Curse Breaker

Kingdom of Runes, Book 2

De: Audrey Grey

Narrado por: Vanessa Moyen

Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Holly Black, this enemies-to-lovers adventure romance should come with a book hangover warning.

All magic has a price.

Haven survived the Devourers, but she isn’t any closer to breaking the curse. Meanwhile, her forbidden magic rages brighter and more dangerous every day. To control her powers and stand a chance against the Shade Queen, Haven made a bargain with two enemy immortals. Now, her waking hours are spent fighting alongside the Sun Lord, but her dreams belong to the Shade Lord.

Only, the closer she ventures into the wicked Shadow Kingdom, the more her magic shows itself and the more she struggles with whom to trust. The golden but wounded Sun Lord or the darkly charismatic Shade Lord. Both are off-limits. And both have the ability to save her or destroy her.

With the Shade Queen closing in and Bell’s time nearly up, Haven will sacrifice everything to break the curse, but will it be enough to stop the mortal realm from falling into darkness forever?

Welcome to the Kingdom of Runes where immortals and humans clash, light and dark magic reign, and mythical creatures lurk in the shadows.

If you like fierce heroines, enemies-to-lovers romance, wild plot twists, and endearing characters that stay with you long after you reach the end, you need to discover the book fans are calling dark fantasy at its best. Just make sure to clear out some space on your calendar first!

So much better

If you had your doubts reading the first book, this one will change that. I liked the second book so much better than the first! The plot moved faster and the character development felt full circle. I highly recommend continuing this series if you’ve read the first.

I LOVE THIS AUDIOBOOK!!

This book had me on the edge of my seat- and frustrated I had to pause it off and on to “Adult”. All I wanted was time off from work and for my responsibilities to hold off for a day just to take it all in. Gotta love being an “Essential”! Even with being interrupted constantly I was easily able to follow the story line, and the narrator does such an amazing job of voicing the individual characters that I fell right back into where I left off. This series is definitely in my list of Top Favorites Ever- and I highly recommend it to anyone who who loves the genre of magic and destiny!

Book 2 in epic fantasy adventure series

Book 2 in the Kingdom of Runes series picks up right after the events of Oath Taker, with Haven on a dangerous mission to save her best friend and prince Bell. Boy does this girl know how to take a beating! Basically, this book was Haven moving from one dangerous, life threatening encounter to the next, with no guarantee for survival. There was heartbreak, betrayal, action, romance, confessions, hard choices, self sacrifice, and magic all tied up in one convenient book format- with a gorgeous cover as an added bonus. I loved the first book in the series but somehow the second was even better- even though I feel like my heart has been broken by the time I reached the end.

This is very much an adventure story, full of death and magic...but to me at least, this is also a complicated romance (as all the best stories are!) Haven has 2 love interests, one seen as good but is such a jerk usually, one who is all that is evil but is gentle and patient, basically mortal enemies but man do I love and root for them both. I have no idea how Haven is suppose to pick one when me, the reader, can't decide who I love more. On a side note, there were a few pretty steamy encounters along the way as well, just as a fun side note.

I need the next book asap so I can find out what will happen. The ending of this book was basically the start of a new, complicated mission with Haven smack dab in the middle of the mess- just where she keeps finding herself. This is the perfect read for anyone who likes fantasy worlds full of monsters and mayhem, the court intrigue of The Throne of Glass Series, and fans of strong characters who may not know what they want but will always do what is right.

Side note, the narrator did a fantastic job giving Haven (as well as the other characters) life. I loved listening to her read and interact with the story and I would gladly listen to her read the rest of the series as well as any other audiobook.

What a fantastic story!!!

Loved the book. So many things are happening with in the story. I was surprised by a few twists I didn’t see coming until they happened. The narration was great. I couldn’t put the story down. Can’t wait for book 3.

Another awesome book by Audrey Grey

I loved this book and can’t wait for book three. Haven is a great kick butt heroine that I can’t wait to see what happens next. I enjoyed the narrator, she did a great job!

Enjoyable and developed characters and storyline

Narration was true to the character emotion and story line creating a riveting book that could not be put down. enjoyed the building of friendship and love interests while tantalized by the main character mysterious background and power balance change agent.

so good!

This was better than the last, and the last one was pretty good! The narrator really does such a good job with these characters. There is angst, loss, laughter, and adventure in this story. I dont know where the story will go next but super happy it didnt end on a cliffhanger. I am looking forward to seeing how the world looks now without the curse.

And that slow burn with Archeron...couldnt believe the self control on that guy. Although, I am rooting for her to end up with the Shade Lord. Not sure if thats a popular opinion or not, but like the dark side I guess. And with the character who joined right at the end I hope it will bring them together again.

This series is EVERYTHING

I can’t say enough good things about this series, if you are on the fence about whether to continue on or not do it for your sake. I’ve read the books and the audio and I love them equally. The narrator does a great job of portraying the characters! Ugh the feels I cannot wait until the 3rd one.

So good

This is such an amazing series and the characters are done well and the narrator dose a great job

Break the curse... But at what cost?

Loved this audio version of the book. The narrator brought each character to life with unique voice and inflections so that you could easily tell which character the chapters perspective was coming from. This second book held more feels: happy and sad, heartwrenching loss and joyful reunion, bitter betrayal and crazy adventure. More heat as the attraction grew between Archeron and Haven. We learn more of their history and grow to love the characters as well. Lots of surprises at the end keep you wanting more!
