About this listen

You can listen to this fantastical story for free on your device with the Audible Stories Skill. Just say “Alexa, read me a fantasy story,” or “Alexa, read me a story” to hear more free genres.

In this tale inspired by Cinderella (and for fans of The Last Airbender), Ellie is a firemage in a kingdom of water and windmages. Her worried stepmother warns her against showing off her powers, but when everyone at the king’s ball is in danger from a dragon, Ellie can no longer keep them secret. She works together with another firemage to save the entire kingdom.

Lydia San Andres lives and writes in the tropics, where she can be found reading and making excuses to stay out of the heat. The New York Times praised her novel Compromised into a Scandalous Marriage as a “sweet, satisfying, utterly intoxicating historical romance”.

Simple Pastiche

I feel like such a spoil sport, but this series of micro stories that seem to be created for no other reason than to have something for Alexa to play as a novelty is now something I can happily avoid in the Audible Included library.

Take some Cinderella and Rudolph and simmer with some Avatar firebending to create one of those kinds of kids stories that has the message that everyone should be accepted (great)...as long as they go out of their way to prove their value (gross).

The writing and performance have a nice cadence I suppose.
