Nearly brought me to tears

This book was not that long, but beautifully written and wonderfully recorded. I was glad that this book dealt with hard and brutal topics, and I was quite impressed with the care that was taken to write about it. This story was so beautiful, romantic, erotic, and sincere that I nearly cried. This book is the first in a long while to invite such strong emotion from me, and I loved every minute of the journey.

Surprisingly engaging!!

Honestly I went in with modest expectations, but I was deeply entertained by the competent plot and extremely likable characters. I hope to read more by Fielding, and I LOVED the narrator. His accent work in particular is lovely and very sexy. 10/10.

Wow. Just brilliant

My new dream team. Fielding did an amazing job with this. Greg Tremblay is the best! One of my most fave narrators. His cadence & subtleties with the spoken word are always wonderful. I only wish this book were longer or perhaps part of a series. Great effort, most appreciated!

Loved Greg Tremblay's Performance

This story seemed much longer than just three and a half hours. The story is told in first person POV by a palace guard, Volos. The narrator did a great job of conveying the thoughts and emotions of Volos. Good world building but be warned: there are several rape scenes which, although part of the plot, may be too dark for some readers.

Thoroughly enjoyable!

This is the first audio I listen to by Mr. Tremblay and I enjoyed it immensely. The accents were spot on where they needed be. His voice was pleasant and didn't make huge differences between the characters, making it a pleasant experience. I hope the next Mr. Tremblay audio I listen to will be as pleasant as this one. Well done!
The story itself was quite enjoyable as well. There were descriptions that made me cringe but perhaps were needed to be there to get the right visual (?), which is something I don't want to 'see'. Besides the two different times of 'that' description, the rest of the story was smooth and easy to read. Well done, Ms. Fielding!
