About this listen
Throne of Glass meets Black Jewels in this twisted yet alluring dark fantasy tale.
Quinn Darkova, freed from the chains of slavery, wants nothing more than vengeance against those who sold her. But with her dark powers on the rise and her ascension nearing, Quinn's blood retribution will have to wait in favor of her immediate survival.
Lazarus Fierte is a nobleman without equal. He's as controlling as he is stubborn, and for the last six years, he's been waiting for a woman to appear - but not just any woman. A Maji of great power, capable of terrible things. She could be the key to everything he holds dear.
His savior...or his destroyer. The only thing he didn't predict was that she would become both.
Contains mature themes.

Nice story
Fun whimsical story. I liked some of Kel Carpenter’s stories and this was an improvement upon them.
Sometimes I struggle with narration especially with thick US accents. Can be quite jarring to listen to. For example the narrator spoke quite plainly but the last word of each sentence was hard to listen to/understand. Left pronounced as lah-ft, bothered pronounced as bah-thered.

Dark, adventurous, slow burn
Storyline highlights a strong female character who has survived slavery & other trails as she finally discovers just how powerful she is. She & the main male lead have some tension, I’m waiting for things to really heat up in book 2!

Too grim to be enjoyable
This is well thought out and well written. Having said that I didn’t like it. There was nothing to redeem a dark tale. The characters were unlikeable and perhaps not explained well enough for me to accept/understand why their being completely Dark Magic was a good thing. Insufficient efforts to introduce empathy, curiosity, humour, kindness or charm was made for me to purchase the sequel.

..........!
Great world building and introduction of characters. Quin develops into her own slowly but steadily and the story starts shaping to build up for the series.
