The Knight and the Moth

De: Rachel Gillig

Narrado por: Samantha Hydeson

INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!

From New York Times bestselling author Rachel Gillig comes a sensational romantasy, a gothic, mist-cloaked tale of a young prophetess forced on an impossible quest with the one knight whose future is beyond her sight.

"Prepare to meet your next obsession." — Rebecca Ross, author of Divine Rivals

Sybil Delling has spent nine years dreaming of having no dreams at all. Like the other foundling girls who traded a decade of service for a home in the great cathedral, Sybil is a Diviner. In her dreams she receives visions from six unearthly figures known as Omens. From them, she can predict terrible things before they occur, and lords and common folk alike travel across the kingdom of Traum’s windswept moors to learn their futures by her dreams.

Just as she and her sister Diviners near the end of their service, a mysterious knight arrives at the cathedral. Rude, heretical, and devilishly handsome, the knight Rodrick has no respect for Sybil's visions. But when Sybil's fellow Diviners begin to vanish one by one, she has no choice but to seek his help in finding them. For the world outside the cathedral’s cloister is wrought with peril. Only the gods have the answers she is seeking, and as much as she'd rather avoid Rodrick's dark eyes and sharp tongue, only a heretic can defeat a god.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"I’m obsessed with Rachel Gillig. The Knight and the Moth is achingly romantic, richly imagined, and told with a gossamer delicacy that keeps the pages flying."—Hannah Whitten, author of The Foxglove King

"With the headiness of dreams and the darkness of haunted abbeys, The Knight and the Moth is a dazzlingly transportive tale of love, salvation, and freedom that cements Gillig as one of the finest fantasy writers of our age. You will never want to surface from these enchanting, depthless waters."—Ava Reid, #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Study in Drowning

“A gothic, romantic fairytale that feels like falling into a dark, strange dream — one you won’t want to wake from. With twisty parables, monstrous divinities, a slow-burn romance and magic with a deadly cost, the story of The Knight and the Moth unfolds like peeling back a gossamer shroud. Gillig has done it again — I’m obsessed.”—Amélie Wen Zhao, New York Times bestselling author of Song of Silver, Flame Like Night

“The queen of Gothic romantasy returns! The Knight and the Moth is as dangerous as it is whimsical, and entirely unputdownable.”—Allison Saft, author of A Dark and Drowning Tide

"The Knight and the Moth delivers pure joy--gargoyles! gods! girls in armor!--alongside a serious examination of faith, fealty, and the powers they serve. It's a fairy tale with bruised knuckles, perfectly balanced between the mythic and the desperately human. Simply stunning."—Alix E. Harrow, author of The Ten Thousand Doors of January

"Dreamy prose, characters so vibrant they breathe on the page, a romance that smolders, and a spellbinding world to get lost in…The Knight and the Moth is one of the best books I’ve read this year. Prepare to meet your next obsession."—Rebecca Ross, author of Divine Rivals

"The Knight and the Moth is a lavender-drenched dream. Transportive and pacy, Gillig delivers sparkling romantic tension, eerie atmosphere, and the most unique, endearing characters I’ve read in a long while. The signs are clear—readers won’t be able to put down this adventurous, dark gem of a book."

—Kalie Cassidy, author of In the Veins of the Drowning

Brimming with beguiling prose, and a dangerous magical world, The Knight and the Moth sparkles with wit and a slow burn romance that left me breathless and impatient for the next installment. Rachel Gillig wrote a gorgeous tale I won’t ever shut up about. —Isabel Ibanez, #1 New York Times bestselling author

Fantastic Storyline and Really Lovable Main Character.

I REALLY wish I would have realized this series wasn't complete before starting this book. it had me by the throat since chapter one. athe character buikding, amazing. The voice acting, 10/10. The action, top notch. The romance, slow, beautiful build. The freaking twist at the end?! Heartwrenching. the only thing I'm upset about with this book is that there isn't already another one out. I also wish there was a bit more spice during the romance scenes, but the build up to it was so teasing. All in all a FANTASTIC read and I highly recommend it.

Original imaginative moving - a rare find

The biggest wow of this story was how authentic the personalities were. Romantic storyline made sense and was both fun and touching and … sigh.
Magical world surprised me with originality. The whole story surprised me, to be honest.
Can’t say I foresaw the ending which left me upset but also glad when I saw there’s a second book to follow.
Some truly beautiful scenes. Some parts were basic or ordinary but just loved the friendships and conversations.
Some almost painfully true insights about life sprinkled in too.
I didn’t care for author’s previous series. But this one was plain wow.
I’m thrilled with narrator when I don’t even think about the narration.
So wish I could find more books like this, of any of genres I enjoy.

A masterpiece

This feels like a new classic. To be discussed and enjoyed over and over again. The narration is incredible and I was truly sad when it was over.

Great Character-and World-building

So glad it is a series. I fell into the characters quickly, and the mystery had me hooked.

gorgeous writing

this was a perfect story, it had everything i wanted to find in a fantasy! gorgeously written, sumptuous world building, a work of art! I can't wait for book two 🩷
