About this listen
Lyrical, imaginative, and wholly original, this New York Times best seller with eight starred reviews is not to be missed.
Rachel Hartman’s award-winning debut will have you looking at dragons as you’ve never imagined them before....
In the kingdom of Goredd, dragons and humans live and work side by side - while below the surface, tensions and hostility simmer. The newest member of the royal court, a uniquely gifted musician named Seraphina, holds a deep secret of her own. One that she guards with all of her being.
When a member of the royal family is brutally murdered, Seraphina is drawn into the investigation alongside the dangerously perceptive - and dashing - Prince Lucien. But as the two uncover a sinister plot to destroy the wavering peace of the kingdom, Seraphina’s struggle to protect her secret becomes increasingly difficult...while its discovery could mean her very life.
"Will appeal to both fans of Christopher Paolini’s Eragon series and Robin McKinley’s The Hero and the Crown." (Entertainment Weekly)
“[A] lush, intricately plotted fantasy.” (The Washington Post)
"Beautifully written. Some of the most interesting dragons I've read." (Christopher Paolini, New York Times best-selling author of Eragon)

Not a bad story. A little lacking in character
The concept for this is an interesting idea and has a fairly good base, however i find the character building may be lacking a little depth. Some of my perceiving the story this way may be because i found the narrative to lack feeling as well. It seems like she is talking almost monotone or as if she is keeping her voice down so others dont hear. i thought it may get better as the story went on and it did a little but it bothered me still. Good enough of a concept that i will consider manually reading the second but I dont think i will use audio for it.

Just one thing...
Curtsy! NOT courtesy. The pronunciation of this one word the whole book drove me nuts! Other than that excellent.
