About this listen

 THE INSTANT NO. 1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING PHENOMENON. OVER 5 MILLION COPIES SOLD!

Fourth Wing meets The Hunger Games in this sizzling fantasy romance not to be missed.

Only the extraordinary belong in the kingdom of Ilya . . . The exceptional. The Elites. The Elites have possessed powers for decades, gifted to them by the Plague, while those born Ordinary are just that, banished from the kingdom and shunned from society.

No one knows this better than Paedyn Gray, an Ordinary posing as an Elite. When she unsuspectingly saves one of Ilya’s princes, Kai Azer, she’s thrown into the Purging Trials, a brutal competition to showcase her ‘Elite’ powers.

If the Trials and the opponents don’t kill her, the prince she’s fighting feelings for will if he discovers what Paedyn really is . . . completely Ordinary.

Be swept away by the first in the smash hit, dagger-to-the-throat romantasy trilogy that's taken the world by storm.

Also Available: Reckless, Powerful, Fearless and Fearful.

It was a nice listen and the narrator did well, but ultimately a DNF. It was well written enough, but read like fan fiction that hadn't been altered enough to be an original take. If you loved hunger games and want to re-read but with a story line you haven't heard before then this will be for you

An easy but unoriginal listen

The reviews set me up to fail... The slow sent me to sleep a number of times and though I trundled to the end, I am yet to be thrilled.

Too slow to burn

Absolutely loved Powerless. Very similar to The Hunger Games, but much better! Didn’t see the twist coming at the end.

Fantastic!

Hätte mir gewünscht das wenn Kai in Paedyn‘s POV war oder andersrum das die Stimme auch von dem jenigen gewesen wäre:)

Die Storyline war sehr mitreißend!
