About this listen
When the messengers from Frain arrive to secure the hand of Princess Illera for their cruel, selfish heir to the throne, Torul, she hides.
Forced by circumstances and her own father, Illera and her three companions journey to the cold, dark north.
Fighting against her fate, Illera plunges the quartet into danger. But when she accedes to the demands of cruel destiny they must fight against a ravening evil that knows no restraint.
Using her mixed blood heritage, can this innocent child learn and mature fast enough to control both herself and the forces ripping her world apart?
Can she negotiate the political intrigues and defeat the hordes of Shul, the pirates of Carnuvon and the hatreds of Frain?

Story
The tale begins in Dark Age Britain, a land where Arthur has been banished and Merlin has disappeared, where a child-king sits unprotected on the throne, where religion vies with magic for the souls of the people. It is to this desperate land that Arthur returns, a man at once utterly human and truly heroic: a man of honor, loyalty, and amazing valor; a man who loves Guinevere more passionately than he should; a man whose life is at once tragic and triumphant.

Awesome story
This book was awesome. I really loved Lera'a Sorrows and I really loved Illera's Darkliete Illera is fighting her fate when she doesn't want to marry the Prince of Frain and runs away but considering Lera's Sorrows and the King in it i don't Blame her. I liked the way we see her use her magic that she inherited from her mom. There was a surprise that I didn't .see. coming and I didn't figure out who she picked. Mini love triangle. All in all wh a t a great book and I can't wait to read more in this world.

Pretty Good Continuation!
This book helps the 1st book make more sense in regard to its purpose.
For the most part, this book kept my attention. Illera is an interesting and strong willed female character. The author does a pretty good job of developing the characters, plot and had great descriptions.
Overall, it was pretty good. However, there were about 2 parts that I hard a hard time getting through. No matter how many times I replayed them to hear and listen, they just wouldnt absorb into my mind or I would find my mind wandering. It wasn't much, but just enough that I noticed. This accounts for the stars off on the story.
There are many aspects of the story that I like a lot. I love that Illera is a healer and part elven. I also enjoyed the world that the author has constructed as well as some of the character conflicts.
The narrator did a great job distinguishing between characters and staying consistent.
I received a review copy of the book and have voluntarily left this unbiased review.

Very Entertaining
Wonderful story! First off I must say that the narration in this book is brilliant! The narrator does an amazing job moving between characters and bringing the story to life. Excellent job! The story is so entertaining I couldn’t stand it when I wasn’t able to listen. There’s action, adventure, a fight for the crown and twist and turns you won’t see coming and unlikely friendships that are formed as Illera ascends to the crown. Highly recommend as it is a great story

I'm Hooked!
If you've read the blurb and are now in the comments section trying to see if you should get this book, the answer is yes! I adored this story and highly recommend it. (Even if you haven't listened to the first one) This story has a bit of everything, action, adventure, mystery, and a touch of romance. It was such a good listen and the narration spectacular, I couldn't help but squeeze in listen time whenever I could! I want to say more but don't want to spoil anything. I was given a free copy of this Audiobook in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.

An excellent book that carries you along for the ride
I truly enjoy the narrators voice. It’s a pleasure to listen to and she does a good job making each character shine. The story of Illera is well written with many interesting characters. Illera herself is a great heroine with both talents and flaws. I enjoyed a story centered around someone who is a healer rather than a fighter. The novel tells the story of the conflicts surrounding her ascension to the throne of her kingdom and there are many surprises along the way.
I recommend this to anyone who enjoys a good fantasy tale.
