These Immortal Truths

De: Rachelle Raeta

Narrado por: Olivia King

DELUXE EDITION—a gorgeous hardcover edition featuring sprayed edges!

Both epic and intimate, These Immortal Truths is an enchanting and romantic historical fantasy that explores not only what it means to live forever, but what it means to truly live.

“Did I not tell you, Anna? Death will not come for you.”

Anna is used to hunger and hardship. Ever since the pale shadows on her skin were mistaken for leprosy, she has lived alone in exile, each day focused only on survival.

Then a single act of kindness towards a beautiful stranger changes her life forever.

Suddenly, neither time nor harm can touch her, and Anna strives to embrace a life with boundless potential, one that isn’t only about survival. But as decades and centuries pass, she is continually forced to abandon each new life before it has the chance to feel like home.

The only constant in her eternal existence is Khiran—the shapeshifting god who gave her immortality. No matter the years or distance, he always finds her when she most needs him.

But there is more to immortality than Anna knows, and as she travels the ages, she will discover the beauty—and cost—of a life without end.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"These Immortal Truths is a gorgeous meditation on love, life, and the inexorable passage of time. Rachelle Raeta is an absolute poet, and I'm already eagerly anticipating her next book."—Kate Quinn, New York Times bestselling author of The Briar Club

"Beautiful, haunting, and healing, this book will sweep you through centuries as it envelops your heart. Wonderful and unforgettable!"—Sarah Beth Durst, New York Times bestselling author of The Spellshop

"These Immortal Truths is a wonderful novel and a fascinating examination of the blessings and the curses of a life that never ends. Rachelle Raeta has created a stunningly original heroine who marches through centuries of life and love with courage and compassion. Rich with history and magic, this compelling and poignant tale is not to be missed."—Louisa Morgan, author of A Secret History of Witches

“These Immortal Truths has imprinted itself onto my skin. Rachelle Raeta’s new novel is a brilliant and gripping new take on the mythology of immortality. It follows Anna and Khiran through more than eight hundred years, and who, despite their powers and their immortality, remain all too human, with all the flaws and joys and messiness that entails. Raeta’s writing fairly sparkles on the page, but it is her unerring attention to detail to every century and every country that allows the reader to completely inhabit Anna’s world. The sounds, the smells, the clothes, are rendered stunningly real as you walk beside Anna who serves as both witness to, and participant in, the beauty and the horrors of humanity. This book will haunt you long after the last page is turned.”—Rita Woods, award-winning author of Remembrance

"I thoroughly enjoyed this sweeping tale of love and loss, healing and heartbreak. Anna's empathy and compassion for others made her a heroine I was delighted to spend centuries with."—Serra Swift, author of Kill the Beast

"Rachelle Raeta weaves an epic and romantic tapestry—one of lush prose and rich historical detail, and of characters who will break your heart in one century and put it back together in the next. I adored this book."—Bel Banta, author of The Court of Venus

"For several weeks after reading I was replaying scenes in my head. . . . The stay-up-past-your-bedtime-to-finish kind of good."—Smart Bitches, Trashy Books

Kept me interested

I’ve fallen into a bit of an audiobook slump and this has gotten me out of it. Great story and characters. Great narration. I want more!

Beautiful!!!

I love the originality of this story. I am looking forward to the next book.

Five Stars

Wow! I adored every single word of this story. It had highs and lows, yearning, found family, live, heartbreak… it was so well written. The ebook and audiobook were perfection!!!

i’m???

This is the first book I’ve felt obligated to write a review for and I think it’s in my top 5 favorite books of all time. It’s so wonderfully written I want to scream!!! I’ve been burnt out on ~romantasy~ stuff feeling like most of it is just…smut with a tiny bit of plot thrown in but this was a breath of fresh air. Slllooowwwww burn in the BEST way without feeling forced or like I knew what corny thing was going to happen. The chemistry between the two gave me butterflies, kicking my feet and GIGGLING. Suspenseful moments had me audibly gasp!!Beautiful and heartbreaking, I’ve never boohoo ugly sobbed while listening to a book, not like this. The chapters that took place in Italy and France??! (iykyk) omggggggg EMOTIONAL DAMAGE but again in the best way.

I think my only complaint is that this is a duology, I wish this was like 5 or 6 books!!! I need more of these characters, more of the story aaaaaaahhh I don’t want it to end 😭😭😭😭😭😭

Poetic

It was very beautiful, if you want a historical fiction, with the subplot of romance, and a TOUCH of fantasy.

It hurt so good

Absolutely adored this listen. The characters had great chemistry and I loved Anna sm! The story is tragic in the best way.

Addictive as it is juicy!!!

I couldn’t put the book down when I read it and I couldn’t stop listening to it just the same! The story feeds my enjoyment of historical fiction, my soul for fantasy, my heart for romance, my mind for suspense, and my emotions for tragedy! More than once I got goosebumps, gasps slip my lips, tears fall from my eyes, pause with intense focus, and difficulty to stop and be present in reality. I’m itching for part 2 to become available on audio!!
