Resumen del Editor

“Peril never shined so bright.”

For 17-year-old Princess Amethysta Serelle, the royal life is anything but enchanting.

She finds herself forever torn between duty and desire - desperately craving freedom, yet bound by the burden of her bloodline. With the realm of Vataenya divided by intolerance and stained by a veiled and violent past, none take kindly to those who are different. For Amethysta’s sake, her mother must conceal her daughter’s mystifying secret from all - including from Amethysta herself.

Once driven to her wit’s end, Amethysta sets out on an unrelenting search for answers that will leave her teetering on the very edge of anguish and strife. With each harrowing turn, Amethysta encounters devastating loss, uncovers the mortifying unknown, and comes face-to-face with the calamitous heartache that awaits her.

All the while, an enigmatic blue glow sleeps below the surface, ready to unfold a world of chaos.

Very interesting

I like this book very much the story , character, and the atmosphere overall. but there where some parts that dragged on a little to much but it would get even more exciting as it continued with other envounters along the way. Overall i would say this is a very good story to listen to again and cant wait for the second book.

Excellent Narration and Fun Story

The world Sara Secora built was intriguing, while clearer and more accessible than a lot of epic fantasies tend to be.

I thought Holly Lindin brought even more life to the characters.

Enchanting story!

This story starts off strong from the beginning. I was instantly drawn in and excited by all the magical elements and characters. Amethysta was a wonderful leading character. She majorly develops and changes for the better throughout the story, learning to accept herself. She’s relatable and easy to cheer on. I also loved some of the smaller characters and how they were intertwined in the story, especially Ark and Soren. The villain was wonderfully written and exciting to watch unfold. The kingdom of Northwind was enchanting! I loved the detail Sara shared and the picture she painted of the setting. I’m eager to read the next books to see if she mentions more about the other kingdoms, especially the mermaid kingdom!! Overall I really loved the book, and can’t wait for book two! I was given this novel in exchange for an honest review.

When's the next book come out?!!!

Holly Lindin did an amazing job in voicing over this book! Just really made it come alive!

Sara Secora did a beautiful job writing this story. It took me a while to get into the the book but it all came together well at the end.
Being a writer myself I know you have to explain things to have it make sense.

Arc is my favorite character! Love that he has a Scottish accent. And he's a bad a** with magic!

The princess seems a bit of a spoiled brat at times but I guess that's just her as the character.

I feel bad for Soron. I am afraid he will get his feelings hurt in the next book to come .
But I have totally shipped arc and amithystia.

Looking forward to book two in the series!

Suited for Teens and YA, Excellent Narration

In my opinion this book is best suited for Teens and Young Adults.
It's full of teen drama and teen romance.

I personally didn't enjoy it as much as I had hoped because of the above and because I couldn't relate to the Main Character and didn't find her very likable.
But I would feel bad giving this book a bad review because of that, because I should probably have know I wasn't the target audience (I'm 37), and because it isn't a bad book at all.

I do see my niece (who's 15) enjoy this, and probably relate to Amethysta.
It's full of Fantasy, Adventure and Romance.

The narration was excellent and suited the story perfectly.

I got this Audio Book for free (thanks!). I'm voluntarily leaving this review.
