Historia
Princess Annika has lived a life of comfort—but no amount of luxuries can change the fact that her life isn’t her own to control. The king, once her loving father, has gone cold, and Annika will soon be forced into a loveless marriage for political gain. Miles away, small comforts are few and far between for Lennox. He has devoted his life to the Dahrainian army, hoping to one day help them reclaim the throne that was stolen from them. For Lennox, the idea of love is merely a distraction—nothing will stand in the way of fighting for his people.

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.

My whole world changed when I stepped inside the academy. Nothing is right about this place or the other students in it. Here I am, a mere mortal among gods...or monsters. I still can't decide which of these warring factions I belong to, if I belong at all. I only know the one thing that unites them is their hatred of me. Then there's Jaxon Vega. A vampire with deadly secrets who hasn't felt anything for a hundred years. But there's something about him that calls to me, something broken in him that somehow fits with what's broken in me. Which could spell death for us all.

Could have had a lot more back story and been longer even for a novella. I felt like I didn't get my money's worth.

Short But Sweet
I was wondering how Cass could pull off a likeable Prince Clarkson. I was impressed that she didn't change his character, and made no excuses for him either. His love for Amberly made sense. Very well written for a novella.

I wanted the backstory first.
I listened to this book to help me determine whether or not to listen to the Selection series. It held my interest enough so I will. I usually prefer mysteries but I like to occasionally mix things up a bit. I am looking forward to listening to the series.

The narrator was kind of annoying
The voice she used for the most other female characters was shrill. The story was good though. It really explained a lot about the relationship between Amberly and Clarkson.

Outstanding Narration!
What made the experience of listening to The Queen the most enjoyable?
As the narrator, Rachel made each character's voice distinct. She made it so easy to know when a new character was speaking which provided for a really enjoyable listening experience.
What did you like best about this story?
I haven't read the rest of the Selection series, and this book made me want to read more.
Have you listened to any of Rachel F. Hirsch’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I also listened to THE ICE CAPTAIN'S DAUGHTER. That book required various accents as well. I was really impressed with (in both books) how she was able to make each voice sound so different, and how the voices she used in the two books differed from each other.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I didn't have an extreme reaction. I just enjoyed it.
Any additional comments?
I look forward to listening to more books narrated by Rachel F. Hirsch because she is not monotone, she is easy to listen to, and she does great character voices. My only complaint about the book is I enjoyed the book so much I wish it were longer!

Must Read for Selection Series
I have been reading the selection series for about 2 months and even though it did put me in a slump I finished the 2 of the books so far, the selection and Elite. This book however is a prequel to the books and tells a story of how the queen now went through the her own selection competition with the prince now King. I won’t give any spoilers, it is very much a novella short but does give a look as to how the Queens character is portrayed in the actual novels. This series gives Hunger Games meets the Bachelor meets the movie In Time with Justin Timberlake. It is not an omg I need this series in my life moment but I throughly enjoy these as it is giving character building back stories
