The Wings That Bind

Bloodwing Academy, Book 3

By: Briar Boleyn

Narrated by: Hannah Hedley, Justin Hill, Persephone Lee, Olivia Wright

The night's chaos left us breathless. Now the real nightmare begins.

A second dragon has awoken—her heart tainted and her power commandeered by two ruthless highbloods whose cruelty knows no bounds.

My dearest friend teetered on the brink of death. A dragon saved her, but now she's tied to him in a way I can scarcely understand. What will this new bond do to the woman I've come to love as a sister?

And then there's Blake. Once my relentless tormentor—he betrayed me again, nearly condemning Nyxaris to a cursed, stone-cold fate. Now, something has shifted in him. His gray eyes hide a secret he's desperate to keep.

I saved Blake's life, despite everything. Yet now my every heartbeat questions where we go from here.

With Bloodwing Academy in turmoil and a new headmaster no one saw coming, only one thing is certain: This is going to be one hell of a year.

At Bloodwing Academy, power comes with blood, and betrayal is as common as ambition. This dark fantasy series tackles mature themes. Listeners are advised to consult the trigger warnings before embarking on this intense, morally gray/black journey through the realm of Sangratha!

Reagan and Kag had me like Medra and Blake

I love when a fantasy romance has danger, chaos, and a slow-burn connection, and this one definitely delivers. The characters go through so much, and watching their relationship grow while everything around them is falling apart had me completely invested.

There were moments that had me stressed, moments that had me swooning, and of course moments where I needed to know what happens next immediately.

If you love fantasy romance with magic, tension, and a relationship that keeps building through the chaos, this one is definitely worth the listen

And clearly… I’m always a sucker for a love story in the middle of chaos. I know I have issues

Cliffhanger

The story follows other characters. If you like a good cliffhanger, then you will enjoy the end.

It’s not over.

I thought this was the final book but I was wrong. Yes this story was really good. The narrators were excellent. The political vibe, hate vibe, and the love vibe are strong. The last battle in this book felt final and it could have been a great conclusion but no. I do like this series and would recommend, but I won’t be reading further.

An unexpected surprise!

A new story unfolded within the continuation of the series. Bringing more depth and excitement.

Amazing Series

The third book didn't disappoint. Can't wait for the next one. The only criticism I have is of the weird dragon/human romance and sexual tension. I could have gone my whole life without that.
