Resumen del Editor
"Vivid characters, terrifying monsters, and world building as deep and dark as the ocean." (Victoria Aveyard, number one New York Times best-selling author of Red Queen)
I am Henrietta Howel.
The first female sorcerer in hundreds of years.
The prophesied one.
Or am I?
Henrietta Howel can burst into flames.
Forced to reveal her power to save a friend, she's shocked when instead of being executed, she's invited to train as one of Her Majesty's royal sorcerers.
Thrust into the glamour of Victorian London, Henrietta is declared the chosen one, the girl who will defeat the Ancients, bloodthirsty demons terrorizing humanity. She also meets her fellow sorcerer trainees, handsome young men eager to test her power and her heart. One will challenge her. One will fight for her. One will betray her.
But Henrietta Howel is not the chosen one.
As she plays a dangerous game of deception, she discovers that the sorcerers have their own secrets to protect. With battle looming, what does it mean to not be the one? And how much will she risk to save the city - and the one she loves?
Exhilarating and gripping, Jessica Cluess' spellbinding fantasy introduces a powerful, unforgettable heroine and a world filled with magic, romance, and betrayal. For fans of Libba Bray, Sarah J. Maas, and Cassandra Clare.
"The magic! The intrigue! The guys! We were sucked into this monster-ridden, alternative England from page one. Henrietta is literally a 'girl on fire' and this team of sorcerers training for battle had a pinch of Potter blended with a drop of [Cassandra Clare's] Infernal Devices." (Justine Magazine)
"Cluess gamely turns the chosen-one trope upside down in this smashing dark fantasy." (Publishers Weekly, starred review)
"Unputdownable. I loved the monsters, the magic, and the teen warriors who are their world's best hope! Jessica Cluess is an awesome storyteller!" (Tamora Pierce, number one New York Times best-selling author)
"A fun, inventive fantasy. I totally have a book crush on Rook." (Sarah Rees Brennan, New York Times best-selling author)
"Pure enchantment. I love how Cluess turned the 'chosen one' archetype on its head. With the emotional intensity of my favorite fantasy books, this is the kind of story that makes you forget yourself." (Roshani Chokshi, New York Times best-selling author of The Star-Touched Queen)
"A glorious, fast-paced romp of an adventure. Jessica Cluess has built her story out of my favorite ingredients: sorcery, demons, romance, and danger." (Kelly Link, author of Pretty Monsters)
Reseñas de la Crítica
"Henrietta is pragmatic and bitingly funny, and she more than holds her own in a man's world. Cluess gamely turns the chosen-one trope upside down in this smashing dark fantasy." (Publishers Weekly)

But soon after her arrival at Coldthistle House, Louisa begins to realize that the house's mysterious owner, Mr. Morningside, is providing much more than lodging for his guests.

Historia
Everyone dreams of marrying a prince - except for me. I am nothing more than a pawn in my adoptive mother's diabolical plot against the seven kingdoms. I was the chosen tool, her sharpened blade that would cut the deepest into the heart of the kingdom of Baist. But like all deadly weapons, my wedding is two-edged sword that could cost me my soul. For I am Rosalie, one of the adopted daughters of Lady Eville, and it is my duty to enter into a loveless and hate-filled marriage with the narcissistic Crown Prince of Baist.

Since birth, Nyx has been betrothed to the evil ruler of her kingdom - all because of a reckless bargain her father struck. And since birth, she has been training to kill him. Betrayed by her family yet bound to obey, Nyx rails against her fate. Still, on her 17th birthday, she abandons everything she's ever known to marry the all-powerful, immortal Ignifex. Her plan? Seduce him, disarm him, and break the 900-year-old curse he put on her people. But Ignifex is not what Nyx expected. The strangely charming lord beguiles her, and his castle - a shifting maze of magical rooms - enthralls her.

Historia
Magic has been banished in the land of Syhl Shallow for as long as best friends Jax and Callyn can remember. They once loved the stories of the powerful magesmiths and mythical scravers who could conjure fire or control ice, but now they’ve learned that magic only leads to danger: magic is what killed Callyn’s parents, leaving her alone to raise her younger sister. Magic never helped Jax, whose leg was crushed in an accident that his father has been punishing him for ever since.

Annie and Lee were just children when a brutal revolution changed their world, giving everyone—even the lowborn—a chance to test into the governing class of dragonriders. Now, they are both rising stars in the new regime, despite backgrounds that couldn't be more different. Annie's lowborn family was executed by dragonfire, while Lee's aristocratic family was murdered by revolutionaries. Growing up in the same orphanage forged their friendship, and seven years of training have made them rivals for the top position in the dragonriding fleet.

Definitely has potential...
Any additional comments?
I liked the overall concept of this story although sometimes the characters annoyed me. I think I like one of them and then they go and do something stupid and have to redeem themselves. It was really up and down throughout the entire book but I think it has a lot of potential to become a great series.

Good
I really like this story, the narrator has a good voice and is easy to understand. In occasion, though, the sound quality changes a bit, like maybe it was edited in with a part recorded on a lower quality microphone or something. It doesn’t take away from the story but it happens a handle of times throughout the book. The story is interesting, doesn’t move too slowly, and has pretty good characters. Overall, I like it.

perfect for this time of year
This book is a perfect mix of magic, mystery, friendship (just thinking about what Rook and Henrietta have gives me all the warm feels) and creepiness (I say this as someone who absolutely can't handle horror so some people probably won't find this all that creepy but there was one sentence that really creeped me out, just thinking about the words and the way the narrator said them gives me chills). If people are looking for romance they really aren't gonna find any here, I mean there is kind of romance but also not, it can easily be dismissed and I liked it like that. I liked the fact that in my opinion it was all about friendship, the friendship between Rook and Henrietta but also the friendship between Henrietta and the other sorcerers. I did have some problems with Henrietta, but nobody is perfect. Overall I really liked it and recommend it to everyone!

interesting ride
So, i was going to write this off at first. im glad i didn't (and i was at work so i just sat back and listened.) I enjoyed every word of Henretta's journey and her struggle with her powers and the precarious position between love and friendship with Rook.
I was sure i knew how this was going to end when the other boys were introduced, boy i was pleasently surprised!
chaste looks, unsure feelings, honestly i loved it.
The steuggle of being a woman with power and everyones desire to box her and her devotion to wanting to help those in need was refeshing in the context of Pride and Prejudice feel.
i got frustrated on her behalf many times, having to even shake myself that she is in a hard spot with wanting to belong but also having to conform.
I am glad I gave this a shot.
NOW ON TO THE NEXT BOOK I GOTTA CREDIT TO BURN. BWHAHAHA

Don't listen to negative reviews
After reading several negative reviews about how this book was boring, hard to get through, or predictable, I almost did not use a credit on it. I am really glad I did.
First off, the performance of the narrator was incredible. Her voices were quite good, and her accents were nice to listen to. She was great witn dramatic pauses and voices, and added plenty of emotion to different characters. I am going to find other books she has narrated, because she seems really talented.
The story was really interesting. I found that I didn't know who to trust or distrust, and I was surprised by the final twists. I didn't necessarily find this book to be predictable. I didn't guess some of the twists and turns, but, then again, I'm not a picky reader. I thoroughly enjoyed the character developments throughout the book, especially that of Lord Blackwood. I enjoyed the historical aspects of the book, how it is almost like an alternate reality where magic exists. The setting was enjoyable, and so was the dialogue. I found myself amused at multiple points throughout the book.
Overall, a really good listen. Definitely worth the credit, and I will be buying the next two books.

Meh. Pride and prejudice meets Harry Potter? Not really
The story started off great. But it ended up dragging. I actually skipped through the last 1.5. The story has promise, and might come together next book. But I hate when a mystery drags on too long. The relationships didn't develop enough and romance some what flat. I'm shocked I'm not really giving it a good review. Because I love Fiona Hardingham. I could try to rethink k this book. It just seemed like they had a great idea but then met writers block and we had to sit through it too.

enjoyable listen for those who love magic
A very interesting story - a nice new creative take on magic. The narrator was good - did a great job with the characters. If you like Victorian England with magic, this is the story for you. My only negative is the series isn't complete so you have to wait for the books to be released.

A Mysterious and Magical Novel
Where does A Shadow Bright and Burning rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
A Shadow Bright and Burning ranks in the definite Top, 5-star ratings.
Who was your favorite character and why?
My favorite character was, after Henrietta Howel of course, Magnus. I thought he'd be the one to betray her, but he was so darned likable and funny.
What does Fiona Hardingham bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Other than her lovely accent, she brought the characters to life. She didn't just read the story, she gave each character personality and realism. Not many readers do that.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I absolutely could have listened to this novel in one sitting. Sadly, I am a homeschool teacher and housewife, so I listen when I'm doing chores, or in between lessons.
Any additional comments?
Cluess wrote with a sort of webbing, where I saw nothing coming. What I thought was to happen didn't, but something greater occurred that blew me away. She wrote with a descriptive style that was truly Victorian and English and fabulous. I don't know anyone who could pick this book up and not find themselves captivated. A Shadow Bright and Burning is also book one of the Kingdom of Fire series. Book two, A Poison Dark and Drowning released September of this year. I'll be sure to read that one as well and share

quite good
I was not expecting much but I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the plotting and development of the characters. The heroine is a sort of Jane Eyre with supernatural powers. It has got a nice Victoria era flare whenever the author feels like it, and is otherwise am entertaining read.

A surprisingly refreshing read
The Victorian England backdrop and the interesting dynamics of the sorcerer/magician/witch hierarchy made this book feel very different and new compared to other YA books out there. I loved it and am immediately going to read the sequel.
