King of Flesh and Bone

The Pale Court Duet, Book 1

By: Liv Zander

Narrated by: Auri Alden, Gregory Salinas

Isolation, darkness, and rotting flesh,

Surround me, suffocate me,

But I am the vile ruler who controls it all.

I long for warmth,

Yet, all that I touch,

Is cold.

Then, she stumbles in to my domain,

Lost and frightened,

Alone and confused.

And I terrify her even more.

She calls me the devil,

So I show her pleasure,

Like only the devil can.

I am the heat that stirs her flesh,

The longing that trembles her bone.

She begs her body to refuse,

To escape my embrace,

But I am her master,

The puppeteer of passion.

I am the King of Flesh and Bone.

Welcome to my court, little one.

King of Flesh and Bone is a full-length dark fantasy novel, the first book in The Pale Court duet. The two-part story features a ruthless man, the woman who can't escape his love, and a happily ever after. This world contains dark themes, violence, loss, and elements of horror some may find disturbing. What this book doesn't contain is a hero—because villains do it better.

An Interesting Adventure

This is a new author to me, I've never read or listened to any of Liv Zander's books before this one but I quite enjoyed it, the narrators did a wonderful job, I could hear the emotion in their voices as the story went on and the story was very original and creative. It's told in dual POV which I liked, first we learn about Ada and the things she's been through and the things she's going through at the beginning of the story. Then we're introduced to Enosh and we learn his story, though we don't learn the stories of his brothers, who are also gods, like himself. Enosh is the King of Flesh and Bone, he has ultimate control of all the bone around him and can call upon a troop of corpses should the need arise.

Ada is a midwife in a small village when we first meet her and she's wanting to keep her late husband in the ground and help a woman in labor, I forget why but one night a year the dead rise from their grave beds and Ada is determined to keep her late husband in the ground. Ada is called 'unwoman' by the villagers because she'd been unable to give her husband a child and they all believed she was cursed.

The story is really creative and has a lot of interesting characters, some of whom are more devious than they first seem. Whenever a member of the Pale Court angers either Enosh or Ada, as punishment they're weaved into a throne of bone and are stuck there for eternity. And we learn that Ada becomes a fearsome queen with a powerful king at her side.

Wow

I have to admit at the beginning I was a lil lost but stuck with it, glad I did because it's been a while since I've been so excited to continue a book. All I can say is well worth credit and the price being asked. Just wow.
