The Queen of Days

A Novel

De: Greta Kelly

Narrado por: Sunil Malhotra

From Greta Kelly, the author of the Warrior Witch duology, comes The Queen of Days, an epic adventure that weaves together a flawed-but-lovable family of thieves, a battle between fallen gods, and stakes high enough to cause vertigo—perfect for fans of The Lies of Locke Lamora and Six of Crows.

For Balthazar and his family of thieves, stealing a statue during the annual celebration of the god Karanis was just a good bit of fun…or a way to stick it to the governor who murdered his parents. And yeah, the small fortune in reward doesn’t hurt—even if his boss also hired the mysterious Queen of Days to join the crew as “the weapon of last resort...”

Whatever that means.

But Bal doesn’t know the ceremony isn’t simply empty words and dusty tradition; it’s true magic. The kind of magic that rips open a portal for the god himself. Only the idol that Karanis planned on using for a body now lies broken at the Queen of Days’ feet. And half of it is missing.

With the aid of a lovable brawler, a society lady turned bomb maker, a disgraced soldier, and a time-eating demon, Bal must hunt down the missing half of the statue if he has any hope of earning his money, keeping his crew alive…and perhaps even saving all of humanity. But as his journey sends him racing through the city—and across realities—he discovers that doing all this might just doom the city.

The city be damned. It’s time to kill a god.

good start can't finish

although this book was off to a good start, which I always enjoy by hour 12, I was bored senseless + lost interest in the story completely. the only reason I kept listening was the narrator was pretty good but I finally stopped with about 3 and 1/2 hours still to go because I just lost track of the story because it was so tedious. sorry

Must Read/Listen

A Fantasy Heist? Need I say more?! Amazing story with found family. Action packed & heart warming. Narrator was INCREDIBLY TALENTED. Bravo!

Had so much potential but couldn't finish

So to start with the positives. The world building is phenomenal. The reason I held on for so long was to see more of it. The idea of the main characters was awesome, but it fell flat in execution. I just didn't care about any of them.
I was not a big fan of the narrator. He did a decent job, but whenever he voiced Kai, I would physically flinch. There was just something about his choice of voice that was like nails on a chalkboard and immediately took me out of the scene.
I got about 5 hours in before I decided it wasn't worth it for me.

A phenomenal adventure!

A rag tag group with a leader of sinbad-like charm this book was just wonderful! I wasn’t sure what to expect and I loved every second of it. The narrator was endearing and did such a great job differentiating between characters. It’s a shame it just came out cus I’m ready for round 2!

wow!

this narration was wonderful! loved the voices and energy the narrator brought to this exciting and very eventful story! very very good!
