

But Josselyn isn't your typical princess, and this isn't your typical fairytale story. When a plot to overthrow the kingdom sends her fleeing for her life, Josselyn will discover just how different she truly is as the ancient, celestial magic dwelling beneath her marked skin emerges in the most startling of ways. Will she be strong enough to face the darkness there and save her kingdom? Or will she crumple under the weight of self-doubt?

Celestial beasts, steamy dances, and a fierce-as-hell warrior princess all mark the exciting first installment of E.P. Stavs's The Shendri Series.

A wonderful YA fantasy!

I love this series, and I’m so excited to see it come to life in an audiobook. Carol Beth Anderson does a fantastic job with narration, and of course, the story remains great.

So glad this fantasy adventure is on audible!

As a HUGE audiobook nerd, I’m so thrilled The Marked Princess is in audible now! And Carol Beth Anderson’s narration absolutely brought this to life for me. This is the first book I’ve heard narrated by her, but I will definitely be on the look out for more of her narration!

As for the story itself, characters totally made this book for me. I absolutely loved the main-character, Josselyn, and her banter with the other characters was just so much fun to read. I really enjoyed EP Stavs' flowing, fast-paced writing style, and I flew through this book in two days. The concept of the celestial beasts was intriguing, and the lore that went into them was great to dive into. I'd definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a smoothly written, fantasy adventure with great characters.

Fabulous Fantasy

This was my first experience with E.P. Stavs' work, and I enjoyed it very much. Once I started the audiobook, I had to listen until the end. The story was charming. The plot was fast paced. The characters were magical. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series. Carol Beth Anderson's narration was fine and kept my attention. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review.

Amazing YA fantasy

The Marked Princess is a magical story that I could not put down!

Featuring a fearless princess with a magical gift, a heroic guard, and an evil prince, this story had everything I’ve ever wanted in a fantasy!

Every character was fully fleshed out and amazingly written. Our heroes were all strong and lovable, yet with flaws and aspects of their personalities that made them relatable and the villains were the sort of people you love to hate.

The lore of this fantasy world was unique and intriguing. I have read a lot of YA fantasy books and the magic and powers of this world was something I had never read before.

The romance aspect was my favorite part of this! It was amazing watching Josselyn struggle with her sense of duty, friendship, and love. And Alex - god I wanted to shake him at times but I adored him as well. In fact he might be my favorite character in this story. His devotion and love for Josselyn was so admirable and even though it made him thick headed at times he always had her best interests at heart.

I first read this book over a year ago and listening to the narration was so enjoyable. Carol Beth Anderson brought every character to life and added another dimension to this already wonderful world.

I highly recommend this to any fans of YA fantasy or romance. This is a series you don’t want to miss!
