Daindreth's Assassin

De: Elisabeth Wheatley

Narrado por: Elisabeth Wheatley

An assassin falls for the archduke she was sent to kill, but killing him might be the only way to save his soul.

Magic has two immutable rules - every spell requires a sacrifice, and every curse can be broken.

Amira Brindonu is a sorceress turned assassin, bound in a curse that forces her to obey her father, even to the point of high treason. When he orders her to kill the future emperor, she fails, but discovers a secret that could bring the whole of the empire to its knees.

The archduke is stricken by a curse that could sentence him and his people to damnation, but Amira could be the only key to breaking it. In a desperate last-ditch effort, the archduke takes Amira prisoner and makes a pact to protect her from her curse if she will help free him of his own.

As time begins to run out, Amira soon learns that there are enemies that blades can’t touch, and there are fates worse than death. Caught in a web of sorcery, intrigue, and her growing feelings for the archduke, the assassin must decide just how much she is willing to give to save the only man she’s ever loved.

Every curse can be broken, but can two cursed people save each other?

Beauty and the Beast meets The Witcher in this fantasy romance that is sure to delight fans of Sarah J. Maas, Kristin Cashore, and Leigh Bardugo.

Fantastic book, amazing storytelling

Great characters and exciting story. Loved it! If you like the Witcher series you’ll love this book!

Tough Love

This is an intriguing fast pasted love drama. Where their demons don't play so well together. That's just the start.

Simple but nice and refreshing

I stumbled upon Elisabeth Wheatley's funny videos and it made me buy the book. I was not disappointed at all :) It is a bit simple story, borderline YA, but I enjoyed it very much and I will definitely buy the next books in the series. I like the characters, the story is interesting enough and maybe some surprises are waiting in the next books :)

Great book and great reading!

I loved this book. I'm looking forward to starting the next one in the series! I love the detail put into the voicing of the different characters and the consistency of the production quality the whole way throughout.

Compelling

I thought I couldn't become immersed in a story anymore, but this book proved me entirely wrong. Amira and Daindreth had me completely obsessed from start to finish. Already starting the second book, with the 3rd in my queue.

Amazing

Incredible story with action, love, magic, heartfelt romance and well I just can’t find any more words it’s just incredible

Gripping story.

I loved the story, I did feel like some of the characters acted "slow" to understanding concepts that we figured out right away or repeating things they discovered as if rediscovering it for the first time. But overall it was a gripping story that I couldn't stop listening to. I can't wait to "consume" the next!

Good read!

I finished this book in just a few long sittings, it kept me engaged right up until the end.

Well Written

I'm not normally a romance reader, I enjoy westerns, but this book changed my mind. I'll definitely be reading the rest of the series, and I might branch out if there are more like this.

Good story, terrible narration

The story was good. A little predictable but enjoyable. I couldn’t stand the narration. Clearly the author couldn’t afford to hire a narrator since she narrated it herself. She had zero emotion when reading. One would think narrating your own book you’d have a better grasp on the emotions your characters are expressing, but one would be wrong.
