Magic, adventure, mystery, and romance combine in this epic debut in which a young princess must reclaim her dead mother’s throne, learn to be a ruler - and defeat the Red Queen, a powerful and malevolent sorceress determined to destroy her. On her 19th birthday, Princess Kelsea Raleigh Glynn, raised in exile, sets out on a perilous journey back to the castle of her birth to ascend her rightful throne. Plain and serious, a girl who loves books and learning, Kelsea bears little resemblance to her mother, the vain and frivolous Queen Elyssa.

That is, until she gets a job on a tiny trade ship with a nasty reputation for surprises. The Glorious Fool isn't misnamed; it likes to get into trouble, so much so that one year of security work under its captain is equal to five years everywhere else.

Good story, but...
The narrator’s voice and vocal inflections really grated on my nerves. But don’t let me dissuade anyone from giving it a listen, you’ll miss a good tale if you do.

Great story, mildly annoying narrator
Of the story:
A delightful cast of characters, and a teenager. Maeve and Coldhand are broken in different ways and we get to witness their 'rehumanization'. By the end of this book I was chomping at the bit to start the second book.
Of the narrator:
Reasonable voice acting, which is a plus. However, I found her habit of 'gasping' out the end of each sentence to be distracting.

I downloaded this book recently for a long road trip and found myself glad that I'd downloaded others as well. If you like endless infodumps, then this is the book for you. If you don't, look somewhere else.
