Resumen del Editor

This blurb contains spoilers for book one, so proceed with caution!

What do you do the day after the world doesn’t end?

If you’re River Keyes (yeah, me), you try to figure out how you’re going to live without the internet. Because we might have kept two worlds from being destroyed, but now I’m trapped in a place with no electricity, no takeout, and no phoning home.

Worse, it’s a world where my absent father is not just present, but in power, and even more of a jerk than I remember.

At least if I’ve got to be trapped away from home, there’s Lasya Zarani, hot elven general and best eye-candy ever. Once he decides whether he wants to cut me to ribbons or take me to bed, things might get interesting.

But that’s only if my father doesn’t kill one or both of us first.

The Elemental Ruins is the second of two books featuring travel between two very different worlds, a snarky criminal trapped far from home, the angry elven general he’s lusting after, his terrible father, and a few surprises along the way. It concludes the story begun in The Elemental Keyes with happily ever afters all around.

Loved it!

The characters are wonderful. I’m so glad there was a sequel. The narration was fantastic!

Great story!

Sam Burns is an amazing storyteller. I have loved all the books! More please! Thanks!

Rough man turned lover

Loved the happy ending, River falls in love with an unexpecting lover. He also has to save all of Hullana from his father's reign

Great story continued

Book one was great and book two picks up right where it left off. Sam Burns wrote a very entertaining story with a lot of detail and depth. the plot is so good. Greg Boudreaux is the only narrator that could do justice to this story. he definitely gave personality and life to each of the characters. Book two does not standalone, you must read/listen to book one first. I definitely 100% recommend these two books. very entertaining.

Story was ok but narration was PERFECT

I agree with the narration saving this book.
The story was good but kinda slow. Greg makes it excellent

Amazing!

loved it the ending was well written had just the right amount of ✨️spice✨️ great story 10/10

amazing performance

you just can't find a better voice actor than Greg Boudreaux. he truly brings the story and each of the characters to life

Not as good as the first book

I really enjoyed the first book and was looking forward to this one because both River and Lasya seemed like great characters that could be really fun together. Tbh the fact that Lasya is such a goody goody guy was a bit of a let down.

My biggest beef with this book might be the weird inclusion of Russian stuff into the fantasy world. It seems totally random that elf demons on a different world would be cooking Russian meals and stuff and calling them by Russian names.

Also the reveal at the end of all those characters being related secretly and so on was a bit far fetched.

Great story, great narrator

I really loved this duet when I read them, but snapped up the audio when I saw Greg Boudreaux’s name!! The words are Sam’s, but Greg really brings out the intension, the humor, and nuances.

Meh...narration saves the book

story was ...meh. I really liked the overall plot and palace intrigue, but the relationship between the main characters got annoying for me. Greg Boudreaux's performance saves the story. I really preferred the Fluke series, though the narrator was terrible. Now if Greg had narrated Fluke....that would have been great. This pair of stories are for when there is nothing else to listen to.
