About this listen
Powerhouse adult fantasy author R. A. Salvatore and Erika Lewis deliver a sweeping, action-packed, romantic pre-Arthurian tale of the origins of magic (and Merlin), perfect for fans of Falling Kingdoms and Seraphina.
Magic needs a spark.
And Maggie’s powers are especially fickle. With no one to help her learn to control her magic, the life debt that she owes stretches eternally over her head, with no way to repay it.
Until she meets Griffin, the king’s champion, infamous for hunting down the draignochs that plague their kingdom.
Neither has any idea of the destiny that they both carry, or that their meeting will set off a chain of events that will alter every aspect of the life they know - and all of history thereafter.
This epic, romantic tale will enchant listeners and draw them into a thrilling world of star-crossed lovers, magic, destiny, and the paths we choose.

Meanwhile, a war is looming, and Wren’s feral magic may be the only thing that can stop the uprising from destroying the kingdom, her home, and everyone that stands in their way.

Story
Keera is a killer. As the King’s Blade, she is the most talented spy in the kingdom. And the king’s favored assassin. When a mysterious figure moves against the Crown, Keera is called upon to hunt down the so-called Shadow. She tracks her target into the magical lands of the Fae, but Faeland is not what it seems—and neither is the Shadow. Keera is shocked by what she learns and can’t help but wonder who her enemy truly is: the King that destroyed her people or the Shadow that threatens the peace.

Ages ago, sorcerers of unmatched power sundered a world into four realms—sky, stone, fire, and water—then vanished. Over time, magicians learned to work spells only in their own realms and forgot the others. Now only the few who have survived the Labyrinth and crossed the Death Gate know of the presence of all four realms—and even they have yet to unravel the mysteries of their severed world. . . .

Mostly the people and beast 
 what I mostly liked about it was that I like the good guys and also, if there wasn’t the bad guys, it wouldn’t be a story . The thing I mostly didn’t like was probably her scar because how much it hurt at the beginning .

Love it
The story is very well written. Love the strong female lead, and the conflicting emotions of the two main characters.
The plot is consistant, and it's an interesting spin on the origin of Merlin.

A good YA fantasy
This story is more or less in line with Young Adult fiction of its kind. Though that alignment also means the usual "I don't know why I feel this way about this person" sort of thing is repeated several times.
It's an interesting low fantasy setting. The story beats are pretty standard, which isn't automatically a bad thing. With RA as a writer though, I expected a little bit more from the plot.
It also just sort of has action happen quickly. I followed along early for the character development. I did like that scenes seemed to be well described and paced nicely in general. However any of the action sequences are just sort of done in a sentence or two. There's no exciting payoff on any of the plot threads.
If you're looking for simple YA content. Go for it. If that's not your thing, skip it.
