About this listen
Where the fae and human realms meet…
Same old sleepy small-town France. I spend my days serving patisserie badly to the outlandish crowd at the café, and writing folklore research papers that will never, ever be published.
That’s until my clanger of a drunken hookup with the town’s hot new doctor, who turns into a hideous drac and eats Grampi’s favourite goat. Oh, and not to mention, a troop of ragtag fae storms my home, a fatal illness devastates the town, and a fae curse threatens Grampi’s life.
I may be having trouble accepting this new and delightful side of reality, but my knowledge of folklore means I have a shot at sorting this whole mess out before the town and everything I love is destroyed. The only thing is, I’ll have to work with the devious, scumbag doctor (he’s still picking goat out of his teeth). And he just might be the biggest challenge of all.
With flawed characters and strong emotional arcs, the Folkloric series weaves a beguiling hidden fae world with epic stakes, all the feels and delectable series-wide, slow-burn romance. The chosen one and the perfect hero were so traumatised by the goblins, they upped and left for another book.

Story
In a world where witches are bound by strict laws and immortals walk in the shadows, Seira Dufey’s life takes a dark turn when her mentor, the powerful High Witch Matace, is brutally murdered. Thrust into an investigation filled with danger and deception, Seira is drawn to a vampire who has haunted her dreams, a figure whose presence in her life is as unsettling as it is compelling. As she navigates the treacherous waters of supernatural politics, Seira uncovers a hidden connection that ties her fate to the vampires and the dark secrets that threaten to tear the magical world apart.

Story
When dragons are reborn into the world, the one thing driving them is their desire to claim me. Dragons shouldn’t exist. Being a science major, I know the difference between facts and fantasy, but that doesn’t change the fact that dragons have awakened into the world, and my scent is driving them crazy. Because, get this, I’m a female dragon. And the male dragons aren’t the only ones burning with heat. Now, I’m on the run, with my two male best friends trying to find me, a sexy dragon trying to protect me, and an evil dragon on my tail.

A vampire bit me while we were making out. Now, I'm being forced to marry him. Okay, not forced. I just don't have any other options. My family is being targeted by a dangerous wolf pack, so we turned to our king for help. But he happens to be the guy I kissed. He agrees to keep us safe—for the small price of my hand in marriage. Or mating. Whatever you want to call it, he demands my future.

Every Fairy Tale Comes From A Very Real Story. Fairy tales are just that—tales. Stories. At least that’s what nineteen-year-old Vera and her brother Lieve believed until dangerous characters from their childhood stories turn their world upside down. Running for their lives, the twins discover they’ve entered the realm of their favorite legends, but that’s only the beginning of their problems because: they don’t land together. Separated by ten years of time, they must now navigate this treacherous kingdom full of power-hungry nobles and hidden agendas, all on their own.

When he is suddenly called to court, her stepfather forces Katya to come along and spy on the crown. His instructions are simple: watch, listen, and don't get killed. But nothing about court life is simple, and Katya soon finds herself thrust into the center of a political storm, her every move monitored by the prince's fearsome head of guard, Aemon Cregg.

Their stronghold is located deep in the Underworld, which is exactly the sort of place an Overworld nymph like her should never go. Getting in won't be that hard. Getting out alive is the impossible part.

Loved the overall effect!
The narrator, Liz May Brice, does amazing voices, and has a wonderful drama that suits both the seriousness and the hilarity. Plus, the Author's descriptions are beautiful and effective--also for both. The way that Fae is described is not overly wordy, but comes into crystal focus.
When I originally read the blurb for this book I thought it sounded amazing. What a great blend of drama--which while it does grow more serious--something much more absurd!
Overall, wonderful, and the conclusion promises another entertaining romp in the next book!

A fresh take!
The beginning was a bit slow/rocky but the story grew better and better as it went along!
I'm looking forward to starting book 2!
I don't want spoil anything so I'm keeping my review short. If you enjoy a fresh take on various folklore, this is a good pick!
It was a very enjoyable listen / read!

The otherworldly does exist
Kami just wants to publish her book about folklore, but taking care of her sick grandfather and the goat farm while working her job at the Boulangeri doesn’t leave much time. After a drunk roll in the hay with the new doctor she starts seeing trolls, goblins and other fay. She soon finds that she has a new job. I read the book but the audiobook is even better. What a great listen!

One of the best fantasy novels I had read this year!
"The stories you collect are more important than you know. Tales of fae help humanity remember the other parts of themselves—help them remember us.” (ch 22)
Camille is obsessed with folklore and hopes to publish a paper on it. For her research, she eagerly interviews locals for their stories, despite their belittling attitudes toward her. Of course she doesn't really believe that fae and the creatures in the folklore really exist. She finds out soon enough after a night of drinking and a one-night stand with the town's new doctor, Lucas... That one night opens her eyes to not just him, but to the world of fae that had been right under her nose her entire life!
She's catapulted into this world, a little disoriented, and has to adapt fast. Her grampi's life is endanger due to an unknown fae curse and she has to find the cure. Plus she's reluctantly tasked to become a Keeper of the boarderlands that lay between the human and fae realms... in partnership with Lucas, of course.
I decided to read the book while listening to it, which I think was ideal! This story is beautiful and well-written. Enjoyed the narrator, too. Love the world the author built with memorable characters (Mushum is just adorbs!) and fumbling heroic journey. I enjoyed it immensely and has to be one of my favorite fantasy reads/listens this year! Just got the audiobook for book 2, so am looking forward to seeing what's in store next!!!
FYI, this isn't really a romantasy. It's more of a fantasy adventure mystery. If you like Fantastical Beasts and Where to Find Them (J.K. Rowling 2016 film) you might like this book.

Rich characters and world building.
I love the Folkloric series and this audiobook was an excellent companion to it.
The narrator's pronunciation of the places, people, and things helped move me into the Folkloric world. If I had not read the book first, I may have been a little confused with the many French words and names, but since I had, it simply enriched the story.
This series is worth your time and money if you enjoy suspension of disbelief and want a fun story that has roots in history and mythology with hints of a romance that doesn't overshadow the main plot.
