Shadow & Flame

De: Mindee Arnett

Narrado por: Khristine Hvam

From acclaimed author Mindee Arnett comes the thrilling conclusion of the stunningly epic, action-packed fantasy adventure that’s been called “a page-turning blend of monsters, magic, and romance” by Susan Dennard, the New York Times best-selling author of Truthwitch.

They call her the Wilder Queen. It’s a title given to Kate Brighton for her role in the war between the wilder rebellion and the Rimish empire. It’s a title that was hard earned: Kate may have saved her people, but many were lost in the conflict, immortalized in the tattoos of fire that grace her arms.

And it’s a title that Kate never wanted. The rebellion may have made a home for themselves in a country that wants to cast them out, but the peace will never be safe while Edwin, the illegitimate king of Rime, sits upon its throne. And for that, the Wilder Queen must keep hers.

Now war is brewing once again. Kate and her allies receive word of a threat to their ambassador in the Rimish capital; meanwhile, across the channel in Seva, an army is being assembled to conquer Rime - and a prisoner slave named Clash may hold the key to ending the conflict once and for all.

As enemies close in on Kate and Clash from all sides, they must choose where their loyalties lie - with their people, with their loved ones, or with themselves.

The epic story that began with Onyx & Ivory comes to a stunning conclusion as acclaimed author Mindee Arnett throws listeners into a beautiful, terrifying world poised on a razor’s edge in its struggle for survival.

Wished it Was Longer

I enjoyed this Duology. It was quick paced and full of dynamic characters and world building. My only regret is that we didn’t get to spend enough time with the religion that was so important in the final moments. I would’ve felt more connected to Kate and the Paragon if I’d known more about the goddess. Overall, it was a sweet ending to a powerful Duology.

Loved it

Loved this story! It was easy to fall in love with the characters and cheer them on. I was even telling “off with his head” At one point in the battle.

Tuned out the last half

First book was much more enjoyable. Towards the last half kept tuning it out and having to replay it. Never liked the main heroine, she just wasn’t likable. Wanted a different ending, maybe they go their separate ways. Other characters were more interesting than the main two. But high points for world building and magic system. Would have liked to learn more about the gods. Seems this was 3 books and the author just got tired of writing it.

loved it

storyline was wonderful, the narration tended to drag a little but good sound. i will definitely recommend

To much info

Good read. Little to much info at the end of the story seemed a little rushed.

amazing

loved it! great performance to a great story! I wish book three would come out soon!

Thank god for magic

A lot of sexual tension and a good amount of war time action. Surprising

Middle was torture to get through

Overall it was a nice ending to the two books. The middle part of the book with the brainwashing, forced marriage, forced torture and killing was extremely hard to get through. I was going to stop listening all together but I’m glad the end wrapped everything up.

Worth the read!!!

This book is so full and wholesome. The slow burn romance is worth it all the way through. Loved it.

Emotional roller coaster.

Was please! Very good book. I truly enjoyed the story.
Looking forward to the next book!
