"I love the feeling of a magical world existing just beneath the surface of our own and this story gave me everything I wanted: incredible characters, ancient lore and secret societies – all grounded in our very real, very flawed world . . ." –Leigh Bardugo, author of Shadow and Bone
An explosive fantasy debut that is taking TikTok by storm. Perfect for fans of Cassandra Clare, Leigh Bardugo, Sarah J. Maas and Cinderella is Dead!
Filled with mystery and Southern Black Girl Magic, Tracy Deonn’s New York Times bestselling Legendborn offers the dark allure of City of Bones with a modern-day twist on a classic legend . . .
After her mother dies in an accident, sixteen-year-old Bree Matthews wants to escape. A residential programme for bright high-schoolers seems like the perfect opportunity – until she witnesses a magical attack her very first night on campus . . .
A flying demon feeding on human energies.
A secret society of so-called “Legendborn” that hunt the creatures down.
A mysterious mage who calls himself a “Merlin” and who attempts – and fails – to wipe Bree’s memory of everything she saw.
The mage’s failure unlocks Bree’s own unique magic and a buried memory about her mother. Now Bree will do whatever it takes to discover the truth, even infiltrate the Legendborn. But when the Legendborn reveal themselves as the descendants of King Arthur’s knights and foretell a magical war, Bree must decide how far she’ll go for the truth. Should she use her magic to take the society down – or join the fight?

Worth a listen.
Good story. As an audio version, the transitions between scenes at times were sudden, taking away from the flow of the story as you work out what's happening in the story. The story is good but is often fast paced (in terms of action), it needed more slower moments (non action) because it was feeling exhausting to listen to. I liked the narrator and the main character, and the unique perspective.

Awesome storyline
I particularly enjoyed the world building & the relationship the characters. The romance aspect of if was a slow burn, but the overall story was nice & fast paced. I look forward to this series but I really hope it doesn't get too messy with the love triangle. I couldn't stop listening. However the narrator's accent was really tough to like. This narrator's voice wasn't meant for this particulat book. Still highly recommended though!!
