About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin

You know the most dangerous kind of villain? A woman with nothing left to lose.

In a world ruled by the Stars, cruel and merciless gods, Elara has been cursed by fate.

A prophecy promises she will fall for a Star, but that it will kill them both.

Yet when the Star of Wrath and War descends to hunt Elara, the neighbouring kingdom sees an opportunity to take her from her home, the Kingdom of Night, to Helios, Kingdom of Light. Where she strides straight into the arms of an enemy prince.

There, Elara is forced to either let Prince Lorenzo train her into a weapon worthy of battling against the tyrannical reign of the Stars, or to accept her fate.

But there are shadows even within the Kingdom of Light – and they threaten to reveal the darkness in Lorenzo’s past and the ancient magic that slumbers in Elara’s veins.

And with it all, the undeniable, star-crossed pull between them…

Good world building but not well written

On the whole I enjoyed this book, which is basically a romance set in a fantasy universe. I listened all the way through on Audible. The book was very good at hooking the reader in and I wanted to know the fate of the main characters, but at times there were several cringey moments, like when the author uses the F word a bit too much or tries to stretch out the point when the two main characters kiss. There was some interesting world building going on, but the dialogue and interaction of the characters seemed like something from a book written for teenagers. At one point towards the end of the book, one of the main characters does a terrible act and then is congratulated by the other main character, which left me wondering whether this was an intentional breaking bad moment for both characters or just a total over simplification by the author. If this was better written it could have been a great book.
