About this listen

Now a major Netflix film starring Millie Bobby Brown

'The perfect spin to a fantasy fairy tale'
CHLOE GONG

Elodie never dreamed of a lavish palace or a handsome prince. Growing up in the famine-stricken realm of Inophe, her deepest wish was to help her people survive each winter. So when a representative from a rich, reclusive kingdom offers her family enough wealth to save Inophe in exchange for her hand in marriage, she accepts without hesitation. Swept away to the glistening kingdom of Aurea, she is quickly enchanted by the beauty of its people - and of its prince.

Too late, she discovers that Aurea's prosperity has been purchased at a heavy cost - each harvest season, the kingdom sacrifices its princesses to a bloodthirsty dragon.

And Elodie is next.

A damsel in distress takes on the dragon herself in this epic twist on classic fantasy. Based on a screenplay by Dan Mazeau, Damsel is a groundbreaking collaboration between New York Times bestselling author Evelyn Skye and the team behind the Netflix film, starring Millie Bobby Brown.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Critic Reviews

Elegant and explosive, Damsel has all the fantasy, beauty, dragons, and intrigue of Game of Thrones, elevated by a feminist lens and a powerful heroine-a long line of heroines-determined to do right by the world and by her fellow women. (Delilah S. Dawson, New York Times bestselling author of Star Wars: Phasma and The Violence)
A must-read novel by a must-read author, this brilliant story sparkles with adventure, unexpected love, and stunning twists expertly crafted. Block off an entire day-you're not going to want to put Damsel down. (Beth Revis, New York Times bestselling author of Give the Dark My Love and Night of the Witch)

if you watched the Netflix movie but wanted MORE

this book is fantastic! I watched the Netflix adaptation and as many thought it was a fantastic premise but something was missing. This book gave me that something.

The character development is great, and theres much nuance to everything.

And that ending!!!

Perfect YA novel

This book was phenomenal. No complaints. I was hesitant since there weren't any reviews, but gave it a go because the movie comes out this year. Best decision I've made in a while. Milly Bobby Brown is perfect for the movie adaptation, I can't wait.

I was enthralled by the narrator, she did a perfect job with portraying Elodie (in english) and even speaking the authors dragonic language used in the story.
