The Lost Emerald of Briarwood

Shadow Sovereign, Book 1

By: Vona Stewart

Narrated by: VonDexter Montegut II

Fourteen-year-old Hayden doesn't believe in magic. He's never been attacked by dragons, taken a ride on a taxi service staffed by man-eating pegasi, or battled a swarm of killer tarantula fairies. And he's certainly never owned a pair of ensorcelled underpants designed to make the wearer invisible - that would be ridiculous.

All Hayden knows is a wretched life in the overcrowded Arizona foster care system, where miles of red tape often keep him separated from his 12-year-old sister Sera, the only family he has left.

But that's about to change.

When Sera is snatched by a bunch of sharp-toothed goblins, Hayden follows the kidnappers through a portal and into the magical world of Wayfair.

In a place where carnivorous mushrooms lurk in dark forests and people in velvet waistcoats ride spider automatons, Hayden must solve the mystery behind Wayfair’s President and his secret source of power, or his sister may be lost forever.

The Lost Emerald of Briarwood is the first book in Vona Stewart’s Shadow Sovereign series. If you like Harry Potter, Fablehaven, and Percy Jackson, you’ll love this imaginative and exciting magic portal fantasy.

Incredible narration to an already great book!

I can't stop talking about this audiobook! I bought the book right after it came out and loved it. Every few weeks, the characters will cross my mind again. I have 200 audible titles and have probably listened to 300+ audiobooks. This is legitimately one of my top two favorite performance/story combinations. The passion and emotion, the range of the different voices. It is all mind blowing. This is a fabulous book. The story is top quality. I was already a fan. Now I want everyone I know to listen to the audiobook. It turns the story up to 11!
