About this listen

From the No. 1 international bestselling author of Powerless, comes a sizzling and heart-racing story set in the Kingdom of Ilya. Perfect for fans of The Hunger Games and Fourth Wing.

Adena and Paedyn have always been inseparable. Fate brought them together when they were young, but friendship ensured they’d always protect each other and the home they built in the slums of Loot. But now Paedyn – an Ordinary – has been selected for The Purging Trials, which means almost certain death.

Now alone in Loot, Adena must fend for herself. After attempting to steal, it’s a mysterious man from the market who comes to her rescue. Mak’s shadowy past and secretive power set him apart from the other low-level Elites of Loot. And as the pair team up to see their loved ones before the Trials begin, the quest tests their loyalty, their love, and their lives…

Was this necessary?

I don’t know if this story is necessary to a plot future into other books or if it’s just a sad story? It was ok sad yes but i already experience that in the first book.

If not read in tandem it misses context

I read this in tandem and glad i did because i would of lost alot of context to what was happening.

The male narrator made Adena sound high pitched and so damn annoying that it was painful to listen too. The Female narrator carried this book.

The story didn't meet the hype

Oh my broken heart

I knew how it was going to end! It’s so well written and I wished that had more time together.
I hope Makoto is in the next book and him and Paiden meet- sharing stories about her. The jackets is all they both have left :(

Powerful

I did not like that Adena died and that it was a very short story. I also would have liked if Adena had come back to life or just not have died at all.
