Order of Swans

By: Jude Deveraux

Narrated by: Alexandra Hunter

In this spellbinding, fantasy-rich romance, a woman is swept into a world where she has the power to alter fairy tales, and change a kingdom’s destiny…

To Kaley Arens, a PhD student and expert in folklore, fairy stories have always had a power and an allure beyond mere entertainment.

It’s only when Kaley accompanies her lifelong friend Jobi on a visit to his home that she realizes how much she still has to learn. Bellis isn’t the remote island that she believed it to be. It’s another world—a stunningly beautiful and seductive one, with its own royalty, its own rules, and inhabitants who breathe life into the tales she was taught were fiction.

Kaley’s presence is no simple holiday. She has a mysterious connection with Jobi and with Bellis, and abilities that may help determine this world’s fate. Tasked with locating a lost prince, Kaley and her companions—the enigmatic Tanek, a member of the Order of Swans, and Sojee, Kaley's colossal bodyguard—journey through a land both thrilling and terrifying, where the uncanny and the familiar go hand in hand.

But in fairy tales, heroes and villains are easy to discern. Here, nothing is quite as it seems. And though Kaley is discovering that she can change the outcome of the fairy tales she knows so well, her own story is unfolding in ways impossible to predict, with a destiny she could never have foretold…

it was different

I didn't like that the pause button seems to not always work. they're hands been times i had to fast forward up to a couple of hours to get to where I left off.

Unfulfilling

It was hard getting into the book because the narration was frustrating. Her character voices were fine but the filler narrative was not how people talk. While the story line started to hold some promise, it went nowhere.

Buyer beware - no ending

The book went on and on and on … then left me with no ending. So disappointing

How could you end it that way??

I love the story, but I hated the ending. I was really looking forward to them getting back together. Is this a series what’s going on here? Just kinda left you with nothing.
