By: Karin Biggs

Length: 8 hrs and 14 mins

Publisher's summary

Amazon number one new release in Teen Young Adult Romantic Mysteries and Thrillers.

Sixteen-year-old princess Piper Parish is a disappointment to the citizens of Capalon, a STEM-structured kingdom where innovation is valued above all. Her older sister, the queen, views Piper's tears during their parents' funeral as a weakness, not to mention her strange affinity for singing.

When Piper receives an anonymous note stating her mother is still alive and living in the enemy kingdom of Mondaria, Piper chooses to risk death and flees Capalon to prove, once and for all, that she's not just the queen's defective little sister.

Posing as a Mondarian citizen named Paris Marigold, Piper bumps into a cute black-haired boy named Ari, who encourages her to audition for the King's 100, an esteemed performance court of singers, magicians, and drummers. Piper lands a spot as a singer and dives head-first into a world of glittering dresses, girl-code, sugar, blackmail, and physical contact - all while taking direction from an evil maestro.

Under Mondarian law, Piper will be killed if her identity is revealed. But living a life without the freedom to love might actually be the most dangerous risk of all. The King's 100 is perfect for listeners who would love a mash-up of the Selection series, Cinder, and Glee!

KINGS 100

A DIFFERENT STORY THAN WHAT YOU WOULD IMAGINE. GREAT NARRATION! AND FUN TO LISTEN TO!

Great story

I received this book from the author for an honest review.

I was not sure if I was going to like this in the beginning, but I am glad I gave it a chance. I love how the story evolves with the characters. I am looking forward to the rest of the story.

A wonderful listen

I’m normally not a fan of this genre but I had a recommendation that this book was something different. The story was very compelling and the characters were written so well that I couldn’t stop listening. I recommend this book to everyone, regardless of their age.

great read!

loved this book! I'd rexommend to anyone who needs a fun non-fiction read. narration/performance added so much to the story

I hope there is a sequel!

To start, I received a free copy of the audiobook in exchange for an honest review.

My review contains minor spoilers, you've been warned.

I loved this book. The narrator has a lovely voice and did an excellent performance. She kept a good pace and had distinct voices for the characters so it was easy to keep track of who was speaking.

The story is simple but unique. I honestly wanted the book to be longer (or even a duology) to get more world building because the author created a really interesting futuristic setting that has a lot of potential. The epilogue left it open ended for more books but I don't know if there will be more. I hope the will be!

The book has romance but really only kissing and reference to virginity so it's appropriate for a younger audience. The character does read romance novels that have smut but never goes into detail. There is also minimal use of swearing but it does happen like three or four times.

I definitely recommend this book for anyone who liked the lunar chronicles, the selection series, or the princess diaries. It's a quick read that is a lot of fun and I didn't want to put it down.

Also it has a happy ending, and I loved it. Very satisfying.

Kept me fully entrenched

An honest review in exchange for audiobook

Kept me fully entrenched from the beginning. Well written. The narrator did an excellent job.

Loved it

This was a good story. Piper Parish was a year old princess, Her parents died and her sister the Queen considered her grief a weakness. All her sister wanted was for Piper to accept her match. But after Piper receives a message stating that her mother is still alive and lives at the enemies palace in Mondaria. So Piper poses as Paris Marigold and goes to Mondaria in search of her mother. Her biggest hope is she will remain undiscovered because the punishment will mean death. Her journey to find answers is full of mystery & danger. Great story with awesome characters. Loved it

Lovely Audio and Romantic Story

I really loved the quality of this audiobook and the narrator's English accent was so nice to listen to. The story is fun, romantic, and such a lovely escape. It's a book for teens but also very enjoyable for adults.

Really enjoyed!

I must first say that I loved the narration. It was nice to listen to and fit the story very well. I enjoyed the book but must say that it got a little slow and I was a little bored in the middle. It got better again in the end and I enjoyed listening to the book. I can’t wait to see what will happen next!

Great book

I really liked The King’s 100. The characters were great, Piper goes into enemy territory to try to find her mother. I loved the characters in this story as well as the setting and storyline. I definitely want to continue the series to find out what happens next.
