About this listen
A woman on the run. A crew of Viking mercenaries. A forbidden romance. And the secret that threatens them all.
Silla Nordvig is running for her life.
The Queen of Íseldur has sent warriors to bring Silla to Sunnavík, where death awaits her. When her father is killed, his last words set Silla on a perilous quest: travel the treacherous Road of Bones—a thousand-mile stretch haunted by warbands, creatures of darkness, and a mysterious murderer—and go to Kopa, where a shield house awaits her.
After barely surviving the first stretch of road, a desperate Silla sneaks into a supply wagon belonging to the notorious Bloodaxe Crew. To make it to Kopa, she must win over Axe Eyes, the brooding leader of the Crew, while avoiding the Wolf, his distractingly handsome right-hand man. But the queen's ruthless assassin has other plans and hunts Silla obsessively.
Will Silla make it safely to Kopa? Or will she fall prey to the perils of the Road of Bones?
Featuring an immersive world blending fairy tales with Vikings, The Road of Bones leads you on an adrenaline-fueled chase with fun banter and a slow-building enemies-to-lovers romance. It is book one in the Ashen Series.

Very suprising with some beauitful moments and and action.
not predictable at all, I found myself gasping a lot. a lot of really sweet moments and found family. it was a little confusing at the very beginning maybe because of the names but still 5 star for the story. narrator has a beauitful voice with obvious chances for different characters.

Finally a fantasy author who can write
This was a well written book with a great fantasy world and some unexpected twists and turns. The mfc had a little too much angsty inner dialogue but this was the only drawback. Excellent book.

Could listen to this over and over. 5 stars.
The narration on this has ruined all other narration for me. Islay absolutely brought the characters and story to life.
The story is also epic. Vikings, magic, monsters, romance, angst, tragedy. There was character growth and plot development while not being overly predictable. Read the second on kindle straight after because I couldn’t wait but book 2 will be an instant audible purchase for me.
Have I convinced you yet?

I had such high hopes for The Road of Bones, but it didn’t quite work for me. It’s supposed to be a romantic fantasy, but the romance felt pretty thin—I’m guessing they’re saving more of that for the sequel? The story itself had some good moments, but the pacing was rough. It felt like it went on forever, though the final third redeemed it a bit, and I did enjoy how it ended. I am interested to see how the story continues, but am worried the next instalment we be just as slow.
