About this listen
A world divided.
A queendom without an heir.
An ancient enemy awakens.
The House of Berethnet has ruled Inys for a thousand years. Still unwed, Queen Sabran the Ninth must conceive a daughter to protect her realm from destruction - but assassins are getting closer to her door.
Ead Duryan is an outsider at court. Though she has risen to the position of lady-in-waiting, she is loyal to a hidden society of mages. Ead keeps a watchful eye on Sabran, secretly protecting her with forbidden magic.
Across the dark sea, Tané has trained to be a dragonrider since she was a child but is forced to make a choice that could see her life unravel. Meanwhile, the divided East and West refuse to parley, and forces of chaos are rising from their sleep.

I eagerly looked forward to getting into a new fantasy and it didn’t let me down. I already have the 2nd book in my library.
I loved it and also thought Liyah did a great job with so many characters to pit her voice to.

loved it!
Book was hard to get into but the accents were fantastic once I got over the idea that accents had to belong somewhere!
A nice self contained story that didn't linger too much anywhere and the pacing was consistent.

Priory of the Orange Tree 🍊
HERETIC; HERETIC; HERETIC; HERETIC; HERETIC; HERETIC; HERETIC; HERETIC; HERETIC; HERETIC; HERETIC; HERETIC; HERETIC; HERETIC; HERETIC; HERETIC; and random Texan accent at the end takes one out of the story! If I change my mind after 3 more re-reads I will change my review … however I am *NOT* a fan of this narrator bc of all the errors she makes.

Pretty good, more reading care would be good
Reader has effective accents but when reading in her neutral English she mispronounces so many words, sometimes says a different word entirely. Very distracting, but if she sorts that out will be good for other books.

no access to maps
The story can be difficult to follow with so many characters and places. I believe the book had illustrated maps which would be helpful but don't come with the audiobook

Good story!
Enjoyed this story. Good plot and characterisation. Took a bit of effort to follow the world described.

Great Story, Awful Reading
A fantastic story about dragons and medieval politics tarnished by horrific accents and childish voices.
if you can push past that then it's a great read

Overall a good read
Very good narrator but not probably not the best choice for this book. A lot of people are complaining about the narration and mispronunciation of certain words. This I feel is very unfair to the narrator and displaying some ignorance on the listeners part. The "mispronunciation" is due to the narrators accent and not her ability to correctly narrate a story.
The story itself was interesting and entertaining. I did feel the charecters lacked any depth and continued to martyr themselves as well as displaying a level of meloncoley which got I little irritating after a few hours of listening.
Overall I would recommend. The concept was interesting and I was entertained throughout.

A world spanning tale of magic and dragons
chapter 1, you are jumped between 3 different people in different parts of the world. Also it starts with a lady freaking out about an unknown ceremony. but don't worry they eventually get to the dragons. the dragons are cool. I like the overall story but some of the smaller details were unneeded. the author labours the point in some place and in others the scene shifts with out much explanation leaving me confused. Also people can travel really fast and there is a lot of "how convenient"
