About this listen
Swallow, daughter, pull them in, those words that sit upon your lips. Lock them deep inside your soul, hide them 'til they've time to grow. Close your mouth upon the power, curse not, cure not, 'til the hour. You won't speak and you won't tell, you won't call on heaven or hell. You will learn and you will thrive. Silence, daughter. Stay alive.
The day my mother was killed, she told my father I wouldn't speak again, and she told him if I died, he would die too. Then she predicted the king would sell his soul and lose his son to the sky. My father has a claim to the throne, and he is waiting in the shadows for all of my mother's words to come to pass. He wants desperately to be king, and I just want to be free. But freedom will require escape, and I'm a prisoner of my mother's curse and my father's greed. I can't speak or make a sound, and I can't wield a sword or beguile a king. In a land purged of enchantment, love might be the only magic left, and who could ever love...a bird?

Have loved this book and read it a couple of times now. This audible edition mirrors the Beaty of the written words.

Beautiful
I listened to this book every chance I got. The story had refreshing fantasy elements and the romance was sweet. The only downside for me was the over dramatisation of some scenes. I very much enjoyed Trina Nishimura’s use of characterisation and pace, however some scenes were just too rushed and desperate. Overall, definitely a book I will enjoy reading again.

Irritating narrator
I feel like I would have enjoyed this book much more if I’d read it myself. The narrator made everything so over-dramatic and I really struggled to get through this, I actually had it on 1.5x speed to hurry it along
