The Kingdom Within

De: Samantha Gillespie

Narrado por: Lauren B. Leigh

Princess Meredith’s 18th birthday is fast approaching, but unlike other girls, she is not looking forward to it. Upon her coming of age, she is to marry the prince of Alder, the most powerful kingdom in the world. Though the idea of marriage to a complete stranger is appalling, she knows she has no choice. Without the marriage contract, Stonefall’s alliance with Alder will be lost, and her people will be safe no longer; Theros, King of Talos, has set his eyes of conquest on Stonefall and he wants Meredith dead.

Connor, an elite soldier entrusted with Meredith’s safety, arrives at the palace just as things begin to take a turn for the worst. Together, they will embark on a journey of survival, in which Meredith will find that the only thing she never prepared for was falling in love.

Great Narrator, Interesting Story

Lauren B. Leigh is great at telling this interesting story. She performs both the male and female voices incredibly well. This story is compelling and I hope there will be more in the series.

Excellent

I throughly enjoyed this story it was nice to listen to on a whim. The narrator was great as well. I really loved the princess's character👸

cant wait for part 2!!!

Captivating Story

I was excited to listen to this new YA/teen series. The story was interesting and kept my attention from beginning to conclusion. The author did an excellent job creating unique characters that kept me captivated and wondering what would happen next.

Narration was well done and brought the story to life.

I enjoyed the twists and turns but the conclusion left me wanting much more. I can barely wait for the next book to see how things will turn out. Please hurry! :)

Spellbinding

An amazing performance, coupled with a fantastic story. Beautifully woven tale that has left me at the edge of my seat, faithfully and anxiously waiting for book 2. That ending!!!

A Familiar Story Told Well

Let me say first that fantasy is not my genre of choice. Tales centered around royalty specifically.

However- I greatly enjoyed “The Kingdom Within”. Although it treads familiar territory, the story Ms. Gillespie tells is exciting, emotional, and easy-to-follow, with strong characterization and dialogue throughout. I was along for the ride the entire time, swooning over Connor and rooting for the growth of Princess Meredith all the same.

What really made this such a fantastic listen was the performance by Lauren B. Leigh. A soothing voice during narration, she manages to inhabit every character with great spirit, really keeping the listen hooked on every word.

I can’t wait to hear the next chapter in this series.
