Cyrene Strohm is a Queen's Affiliate, a high-ranking official of the court of Byern, with power and privilege to spare. But she's also a keeper of dangerous secrets: like the fact that she holds the heart of the King, and that she possesses magic in a world where magic no longer exists. Determined to discover what this means and how to use her newfound abilities, Cyrene sets off for the distant land of Eleysia, an island nation where Affiliates are strictly forbidden from entering. But the journey is perilous, and the destination may mean utter ruin, as Cyrene comes to learn that everything she's been told her whole life - about her court, her homeland, and even herself - are bound in a beautiful lie.

Great story. A strong female character in an interesting world occasionally looses all her strength and common sense in an effort to keeep things moving along. I hate her loss of herself to move the plot from one stage to the next. Her inner dialogue during these portions are whiny and the narration, 😔, makes it sooo much worse. I do 💕 💕 this world. This had the potential to be an epic fantasy fiction. It is a decent one. There are just some lacking pieces to that puzzle. A main piece is the narration. It truly will make or break a story. I also didn’t like the lack of distinction between the male characters. When a story contains so many characters, a skilled narrator is required to allow the story to thrive.

Excellent portions

I would recommend this book to those who like YA and Fantasy. Cyrene is a young, beautiful, smart and full of life girl. In her innocents she wants nothing more than to serve her country as an Affiliate. Once she gets the position she finds out that many things she had been taught in the past are not as they appear to be. I enjoyed the journey is took to understand wants happening to her.

I must say that I am happy her character is strong and is able to do what is best for herself. I am happy she never truly became the Kings mistress. I look forward to book 3. I am on team Cyrene, I hope at the end of the day, she will find someone who is available, who can love and cherish her because she is more than worth it.

The narrator did a great job and it was easy for me to switch back and forth between reading and listening to this tale. I finished it in one day. I love the adventure and trials of the main characters. Looking forward to seeing what happens next!

love it!
