The Road of Bones

The Ashen Series, Book 1

De: Demi Winters

Narrado por: Islay Jacobs

A woman on the run. A crew of Viking mercenaries. A forbidden romance. And the secret that threatens them all.

Silla Nordvig is running for her life.

The Queen of Íseldur has sent warriors to bring Silla to Sunnavík, where death awaits her. When her father is killed, his last words set Silla on a perilous quest: travel the treacherous Road of Bones—a thousand-mile stretch haunted by warbands, creatures of darkness, and a mysterious murderer—and go to Kopa, where a shield house awaits her.

After barely surviving the first stretch of road, a desperate Silla sneaks into a supply wagon belonging to the notorious Bloodaxe Crew. To make it to Kopa, she must win over Axe Eyes, the brooding leader of the Crew, while avoiding the Wolf, his distractingly handsome right-hand man. But the queen's ruthless assassin has other plans and hunts Silla obsessively.

Will Silla make it safely to Kopa? Or will she fall prey to the perils of the Road of Bones?

Featuring an immersive world blending fairy tales with Vikings, The Road of Bones leads you on an adrenaline-fueled chase with fun banter and a slow-building enemies-to-lovers romance. It is book one in the Ashen Series.

I really loved this!!

I’m a sucker for any good romantasy adventure, especially with a Viking twist. But this story blew my expectations out of the water! Beautifully written with rich world building that was easy to follow, I just couldn’t stop listening! I know some people may hate on the FMC, but I thought it was refreshing to have a female lead who isn’t a snarky, sarcastic trained killer. Silla is kind and generous and a survivor, which I believe is a different kind of strength. I can’t believe I have to wait for the next book, I wish I could start it right away!

Well written and performed

Interesting plot and storyline. Wonderful character building. I appreciate the originality of the storyline. The audio performer was perfect.
