Stain

De: A. G. Howard

Narrado por: Tim Bruce

After Lyra - a princess incapable of speech or sound - is cast out of her kingdom of daylight by her wicked aunt, a witch saves her life, steals her memories, and raises her in an enchanted forest...disguised as a boy known only as Stain. Meanwhile, in a rival kingdom, the prince of thorns and night is dying, and the only way for him to break his curse is to wed the princess of daylight - for she is his true equal. As Lyra finds her way back to her identity, an impostor princess prepares to steal her betrothed prince and her crown. To win back her kingdom, save the prince, and make peace with the land of the night, Lyra must be loud enough to be heard without a voice, and strong enough to pass a series of tests - ultimately proving she's everything a traditional princess is not.

Slow and steady.

I am used to fast pace tales and after the first chapters I knew this wasn't going to be a tale like that. The author took time to build the story and put in details that wove a fantastic tale to be enjoyed slowly. I was never bored and never thought to put the book down. This is a great tale with lots of detail that covered every question you would have when reading it nothing was left out. Oh and the vengeance taken by the characters wronged was beautiful...

Great Book

The story in the book was slower than the books I normally read. However, it was worth taking the time to listen to, because the story built up to become something magical.

Wonderful Listen

Loved this story. Plot line is wonderful. Captivating descriptions and a nice spin off of old fairytales.

OMG

I love these book!?! reminds me of when I watched the movie. It’s a darker idea, but an amazing idea. I love the way she writes, it gives a great image of what is happening!

I gave it full stars, because it was a work of art!?!

This book is for the True Fairy Tale Lover

Such a lovely story, and so magical. You're going to see reviews where people couldn't get into the book, or that the old adage that "love completes the girl" is so old-fashioned thinking." Let's remember for some of us our true love has completed us in some ways, and helped strengthen us, and in some case, soften our individual selves into a more secure and healthy person. The heroin in this story is strong and beautiful, and while she is happy with her life and herself, it's beautiful to know there is another being out there that makes her even more amazing. I believe that our loves, family and friends make us better versions of ourselves, and this is the moral to this very well told story.

Loved it!

The story was great and I loved the narrator and the different accents and voices!

Great Fairytale

Very complex and extremely rewarding listen. Highly recommend to everyone that loves happy endings that make sense not just a romantic ending. Don’t worry. It has romance too.

10/10 I love it

I couldn't stop listening. It had everything I needed and wanted in a fairy tale.

Twisted Fairytale

This was a fresh spin on the classic fairytale. Lyra is not a damsel is distress; she is a full fledged character that is equal footing with the prince. Great story, Great characters, Great romance!

Beautifully crafted

This was a great story and the narrator did a amazing job at distinguishing between characters talking.
