Terragnata and the Heir of the Earth

Terragnata, Book 1

De: C. D. MacKenzie

Narrado por: Annie Worthington

Her true power lies dormant inside her, only to be discovered when everything she knows is lost.

Terra stands on the brink of an unremarkable and unwanted life. That is until a shockingly beautiful stranger with dark intentions turns the village's match-making ceremony into a night of bloodshed, leaving her family dead and revealing a power within Terra she cannot comprehend—or wield.

When an unlikely band of not-so-human rebels reveals her true nature and the keys to her forgotten past, Terra is thrust into a magical world beyond her wildest imagination.

The Fae befriend her.

The Witch teaches her.

The Dragon Shifter sets her aflame.

Embarking on a journey of vengeance, burning romance, and inevitable betrayal, Terra ultimately uncovers a web of lies that binds her to a fate far greater than the revenge she seeks.

Terragnata and the Heir of the Earth tells a tale of female self-discovery and self-actualization, wrapped in a layer of lust and intrigue to cure even the worst ACOTAR hangover. Positioned as the first in a four-book series, this new adult romantasy beckons listeners into a narrative where the enchantment of Spinning Silver, the mystery of The Serpent and The Wings of Night, and the courage of Fourth Wing collide.

It was def not what I expected!

One of the best audibles I have heard so far! I do wish they would leave the male actors for the male voices and female actresses to the felame characters but other than that, it was amazing! Finished it too quick

No notes - 5/5

Went in blind and with no expectations and holy cats did this book blow me away. Great plot, solid mix of characters, interesting world building politics - never quite knowing who is friend or enemy. Can’t wait to continue on in the series!

Standing ovation for the audio narrator 👏👏👏 one of the best I’ve listened to so far!

Intriguing premise, but leaves you wanting more

Just wrapped up this book and honestly, I’m a bit torn. The story had some cool ideas and moments that definitely caught my attention, but it also felt like a lot was happening all at once. I kept waiting for things to click or get explained, but I was mostly left with more questions than answers.

That said, I didn’t hate it — there’s definitely something there, and I’m kinda curious where it might go next. If there’s a second book, I might give it a shot… but I’m not totally sold yet.

Meh

The execution of the story really bothered me. Spoiler alert: every relationship happened too quickly. There was no build towards anything, and a lot of gratuitous spice like weird sex dreams and masturbation. The FMC wanders around falling in love, randomly having sex, and feeling deep feelings and attachments towards characters she only knew for a few days or weeks. And the guy who murdered her family and SA her sort of comes back into the story and becomes her ally. ( Which was so unbelievable and really bothered me.) And then there are random gruesome scenes of sexual violence at the end of a novel that really read like YA genre. It was all over the place. The author needs some strong mentorship and a much better editor.
