The King

A Novel of the Black Dagger Brotherhood

De: J. R. Ward

Narrado por: Jim Frangione

J.R. Ward's number-one New York Times best-selling Black Dagger Brotherhood continues as a royal bloodline is compromised by a grave threat to the throne.

Long live the king.…

After turning his back on the throne for centuries, Wrath, son of Wrath, finally assumed his father's mantle - with the help of his beloved mate. But the crown sets heavily on his head. As the war with the Lessening Society rages on, and the threat from the Band of Bastards truly hits home, he is forced to make choices that put everything - and everyone - at risk.

Beth Randall thought she knew what she was getting into when she mated the last pure blooded vampire on the planet: An easy ride was not it. But when she decides she wants a child, she's unprepared for Wrath's response - or the distance it creates between them.

The question is, will true love win out... or tortured legacy take over?

I was originally a little confused as to why Wrath gets another book when there are many new characters but when I listened to it, I completely understood. I loved this book and even more, I love when the laws are changed in the BDB world. I find myself cheering on Wrath & Saxton. This book had a little of everything except the war with the lessers and anything really about the brotherhood. I loved the back story for Wrath's parents, it helps explain a lot about who Wrath is. We also got a little from each of the characters from the next few books. This series is has always been a favorite of mine because of JR Wards writing style, each book is written with so many POV & story lines so that it's more about the entire BDB world not just the characters from each book. I don't know how many times I've read & listened to this series (usually I do a complete re-listen every couple years before the new book releases.

Jim Frangione IS the brotherhood to me!!!

It is The King after all....

Meh. I expected more considering we are re-visiting these two characters. I found the side stories (soon to be their own novels I think) more interesting. Kind of a let down, and I love this series. It just didn't have any powerful anything about Wrath. I didn't get any big revelation or any "ah ha" moments. Hoping the next book, should there be one, even if it is considered a spin off series, is more than this.

Mmmm

I turned my husband to this series. He read ahead of me and begged me to read this. I love J.R. Ward!

Another great chapter to my favorite book series

Spoiler for some, look away if you haven't read it yet.....
