À propos de cet audio
For years, when I fell asleep, I dreamed of a man with blazing green eyes and a cruel smile. The day I meet him, the ruthless mercenary leaves me for dead.
Just hours after humans are born, the gods take what little power we have. In return, they protect our borders from the vicious, merciless fae.
The humans who manage to keep their power are known as the corrupt. And they are burned.
When my forbidden power is discovered, I’m forced to flee my tiny village and the life I adore. To survive, I make a desperate bargain with the mercenary who abandoned me at my weakest moment.
Our deal is simple: I’ll help him and his mysterious friends sneak into the city, and he’ll help me learn to wield the strange, dark power I’ve always kept hidden—the power that may just be the key to my survival.
But the ruthless mercenary is hiding secrets of his own, secrets that threaten the safety of everyone I love, that could tear this kingdom—and perhaps even this world—apart.
Please note: A Court This Cruel and Lovely is an NA/adult romantasy book with steam. While this series is slow burn, the chili-pepper rating will increase for each book.

Histoire
When I was a little girl, I dreamed a handsome knight would come and rescue me from my wretched mother. He'd ride up on his white steed and break the curse I've been fated to carry since the day I was born. Funny how things changed over time, how the fairytale twisted into something far more crooked—and darker—than I ever imagined. In reality, my knight is scarred and broken, living alone in a castle of bones that overlooks the sea. He isn’t searching for me. He never was.

Devram was created. A realm hidden amongst the stars. The gods gave their Legacy the best of all the worlds, and then they left, a sworn agreement to never return and to never interfere.

Histoire
My father called them messengers. He once told me they walked among us and that somewhere in this dark and godless city, there shined a faint sliver of hope. I had only to look for the signs. Well, I’ve spent my whole life investigating the inexplicable and all I've found are the unsettling vestiges of iniquity—the evidence of another world shrouded by the obscure. Purgatory to some, where depravity hides in shadows, and girls like me are little more than delicious bites of temptation. Others call it Nightshade.

When Pestilence comes for Sara Burn’s town, one thing is certain: everyone she knows and loves is marked for death. Unless, of course, the angelic-looking horseman is stopped, which is exactly what Sara has in mind when she shoots the unholy beast off his steed. Too bad no one told her Pestilence can’t be killed. Now the horseman, very much alive and very pissed off, has taken her prisoner, and he’s eager to make her suffer. Only, the longer she’s with him, the more uncertain she is about his true feelings towards her, and hers towards him. And now, well, Sara might still be able to save the world, but in order to do so, she'll have to sacrifice her heart in the process.

Terrible narration.
The story was interesting. I was intrigued. However, getting through the book was a struggle because of the character narrations. It did not feel like either voice was suited to the role, especially when each person had to take on both gender voices. At times it was tempting to not finish.

Great story! Keeps you listening
I basically binged book one in like 3 days, and I’m enjoying book 2 just as much. The story and characters haven’t been predictable like I somewhat expected because I’ve listened to so many romantasy books. I’m surprised I haven’t heard more about it! It’s a gem

Wanted more details but good storyline so far!
Overall good plot. I’d love to dive deeper into the characters emotions, thoughts and would like more details. I find some reactions don’t always make sense to me because of this lack of information. I also find the structure of the book to be slightly confusing. I’d prefer more chapters but shorter to separate the characters storylines and the different side plots. It’s hard to keep track of time sometimes and when the plot unravels, I find lots of stuff happened “behind the scenes”, instead of letting the readers benefit from how it all happened.
For the narration, but both narrators are good but I have a preference for the female parts. I can really feel the emotions there. The biggest thing I’d change would be that all female voice were done by the women narrator and all male voices be done by the male narrator. Have 2 different voices for the same characters gets confusing for me.
Anyway, I still devoured the book and will move on to the second one right after I’m done with this review! Really wished the series was included in the membership though… I guess book 2 will be read on Kindle, not audio since I have to wait 1 month for another credit…

This cured my ACOTAR hangover!
“A Court This Cruel and Lovely” is a mesmerizing journey into a world filled with magic, romance, and unexpected twists. The author’s descriptive prose and intricate plot kept me captivated throughout. The narrator’s expressive and engaging performance added depth to the characters and made the story even more compelling. This audiobook not only thrilled me but also cured my ACOTAR hangover. Highly recommend!

characters had no dept or consistency, their thoughts tended to conflict with each other in back to back sentences that didn't add value to the story. Truly felt like jarring word stuffing to meet a word count obligation

Cringe
This would have been a great story but all the sexual content was so cringey and grotesque at times I had to pause this book multiple times because of how bad it was. The actual story was really good but the over the top sexual content was SO BAD. Especially with the male narration POV I found it really vile.
