Resumen del Editor

CAN YOU LOVE THE DARK WHEN YOU KNOW WHAT IT HIDES?

Some things aren’t supposed to exist outside of our imagination.

Thirteen years ago, monsters emerged from the shadows and plunged Kierse’s world into a cataclysmic war of near-total destruction. The New York City she knew so well collapsed practically overnight.

In the wake of that carnage, the Monster Treaty was created. A truce … of sorts.

But tonight, Kierse—a gifted and fearless thief—will break that treaty.

She’ll enter the Holly Library … not knowing it’s the home of a monster.

He’s charming. Quietly alluring. Terrifying. But he knows talent when he sees it; it’s just a matter of finding her price.

Now she’s locked into a dangerous bargain with a creature unlike any other. She’ll sacrifice her freedom. She’ll offer her skills. Together, they’ll put their own futures at risk.

But he’s been playing a game across centuries—and once she joins in, there will be no escape …

Loved it

Great read! Easy to follow. Story was laid out so good. I can’t wait for the second book!

Well written

Well written start of a new series. Narrator did a very good job. I look forward to the next book

.The diverse and believable voices of the narrator.

I loved the storyline and the narrator made it all come to life. I loved this book.

Beautiful retelling of beauty and the beast

I loved the narration I wish she would narrate every book I read . The story was great if you liked a court of thrones and roses then you’ll love this more . It’s just set in New York so more like an urban fantasy . Great book and left me wanting to know if there will be a second book .

Amazing 5/5

This book was an amazing and exciting adventure. It capture your attention from the very beginning. If you love monsters, romance, and shocking revealing this is a book for you! Can't wait for the second book to see how this amazing story will continue to developed!

Great Book Hangover Cure

Rating: 5/5 💕

This book is so phenomenal! This is the first book in an unfinished series, but it doesn't leave you hanging so much that you're mad you read it. It ties things up with nice bows and then sets you up for the next book. All this to say I'm still anxiously anticipating the next book. This author built a world that is familiar to the reader but with a twist of supernatural monsters. I loved that we got to meet so many creatures while there still feels like there is so much more to learn about them! I read this coming off a Fourth Wing book hangover and had ZERO issues getting sucked into this world. I HIGHLY recommend you read this book! Well done K.A. Linde. You've got yourself a big hit!

There is no good or bad.

I really enjoyed this . I’m really interested to see how love story, evolves, It was great context and delivery!

This story was exactly what I needed

The narration was good other than the men sounded weird at times unless it was Graves. I loved the plot twist at the end though you could tell it was coming, overall though I loved this story and it is a new favorite.

Good through the middle then overly complicated

At the start the thief character was interesting, and the accompanying details on planning and execution. The monster theme of creatures long around coming to light isn’t novel but the initial spin was OK. The author couldn’t leave well enough alone, and started adding twist after twist with problems that had solutions out of the blue. At each twist more powers were added, the well-used trope of a person with somewhat unusual characters discovering they were magical ran amok. To me the plot lost all coherence and it reached the point that the characters were no longer credible. Why do fey have to be Irish, and suddenly appear and prove central only at the very end of a story firmly set in New York City?

It wasn’t so bad that I gave up, but I stopped paying careful attention for the last third.

Simply Amazing

I enjoyed the adventure and a new take on an old story. I love the subtle world building and how each character was developed and identified later based on the character interactions. Can’t wait for more!
