Fantasy of Frost

The Tainted Accords, Book 1

By: Kelly St. Clare

Narrated by: Amanda Dolan

I know many things. What I am capable of, what I will change, what I will become. But there is one thing I will never know.

The veil I've worn from birth carries with it a terrible loneliness, a suppression I cannot imagine ever being free of.

Some things never change...

My mother will always hate me. Her court will always shun me.

…until they do.

When the peace delegation arrives from the savage world of Glacium, my life is shoved wildly out of control by the handsome Prince Kedrick, who, for unfathomable reasons, shows me kindness.

And the harshest lessons are learned.

Sometimes it takes the world bringing you to your knees to find that spark you thought forever lost. Sometimes it takes death to show you how to live.

Warning: cliff-hanger ending! Suitable for mature young adult listeners due to swearing.

One of the most unique and captivating series that I have ever read.

I never leave a review but this one requires it. I read the books before the audiobook. This series integrated a coming of age theme while demonstrating an emotional depth rarely achieved in fantasy romance books. The storyline snagged me from the beginning and I found myself crying and I never cry. It is incredibly well-written and the sequels are just as good. I enjoyed the audio just as much. Sometimes a story can be ruined when the narrator is subpar. Not in this case. The narrator is excellent. I loved the way the author develops the main characters and how they interact with each other. Read this book. You won't regret it.

#EnthrallingFromStartToFinish

I’m not big on audiobooks, Ol I’m being honest, but this one kept me hooked from start to finish! I LOVED the narration!

Love this series!

I love this entire series so much. I can literally finish the books and restart it and be happy about it. Well written, great characters, fantastic story!

Fantastic

Olina is a young naive girl that contradicts herself with how wise and open minded she is. Amanda Dolan did such a great job capturing the spirit and strength of Olina's voice. This is one of my favorite books and it was so much fun listening to it. I didn't loose focus at all, Amanda kept me engaged with her lively voice. Just as Kelly keeps you invested in the story from the very first line. I would recommend this to anyone who loves fantasy. Great book. Great narration. Can't wait to hear more.

I couldn't stop listening!

What did you love best about Fantasy of Frost?

I loved the way the author, Kelly St. Clare, had so much to tell. Everytime I had, as a listener of this audiobook, the urge to know something. And when that something was revealed; there was something else I was yearning to find out.The story constantly kept me on the edge of my seat!

Did the narration match the pace of the story?

In the beginning, I had a little difficulty with the narration, perhaps as this was my first audiobook (in English, my mother tongue is Dutch). But after a couple of chapters, I really got comfortable with the narrator and her calm voice was a good start of a relaxing end of my day, with the audiobook.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Living a veiled life can have many disadvantages. But when you're the main charachter in this book; iyou learn how to turn those disadvantages into advantages and mystery.

Any additional comments?

I can't wait to read/listen to the second part of this sequel!
