About this listen
What would you do if the game you were playing suddenly becomes your reality?
Saga escapes her mundane life of modern stresses and anxieties, a failed relationship and a monotonous job by immersing herself in an online game. When dark whispers begin to invade her mind, she is pulled through a rift into a world eerily reminiscent of the game she plays.
Whatever brought her to this place stalks her at every turn, a sinister siren song calling to her, bringing her closer to a source of power that threatens everything. Trapped in this confusingly familiar world, she must find herself, her strength and allies to help her survive.
Grand Prior Roseheart, the leader of a paladin order, sees the potential and power in Saga. Persuading her to join his order, he is convinced that she is the key to defeating the dark magic that blights the land — but is that all he sees in her?
Saga’s journey through the world of Theadrath is perilous, taking her from the regal city of Whitekeep, audiences with the vampire council, to the elegant cities of the high elves, where Prince Kailunn Sunseeker rules over the land in the absence of his mother, Queen Sunseeker.
Saga knows the fictional Kailunn very well. Her phone’s photo gallery is filled with screenshots and fan art of him — but is the real prince the same as the man on the screen whom she fell in love with, or does he hide secrets behind his soft-spoken words?

A fantastic listen, well written and well voiced
This book takes you on a journey following the main character Saga as she's transported to a different world, resembling the one from an online game she plays. This is an amazing love story, a true romance through the book while a dark story starts to unfold underneath, pushing Saga forward into more dangerous situations.
Her deep and interesting character is revealed as the story unfolds, her interactions and thought processes are written fantastically and fit perfectly with the experiences of her past. The main character is a realistic depiction of a modern day woman, out of place and our of her comfort zone, coming to terms with her past while trying to navigate a strange world and emotions she thought she wouldn't be able to feel again.
The love interests and supporting cast are excellently written and voiced, each has a unique character and Samantha has really brought each of them to life. The unique first person perspective but from multiple characters really adds depth to this story and allows the reader to experience the different view points and emotions of each of the characters.
All in all I would highly recommend this book, this is a great listen and I can't wait for the next book.

A great audio book to listen to.
I loved the book version of this and when I got the chance to listen to the audiobook I had to jump in.
The narrator really brought these guys to life!
Her tone & texture was so good. Yes texture as there are so many levels to these characters.
Whichever version you choose. You’re in for a treat.
