Of Mist and Shadow

The Mist King, Book 1

By: Jenna Wolfhart

Narrated by: Billie Fulford-Brown, Tim Campbell

When the vicious fae king catches Tessa stealing his powerful gemstones, he demands a cruel punishment.

She must leave her family and friends behind and become his future human bride. Tessa has never stepped foot inside the glittering fae city until now—and no mortal is allowed. There, things are far more monstrous than she ever dreamed. King Oberon humiliates her, terrorizes her, and threatens those she loves.

But when she escapes, someone far worse finds her. The lethal Mist King, the enemy fae who trapped her people beneath the reign of King Oberon in the first place. The one who destroyed human cities and watched them burn.

He takes her captive and then offers her a deal: become the first mortal to kill a fae king, and he will free her people. But the mists beyond the kingdom walls are dangerous, ruthless, and mesmerizing…and so is he.

As Tessa fights her growing desire, she must make a choice; her dagger can kill only one fae...which king will it be?

Of Mist and Shadow is the first book in The Mist King series, a captivating and sizzling enemies-to-lovers fantasy romance.

A good start.

I really like the world, the premise and the characters. There were a few places where I didn't feel like the leaps of logic were fleshed out quite well enough but that is forgivable in a first of a series.

I do want to see what happens next and will be watching 👀

The narration is quite good from both.

Loved!

Another great enemies to lovers story! I immediately jumped on the 2nd book in the series....but now I'm bummed to see that the audio hasn't been completed yet for the 3rd. Looking forward to the continuing story.

Main Character is a Mess

The story was ok overall and the performance very good but the main character is indecisive, whiny. One minute she’s trying to be tough, the next she leaping to conclusions based on little to no evidence. Very frustrating as a reader.

Good

This book started out a little slow, but it picked up quickly. I liked Tessa, but she seemed a little naïve. Tessa manages to flee from one fae king into the clutches of another fae king. She has been lied to so much I can understand why she is having problems trusting anyone. I will definitely be reading the next book in this series.

great book

this book is so good I will definitely be listing to the rest of the series I loved it. definitely will recommend
