The Wolf King

De: Lauren Palphreyman

Narrado por: Zara Hampton-Brown, Shane East

A Court of Thorns and Roses meets Game of Thrones in the first book in a sensational new romantasy series where a headstrong princess is kidnapped by the alpha of a werewolf clan, leading to all-out war, and forbidden romance...

When a princess is kidnapped by an alpha, war rages between the humans and the wolves. But soon, forbidden attraction starts to grow…

Princess Aurora longs to escape the castle and the marriage that has been arranged for her.

But on the night before her wedding, at a dog fight where captured werewolves are made to fight for sport, she spares the life of a young wolf. It puts her on the radar of the powerful alpha who was going to kill him. And it changes everything.

That night, when the alpha escapes, he kidnaps her and takes her to the rugged lands north of the border—where the once warring werewolf clans are beginning to unite. He thinks that she is the key to winning the war against the humans.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Duet narrators Zara Hampton–Brown and Shane East pair well together in this romantasy set in an alternative Scotland. Princess Aurora rejects a loveless betrothal in England, instead making a pact with a Scottish clan leader who is a wolf changeling. Hampton–Brown uses an arch tone and a British accent for Aurora, a jaded campaigner who must quickly absorb the intricacies of pack law. East slips on a growly Scottish accent for Aurora’s wolf compatriot, as well as all the other personalities populating the king’s keep. The pair’s many conversations are seamless in the duet narration. As Aurora and her wolf await King James’s ruling on their pact, Hampton–Brown and East build the political stakes and the undeniable passion between the two, making their love story a wild ride."

Great performances by both voice actors

I’m really impressed with both voice actors that performed this book and loved the experience. Their story is OK but enjoyable in the “turn off your brain and enjoy the smut” kind of way. I’m definitely going to keep reading this series.

Love it!

Think acotar but Scottish and with wolves instead of fae. Oh my gosh. The plot twists KEEP twisting!

New Favorite! An AMAZING adventure!

The story is spun here is spectacular; it has excellent pacing and descriptive world building. The readers wrap you in their silky voices and lead you effortlessly through this thrilling romantic adventure! The slow burn of the loose story between the main characters leads to a spicy scenes where their deepening connection is revealed. I was immediately invested and curious to see what would become of wolf clans. This story has left me craving more from the authors AND the narrators. BRAVO! Chefs kiss.. YES! It's 10s across the board! Cannot wait for the series to continue!

LOVE this book

I LOVE this book and tell everyone who will listen to add it to their TBR immediately. I’ve been eagerly awaiting the release of book two so I was super excited that this audio was released just in time for a “reread.” Even though it’s not a true full duet narration, I think the narrators did a great job. Though I will be honest and say that I was a bit disappointed Blake’s voice was done by the female narrator. The audio was still amazing and the book will forever be one of my favorites.

Amazing narration, great character building and a catching love story

Love the FMC! I thought she had great development through the story. Excited to see where it goes!

Perfection.

it took all of two chapters to know I was going to give this 5 stars. I've already read the book but the narrations really brought life to this one and were absolutely spot on. Looking forward to The Night Prince in June.

Jaime Fraser meets Damon Salvatore

This is a reread for me. I loved the book so much I wanted to relisten before the new book comes out next week. I liked the male narrator, and the female narrator was fine until she attempted male voices, and it was terrible. I never understand why duet narration only includes the mains, and they don’t have the male narrator do the other male voices as well.

Great and engaging voices!

I already read the book before the audible version. Even if it’s not a graphic audio version, the main voices are engaging to carry you through the good story.

Freaking AMAZING!!!!!

I absolutely loved this book. The narrators were the best I have ever heard. They totally brought the book alive for me. The story kept me hooked the entire time. The twists were great and I can’t wait for more!

Unexpected, surprisingly good!

"How should I navigate this dark and treacherous forest, when it's the big bad wolf that gives me directions?"

First of all, SUPERB narration! I wish Blake had also been voiced by a male narrator but it seems this will be corrected in the next book.

Story: This book truly surprised me. Sure, it’s heavy on the romance, but in a very gratifying way. Author wove enough plot and royal/ political intrigue with the slow burn romance and spice (which was just right at the right moments). Moreover what makes this an outstanding story are the characters, who are complex and well developed, especially a superbly written villain, who is dangerously cunning and yet seductive in his charm, wit and charisma. He made this book so much more interesting than a bland romance! Can’t wait for the next book!
