Kingdom of the Feared

De: Kerri Maniscalco

Narrado por: Marisa Calin

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Stalking Jack the Ripper series comes the steamy conclusion to Kingdom of the Wicked trilogy.

Two curses.
One prophecy.
A reckoning all have feared.

And a love more powerful than fate. All hail the king and queen of Hell.

Emilia is reeling from the shocking discovery that her twin sister, Vittoria, is alive. But before she faces the demons of her past, Emilia yearns to claim her king, the seductive Prince of Wrath, in the flesh. Emilia doesn’t simply desire his body, she wants his heart and soul—but that’s something the enigmatic demon can’t promise her.

When a high-ranking member of House Greed is assassinated, Emilia and Wrath are drawn to the rival demon court. Damning evidence points to Vittoria as the murderer and she’s quickly declared an enemy of the Seven Circles. Despite her betrayal, Emilia will do anything to solve this new mystery and find out who her sister really is.

Together Emilia and Wrath play a sin-fueled game of deception as they work to stop the unrest that’s brewing between witches, demons, shape-shifters and the most treacherous foes of all: the Feared.

Emilia was warned that when it came to the Wicked nothing was as it seemed. But, have the true villains been much closer all along? When the truth is finally revealed, it just might end up costing Emilia her heart.

Food, family, magic, and romance are threaded into this propulsive story, making it a thrilling, wondrous, and atmospheric tale."—Booklist

Praise for the #1 New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling series Stalking Jack the Ripper:

*"A marvelous yet somewhat gruesome mystery...an unexpected twist makes the ending worth the wait. A must-have." —School Library Journal, starred review

"Maniscalco has created a serious, sharp-minded, and forward-thinking protagonist in Audrey Rose, whose fearlessness will endear her to readers looking for an engaging historical thriller. Abundant red herrings and a dash of romance round out this gruesome but engrossing story."
—Publisher's Weekly

"Audrey Rose Wadsworth prefers breeches to ball gowns, autopsies to afternoon tea, and scalpels to knitting needles. Though her father, Lord Edmund, has forbidden it, Audrey covertly studies forensic medicine...while "the Ripper" remains two steps ahead, lurking where Audrey least expects....Maniscalco's portrayal of scientific invention in a newly industrial era will serve as a fine first foray into Victorian classics."
—Booklist

"Kerri Maniscalco once again combines adventure, romance, murder and Victorian manners into an intoxicating cocktail that brings the story of this tenacious young forensic scientist to a satisfying conclusion."—Knoxville News Sentinel

"Audrey is a young woman eager to use her brains and willing to flaunt society's rules....This mystery pays homage to classics like Doyle's Sherlock Holmes and Mary Shelley's Frankenstein [and] will satisfy those readers looking for historical mystery, a witty heroine, and a little romance."
—School Library Connection

"There are plenty of suspects and red herrings as well as tense escalations....A scenic, twisty mystery." —Kirkus Reviews

"Audrey Rose is a witty, resourceful feminist who refuses to bow to Victorian-era gender norms. This dark, gothic landscape is peopled with nuanced, diverse characters who keep readers enthralled. A gripping mystery with a compelling heroine and just the right touch of romance." —Kirkus Reviews

Completely immersive!

What an amazing finish to a trilogy! The sound production including voice effects and music was very artfully done and added an extra layer to the storyline. I was completely immersed at all times. I'm really hoping the author does some offshoot books with the other characters included in the series!

Great book

Great book and loved the narrating. I would definitely recommend this trilogy to any fantasy reader.

Great story made even better by an amazing narrator!

Such a good story. I listened to the entire series in 3 days. And it had some of my favorite tropes. Enemies to lovers. Forced close proximity. The chosen one. The dark lord. Secret heir. And Wrath is just so dark and sweet to the MC.

SOO FRICKEN GOOD

sooo good!! The ending left me whole and so happy! and also left the author open to write more books if she wanted! I was excited about this series, then saddened and only the audiobooks kept me going thru book one. but I pushed on and am so happy. I love the twins and Wrath and all of the princes of Sin. ❤️

Perfection

Loved it one of the best series have read in awhile. Definitely on my recommended list.
