The Wraith King

The Rise of Northgall, Book 1

De: Juliette Cross

Narrado por: Troy Duran, Meg Sylvan

A brutal, bloody war against the ruthless Wraith King has cost the light fae more than innocent lives.

Una Hartstone, Princess of Issos, learns the price the Wraith King demands to end the war once and for all—Her. In exchange for the safety of her people, she agrees to give her life—and her body—to her greatest enemy.

Gollaya Verbane is determined to fulfill his destiny and his god's prophecy. When his seer points to the Princess of Issos as the key to the rise of the dark fae, he demands her submission. But when she finally yields, he realizes Una is much more to him than a priceless weapon.

A mystery that has haunted Una for years awakens when she is abducted and dragged back to Näkt Mir. The palace hides many dark secrets… and at least one traitor. A traitor determined to take King Goll's throne—and all he possesses. What he doesn't know is that Una's magick is more powerful than he can imagine and that Goll will burn the whole world to save her.

Enjoyable

I liked the synopsis of the book. The characters and storyline are just okay though. I love the Juliette Cross’s paranormal fantasy series and typically gobble up high fantasy books. This one didn’t grab me though. I had to switch to another book part of the way through and come back to this one. It was just long and a bit redundant in places.

such a good story!

Over all loved it. Great world building. character development,supporting characters and very spicy!!! the voice actors were so good and brought the characters to life.

Good Story line

This was a good read with excellent narrators and a good balance of story line to spice, that keeps your attention.

Great! New recent favorite

I am impressed. I feel like it's been a long time since I really been taken with a story and I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The fantasy and world building was very good. The characters and audio was done very well. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in fantasy romance. I will definitely be continuing with the series

Gripping from the beginning

I was really impressed with this story and loved the voice actors!! the story itself is gripping from the prologue and I couldn't put this story down. loved it!!!!

my only complaint would be that there's a slightly different pacing with the two voice actors, something that doesn't really matter unless you speed up for the FMC and don't want to speed up the MMC, but I barely needed to adjust the settings
