King of Immortal Tithe

Darkmourn Universe, Book 2

By: Ben Alderson

Narrated by: Shaun Grindell

From the bestselling author Ben Alderson comes a fantastical and spicy reimagining of the Hades and Persephone tale. King of Immortal Tithe is a standalone in the Darkmourn Universe.

Human. Arlo Grey will do anything to fend off the sickness that longs to destroy him. To uphold the promise he made to his parents, ensuring the protection of his sister from the world and its dangers. Especially if the dangers come in the form of elves from a realm beyond that of the human world.

Elf. Faenir Evelina is scorned for the murder of his family. Forced by the bitter Queen to partake in the Choosing, he discovers a single person who can resist the deadly grace of his touch.

It has been many years since the vampiric disease spread wildly across Darkmourn, making humans a rarity. And protection from the undead comes at a cost, one that Arlo is forced to pay when he is stolen by the Prince of Death.

Arlo finds himself tangled in a web of secrecy, family politics, and unbridled magic when he comes face to face with the impending doom . . . his truth.

Contains mature themes.

captivating

such a great book, had me hooked the entire time. I love this series and can't wait to see what books he releases next

Lots of Improvement

I was pleasantly surprised at how much Ben Alderson's writing had improved throughout this book, lots more detail and better relationships. The voice acting was also 10 times better, thank goodness. Enjoy another read, A.

A fan fiction for a world still in the authors head.

This is a standalone novel in the series. The voice acting is really interesting and distinct for each character.

My real issue is with the plot and the in the rules of the fantasy. Something’s were done to just rush the characters to bed. Honestly alto went from hating his kidnapper to bedding him real quick. The politics of the world were interesting, but not well thought out.

Honestly, I rolled my eyes in the final act when the big bad reveal themselves but I don’t want to give spoilers.

Like I said, this book would be a great fanfiction for a more developed series.

Love it

Romantic. Hot. Everything so good, Ben honey keep the good work. I need to read this again

Wow

Wow wow wow so first of all I found this book on TikTok and I was really skeptical at first because I have never read anything like this. I have never been a fantasy girly or anything like that. I have always been into the really dark romance or football/Hockey romance so I’ve never read any type of fantasy before and honestly this book was such a great beginning. It has lots of story building and history to it, and the romance was beautiful slow but beautiful.
