Summary
Magic marked her for suffering. Magic will save her. Magic will lead her home.
On Tempris, time magic is outlawed, and suspected time mages are hunted. Humans are second-class citizens, shunned by the immortal fey that live on the island. They even have a name for their kind: Shardless.
Taly is one of the lucky humans. Taken in by a fey noble and his family, she's lived a good life, surrounded by people she loves. But when an accidental brush with magic causes her to see things - ghostly apparitions that give her small glimpses into the future - it has deadly consequences. The Sanctorum has returned to the island, and if they find her, they'll kill her. And anyone that tries to protect her.
This includes her best friend, Skye. He was the boy that saved her. The man she knew she could never have. And when he refuses to let her go, their actions might hold the power to reshape the world.
An ancient evil is rising, and in order to protect those that she cares for, Taly will have to sacrifice everything.
Including her heart.
Contains mature themes.

Enjoyable first book - can’t wait to read more!
I purchased this book because I really like the narrator Elizabeth Evans. I want too sure what the story would be like but I was delighted to find it an enjoyable listen and a great introduction to what will no doubt be an exhilarating series. The whole book is really setting the scene for what will come, so there is not much action but a lot of character foundation. It ends on a cliff hanger and the potential for real adventure awaits. Already purchased book two and off to listen to it now!

Very interesting world
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I did not hesitate to buy the second one, even though I am a few days away from a major exam. Also, I am very partial to Elizabeth Evan’s. She is one of the few narrators that transforms a book into an experience. I just want to say a big thank you to the author, narrator and everyone involved in the making of this book.

The story line, narrator, everything
Every time this narrator reads I know it’s going to be a good book and I’ve not been proven wrong yet! This book was everything I needed to be. The main character at times seemed to have differing personalities but in the end I think it made her more relatable as a character, she wasn’t 1 dimensional. Very interesting read.

Excellent debut
A surprisingly excellent debut, great performance and world building by a new author to me. Waiting for the rest of the series to be finished to continue on with the series

Loved this, slow to start but stick with it
At first I struggled to get into this book but I’m glad I stuck with it... this series has the potential to be an epic fantasy series (similar to throne of glass but very tamed down version and lead character doesn’t have the same swagger/ kick ass attitude as celaena sardothien yet)... I’m hopeful for next book to have more action packed twists and turns that this first book lacks (my personal opinion).. but don’t let my words put you off.. I have finished this book wanting to re read it again and can’t wait for the next one to be released ... again the narrator Elizabeth Evans is amazing as always in the books she narrates.. she brings the characters to life!!
