A Shadow in the Ember

Flesh and Fire, Book 1

De: Jennifer L. Armentrout

Narrado por: Stina Nielsen

#1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout returns with book one of the compelling Flesh and Fire series - set in the beloved Blood and Ash world.

Born shrouded in the veil of the Primals, a Maiden as the Fates promised, Seraphena Mierel’s future has never been hers. Chosen before birth to uphold the desperate deal her ancestor struck to save his people, Sera must leave behind her life and offer herself to the Primal of Death as his Consort.

However, Sera’s real destiny is the most closely guarded secret in all of Lasania - she’s not the well protected Maiden but an assassin with one mission - one target. Make the Primal of Death fall in love, become his weakness, and then...end him. If she fails, she dooms her kingdom to a slow demise at the hands of the Rot.

Sera has always known what she is. Chosen. Consort. Assassin. Weapon. A specter never fully formed yet drenched in blood. A monster. Until him. Until the Primal of Death’s unexpected words and deeds chase away the darkness gathering inside her. And his seductive touch ignites a passion she’s never allowed herself to feel and cannot feel for him. But Sera has never had a choice. Either way, her life is forfeit - it always has been, as she has been forever touched by Life and Death.

JL Armentrout does it AGAIN!!

I am completely BLOWN AWAY!! And I am devastated that I’ll have to wait who knows how long for the 2nd book!! I LOVED this and how it all ties into Poppy and Casteel’s story!! Sera & Nyktos’ story is everything I never knew I needed!!

A voice like honey

Stina Nielsen’s voice has got to be one of the best I’ve listened to and I would glad listen to any book she reads.

narrator ruins it

omg this narrator. Who let this woman do this? I would think someone who speaks in vocal fry 75% of the time would be excluded from doing audiobook narration. I am 4 chapters in and honestly may need to abandon this audiobook series solely due to the choice of narrator, which is a disappointment because this series came highly recommended to me as an ACOTAR fan. Guess I'll need to get a physical copy!

Great Book/ worth the long windedness👍

Another great book. Although the author can be long winded at or most of the time and I have to listen to it at a faster speed. It is a great read. I cannot wait till the next and wonder if it will tie into the “Blood and Ash” series ? Stina is a great narrator too.

Love.

JLA never fails to amaze! I can not wait for the second book. (I hope there will be one) Absolutely love Sera and Ash (Nyktos) And want to see their love bloom and blossom. Want to see her kick some more serious a$$.
