About this listen
"There are only two reasons a nonseer would see a spirit on St. Mark's Eve," Neeve said. "Either you're his true love... or you killed him."
It is freezing in the churchyard, even before the dead arrive. Every year, Blue Sargent stands next to her clairvoyant mother as the soon-to-be dead walk past. Blue herself never sees them - not until this year, when a boy emerges from the dark and speaks directly to her. His name is Gansey, and Blue soon discovers that he is a rich student at Aglionby, the local private school. Blue has a policy of staying away from Aglionby boys. Known as Raven Boys, they can only mean trouble.
But Blue is drawn to Gansey, in a way she can't entirely explain. He has it all - family money, good looks, devoted friends - but he's looking for much more than that. He is on a quest that has encompassed three other Raven Boys: Adam, the scholarship student who resents all the privilege around him; Ronan, the fierce soul who ranges from anger to despair; and Noah, the taciturn watcher of the four, who notices many things but says very little.
For as long as she can remember, Blue has been warned that she will cause her true love to die. She never thought this would be a problem. But now, as her life becomes caught up in the strange and sinister world of the Raven Boys, she's not so sure anymore.
From Maggie Stiefvater, the best-selling and acclaimed author of the Shiver trilogy and The Scorpio Races, comes a spellbinding new series where the inevitability of death and the nature of love lead us to a place we've never been before.

Every seven years, the Agon begins. As punishment for a past rebellion, nine Greek gods are forced to walk the earth as mortals. They are hunted by the descendants of ancient bloodlines, all eager to kill a god and seize their divine power and immortality. Long ago, Lore Perseous fled that brutal world, turning her back on the hunt’s promises of eternal glory after her family was murdered by a rival line. For years she's pushed away any thought of revenge against the man - now a god - responsible for their deaths.

Will Patton is perfect
This is the first book in my all time favourite series. I love all of the characters, and this is THE character driven series, and Will Patton brings them to vivid life. I have reread/listened to this series multiple times and I never grow tired of it. #Audible1

Worth a listen/read if you like Supernatural
This book was good over all. I did however find some things described in so kuch detail that my mind wondered. the narrator took some getting use to, as he pronounces his "S" very snake like and it hurt the ears but once I was invested in the characters (about 3 or 4 chapters in) I mostly got over the harsh static of the snakey "S".

AHH! Loved it.
This series took me a little convincing to start, I read reviews off Goodreads and decided to give it a try. Well let me tell you right now that Maggie Stiefvater knows how to bring you right into their world! A little creepy at times, but I was looking forward to listening everyday! Such a good start to the series. Can't wait to continue!

Absolutely amazing series
This series is absolutely amazing, and the narrator is just perfect! I had trouble getting into it at the beginning, but I was soon hooked, and so glad I stuck it out because this entire series was absolutely perfect and so addicting.
