Publisher's Summary

#1 BESTSELLING GLOBAL PHENOMENON

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Sarah J. Maas comes a seductive, breathtaking book that blends romance, adventure, and faerie lore into an unforgettable audiobook.

When nineteen-year-old huntress Feyre kills a wolf in the woods, a terrifying creature arrives to demand retribution. Dragged to a treacherous magical land she knows about only from legends, Feyre discovers that her captor is not truly a beast, but one of the lethal, immortal faeries who once ruled her world.

At least, he’s not a beast all the time.

As she adapts to her new home, her feelings for the faerie, Tamlin, transform from icy hostility into a fiery passion that burns through every lie she’s been told about the beautiful, dangerous world of the Fae. But something is not right in the faerie lands. An ancient, wicked shadow is growing, and Feyre must find a way to stop it or doom Tamlin—and his world—forever.

Editorial Review

Though the story takes place in a magical world where humans coexist with faeries, A Court of Thorns and Roses is not your typical fairy tale.

Desperate to feed her family, a young woman named Feyre kills a wolf in the woods without knowing that it was a faerie. She is taken against her will to pay for her crime and is held prisoner by the High-Fae Tamlin in his estate. In this land where much is shrouded in darkness, Feyre soon discovers that they are all in grave danger. But what happens when desire takes over hate and the hostage falls in love with her captor?

The first installment of this audiobook series is narrated by actress Jennifer Ikeda. Untainted by background music and sound effects, the narrator’s stable tone and first-person point of view make it easy for listeners to focus on this audiobook’s plot and truly connect with the protagonist. Jennifer Ikeda is, herself, an author and has narrated many other audiobooks.

Fans of romance and fantasy will not be able to turn off A Court of Thorns and Roses. In fact, bestselling author Sarah J. Maas is no stranger to this genre and has received numerous awards for her young adult fantasy novels.

Robotic voice gets better

The first chapter was kind of hard to listen to as the reader sounds almost robotic but right away you either get used to it, or it gets a lot better in general. Couldn’t stop listening.

great book

In the beginning I was bored, but when the story progressed I found myself curious and excited of what will happen next. The writer is very detailed and I felt immersed in the story. The entire series is one of my favorite books that I will never get bored of reading and listening. #Audible1

I was skeptical but WOW

Ok I heard about this series and needed something to listen to so I bought it without even reading what it was about. The first chapter I heard about Faeries and I was skeptical but I bought it so I stuck with it… SO GLAD I DID! I finished the series over 2 weeks, I couldn’t stop listening. So good!
