About this listen
"I love the feeling of a magical world existing just beneath the surface of our own and this story gave me everything I wanted: incredible characters, ancient lore and secret societies – all grounded in our very real, very flawed world . . ." –Leigh Bardugo, author of Shadow and Bone
An explosive fantasy debut that is taking TikTok by storm. Perfect for fans of Cassandra Clare, Leigh Bardugo, Sarah J. Maas and Cinderella is Dead!
Filled with mystery and Southern Black Girl Magic, Tracy Deonn’s New York Times bestselling Legendborn offers the dark allure of City of Bones with a modern-day twist on a classic legend . . .
After her mother dies in an accident, sixteen-year-old Bree Matthews wants to escape. A residential programme for bright high-schoolers seems like the perfect opportunity – until she witnesses a magical attack her very first night on campus . . .
A flying demon feeding on human energies.
A secret society of so-called “Legendborn” that hunt the creatures down.
A mysterious mage who calls himself a “Merlin” and who attempts – and fails – to wipe Bree’s memory of everything she saw.
The mage’s failure unlocks Bree’s own unique magic and a buried memory about her mother. Now Bree will do whatever it takes to discover the truth, even infiltrate the Legendborn. But when the Legendborn reveal themselves as the descendants of King Arthur’s knights and foretell a magical war, Bree must decide how far she’ll go for the truth. Should she use her magic to take the society down – or join the fight?

Best and better
Absolutely loved this intersectional tale, like many other with twists and turns that keep it from being too predictable. Fun stuff!

The Legend continues...
I enjoyed this book a lot, at times a little sappy and the inner monologues got a little repetitive. but overall a great story, fresh take on the legend of Arthur.
I'm looking forward to the next book.

loved the ending
loved the ending but it took too long to get there as if it was setting the scene for an epic series and great 2nd book but as a 1st book and standalone only the last quarter of it was great that I couldn't stop listening.

give it time
this is a complex story arc that takes time to get going, but it is worth the initial perseverance. A reinterpreting of Arthurian legend to include the fright with demons and magic. a good original story that is well performed I will be getting the next installment.
