About this listen
The long-awaited companion to New York Times best sellers Graceling and Fire.
Eight years after Graceling, Bitterblue is now queen of Monsea. But the influence of her father, a violent psychopath with mind-altering abilities, lives on. Her advisors, who have run things since Leck died, believe in a forward-thinking plan: Pardon all who committed terrible acts under Leck's reign, and forget anything bad ever happened. But when Bitterblue begins sneaking outside the castle - disguised and alone - to walk the streets of her own city, she starts realizing that the kingdom has been under the 35-year spell of a madman, and the only way to move forward is to revisit the past.
Two thieves, who only steal what has already been stolen, change her life forever. They hold a key to the truth of Leck's reign. And one of them, with an extreme skill called a Grace that he hasn't yet identified, holds a key to her heart.

Bitterblue is a masterpiece!
This series is one of my very favourites. I am so excited for the release of the next book.
This one is perhaps more dark than the other two, but a great story with a lot of depth, interesting characters, an enthralling plot and wonderful descriptions.
The narration accents were not what I had expected, but I enjoyed them more and more through the course of the book.

Great Story!
I really enjoyed this. My only complaint was the narrator's voice for Saphire, which ruined the romantic scenes.
