À propos de cet audio
For fans of Red Queen and Grave Mercy comes the captivating sequel to the Renaissance France-inspired epic fantasy The Queen’s Rising.
Brienna is a mistress of knowledge and is beginning to settle into her role as the daughter of the once-disgraced Lord Davin MacQuinn. Though she’d just survived a revolution that will return a queen to the throne, she faces yet another challenge: acceptance by the MacQuinns.
But as Queen Isolde Kavanagh’s closest confidant, she’ll have to balance serving her father’s house as well as her country.
Then there’s Aodhan Morgan, formerly known as Cartier Évariste, who is adjusting to the stark contrast between his pre-rebellion life in Valenia and his current one as lord of a fallen house. As he attempts to restore the Morgane name, he let his mind wander - what if he doesn’t have to raise his house alone? What if Brienna could stand by his side?
But Brienna and Cartier must put their feelings aside, as there are more vital tasks at hand - the Lannons' trial, forging alliances, and ensuring that no one halts the queen’s coronation. Resistance is rumbling among the old regime’s supporters, who are desperate to find a weakness in the rebels’ forces.
And what makes one more vulnerable than love?

Histoire
Brienna desires only two things: to master her passion and to be chosen by a patron. Growing up in Valenia at the renowned Magnalia House should have prepared her. While some are born with a talent for one of the five passions - art, music, dramatics, wit, and knowledge - Brienna struggled to find hers until she chose knowledge. However, Brienna's greatest fear comes true - she is left without a patron. But months later, her life takes an unexpected turn when a disgraced lord offers her patronage.

Histoire
I have never been favored by the gods. Far from it, thanks to Zeus. Living as a cursed office clerk for the Order of Thieves, I just keep my head down and hope the capricious beings who rule from Olympus won’t notice me. Not an easy feat, given San Francisco is Zeus’ patron city, but I make do. I survive. Until the night I tangle with a different god. The worst god. Hades. For the first time ever, the ruthless, mercurial King of the Underworld has entered the Crucible—the deadly contest the gods hold to determine a new ruler to sit on the throne of Olympus.

It has been 20 years since the end of the war. The dictatorial Augurs, once thought of almost as gods, were overthrown and wiped out during the conflict, their much-feared powers mysteriously failing them. Those who had ruled under them, men and women with a lesser ability known as the Gift, avoided the Augurs' fate only by submitting themselves to the rebellion's Four Tenets.

Histoire
Winter lasts most of the year at the edge of the Russian wilderness, and in the long nights, Vasilisa and her siblings love to gather by the fire to listen to their nurse’s fairy tales. Above all, Vasya loves the story of Frost, the blue-eyed winter demon. Wise Russians fear him, for he claims unwary souls, and they honor the spirits that protect their homes from evil. Then Vasya’s widowed father brings home a new wife from Moscow. Fiercely devout, Vasya’s stepmother forbids her family from honoring their household spirits, but Vasya fears what this may bring.

Nahri has never believed in magic. Certainly, she has power; on the streets of 18th-century Cairo, she’s a con woman of unsurpassed talent. But she knows better than anyone that the trades she uses to get by - palm readings, zars, and a mysterious gift for healing - are all tricks, both the means to the delightful end of swindling Ottoman nobles and a reliable way to survive. But when Nahri accidentally summons Dara, an equally sly, darkly mysterious djinn warrior, to her side during one of her cons, she’s forced to reconsider her beliefs.

Very Happy with this Series!
Now that the rebellion has the king off the throne, the different houses need to realign and rebuild. Restitution and forgiveness will hopefully allow forward momentum. Aodhan's - who we met as Cartier - whole house has been decimated, and trying to rebuild the Morgane family from the ashes of his ancestral home. Brienna is still very sought-after, but now she has a very strong found family that helps protect her, regardless of what her last name is. And even though the revolution is over, the rebuilding has just begun, and Brienna, and her family want to build something worthy of a legacy.
I absolutely loved THE QUEEN'S RISING and was super excited for this one, so I pre-ordered it right away. Only for it to collect dust for 3 years. But no worries because I read it now!
This picks up right away after the last book, but if it's been a few years between reading them, don't worry! There is a bit of a recap throughout the first 10% to get you up to speed on what is happening, where our characters currently are, and what the next steps are before throwing us into the action of this book.
I thought there was a lot of character growth in both Brienna and Cartier in this book. They have a lot they are dealing with, but always have each other to rely on. Part of the best part of this book is seeing how their relationship continues to strengthen while maturing as the two characters do.
I was excited that this was a duology! Anything more would have been too much and dragged this story on. This had a good mixture of developing relationships and action packed scenes with the plot always moving forward. The ending tied up everything perfectly and I'm very happy with this as a complete series!

Great book, sub-par audio
Prose: masterful
World: a little vanilla, but just original enough to be interesting and recognizable
Story and Characters: great
Narration: Yikes.
The audio performance in book 2 is even worse than book 1. The *book* is great, I loved the story, but the two narrators can't even agree on the pronunciation of names. They give the same characters wildly different accents. The male narrator basically gives every other character a weak, wispy voice, including Brienna and Ysolde/Ysolt. Except Thomas, who has an adorable brogue, until the narrator switches and the woman gives him a typical high-pitched kid voice.
I doubt the narrators even met each other. I love a good full-cast audiobook, but when there's more than one narrator, it's all the more important that they're both briefed on pronunciations and accents. They should have talked to each other, and someone should have coordinated their accents and pronunciation to match,
This is a great book, and Rebecca Ross is a master whose other works I look forward to, but I think it would be enjoyed a lot better as words on a page or screen than in audio form.
