About this listen

They call him the Silent Death, because he kills without sound and leaves none capable of speaking in his wake…

When the empire’s deadliest fae murderer catches her wielding forbidden magic, twenty-year-old Emelin believes her hour has come. Instead, her inhumanly beautiful captor spares her life, but carries her off on his velvet wings into the one place from which no human ever returns:

The heart of the Fae Isles. The treacherous Crimson Court, where the Mother of faekind has ruled unchallenged over fae and humans for decades.

The Silent Death is supposed to be the Mother’s loyal servant, her invincible warrior, her ruthless, soulless killer. But in the shadows he is playing a game of his own, and he needs Emelin’s magic to win it.

If she agrees to work with him, she could free all of humanity. But can she trust a fae male with so much blood on his hands? Worse, when his smouldering dark eyes and dangerous secrets reveal glimpses of the heart behind his murderer’s mask…can she trust herself?

Court of Blood and Bindings is the first book of the Fae Isles series, an enemies-to-lovers fantasy romance featuring a strong-willed heroine and a broody, morally grey hero. It contains a generous dose of smouldering glances, angry yearning, and midnight meetings of the illicit type, as well as other mature themes.

I really loved this, highly recommend. Creon is just swoon worthy! I’m off to download book 2 straight away

So enjoyable!

A handicapped main character who learns sign language - it’s a bigger deal to the non-speaking community than one might realise.

I like the characters, and want to know more about Emmeline’s background. It’s a story I can feel myself getting lost in.

Slow to start but I ended up loving it

Oh, gosh! I really liked this one… No cringey dialogue, easy read still with great world building. MMC followed perfect morally grey trope IMO… and FMC is intelligent and a pleasure to follow! Perfect Fantasy novel to get you out of a read slump.

Really good narration. Liked the heroine, made good decisions for once, while still making the occasional mistake which made her feel real. Hero is like a kicked puppy, poor thing.

Excellent narration and good story
