Acerca de esta escucha
The perfect pause-resisting romance debut for fans of Game of Thrones.
Catalia "Cat" Fisa is a powerful clairvoyant known as the Kingmaker. This smart-mouthed soothsayer has no interest in her powers and would much rather fly under the radar, far from the clutches of her homicidal mother. But when an ambitious warlord captures her, she may not have a choice.
Griffin is intent on bringing peace to his newly conquered realm in the magic-deprived south. When he discovers Cat is the Kingmaker, he abducts her. But Cat will do everything in her power to avoid her dangerous destiny, and she battles her captor at every turn.
Although up for the fight, Griffin would prefer for Cat to help his people willingly, and he's ready to do whatever it takes to coax her - even if that means falling in love with her.

Historia
Mercenary Casia Greythorne cares about two things: completing whatever her latest job is and earning enough coin to buy the expensive medicine that's keeping her mentor alive. So when the king himself offers her a job, she can't resist the massive reward he offers - even if it means working with Captain Elander, the arrogant, mysterious right-hand to that king. Her partner may be infuriating, but at least their mission seems simple and quick enough: investigate the origins of the strange plague that's been ravaging their empire, help find a cure, and then call it a day.

Historia
Magic has been outlawed for almost a century, and anyone caught wielding it or bearing its mark is executed. Which is why I know every day could be my last. I'm marked for death. My skin bears the branding of the moon. I just thank the stars that it's not somewhere visible. For one night, I willingly put myself in danger, picking a stranger to lose myself in before I begin my life of servitude to the crown as a member of the King's Guard. But the man I thought was a stranger turns out to be the Blade of the King, Thorn, my new boss.

Historia
When twenty-four-year old Hanna Heikkinen's estranged father dies, she reluctantly makes the trip to Northern Finland for his funeral. Being in the enchanting land of ice and snow feels miles away from Hanna's busy life back in Los Angeles, especially under the complicated circumstances. But when Hanna discovers that her father's body is missing, that's when things really get weird. A mysterious man, Rasmus, tells Hanna the truth: her father was a powerful shaman who went into Tuonela, the Realm of the Dead, in order to barter for more life.

Any additional comments?
NUMBER OF HEARTS: 4 1/2Wonderful!! This was an excellent start to Ms. Bouchet’s Kingmaker Trilogy. I am already excited for the next two books in this series. A Promise of Fire kept my attention from page one. I just loved Cat. She is a mystery that slowly unravels as the story goes on. But with each mystery solved another one takes it place. Griffin is the perfect match for the very feisty Cat. Griffin is a bit of a jerk in the beginning but like Cat he is full of surprises.
I also love a book where you not only fall in love with the main characters but the secondary characters too. I can’t wait to see what happens with Cat, Griffin and the whole Beta Team!!!
I also had the pleasure of listening to A Promise of Fire on audio. I love finding new narrators to listen too. Mia Barron does a pretty good job narrating this book. If there was one item I can say that took me a bit to get use to was Griffin’s voice. It was not what I originally had thought that Beta Sinta would sound like. But after a few chapters I got use to Ms. Barron’s interpretation of his voice. I will be picking up the second book on audio also (as long as they don’t change narrators. It is the quickest way to look me as a listener)
Disclaimer:
I received a complimentary copy of this book from Netgalley & SOURCEBOOKS Casablanca in exchange for an honest review. This review is my own opinion and not a paid review.
Great start to a new series

I will always enjoy the print version of a book moreWho was your favorite character and why?
I enjoyed Cat's reading. She sounded very confident and sassy yet personableWhat three words best describe Mia Barron’s voice?
Smooth, dynamic, versatileWas there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Chapter 11 was particularly memorable. I just really enjoyed seeing everyone working together and protecting Cat despite knowing next to nothing about her.Good story, sassy reading, overall enjoyable

Re-Read/Listen: 01/22/2018 - Still 5 stars. I decided to read book 1 and 2 again to remind myself all that happened before reading book 3 that was recently released.
Original review: 12/23/2016
This book was so entertaining. I thoroughly enjoyed this story and the journey it took me on. This was my first book by this author and it certainly will not be my last. The author is a wonderful story teller. I could picture it all coming alive in my head. The world, the characters, and the interactions were all so vividly written. There was also a good dose of humor. I laughed out loud at a few parts and completely cracked up at one. I love the main characters and the supporting characters as well. Cat's personality and character development made me angry at times but only because I wanted her to lay all her cards on the table about who she is and be like no, screw you mom, but I totally get why she didn't. Griffin is awesome and has all the right character traits to make him swoon worthy. I'm looking forward to continuing this series to see what happens next.
As far as the narration goes, the narrator was easy to listen to and understand but wasn't that great with using different voices for different characters. I still enjoyed this as an audiobook.
What a journey!
