About this listen

Plain-spoken, headstrong Ophelia cares little about appearances. Her ability to read the past of objects is unmatched in all of Anima, and, what’s more, she possesses the ability to travel through mirrors, a skill passed down to her from previous generations. Her idyllic life is disrupted, however, when she is promised in marriage to Thorn, a taciturn and influential member of a distant clan.

She must leave all she knows behind and follow her fiancé to Citaceleste, the capital of a cold, icy ark known as the Pole, where danger lurks around every corner and nobody can be trusted. There, in the presence of her inscrutable future husband, she slowly realizes that she is a pawn in a political game that will have far-reaching ramifications not only for her but for her entire world.

Critic reviews

“Dabos’s darkly enchanting debut, a French bestseller, employs vibrant characters, inventive worldbuilding, and a sophisticated plot that will dazzle readers.” (Publishers Weekly)

The book itself was amazing! I couldn’t put it down. However the narrator wasn’t the best, there were mistakes left in the recording and I could hear when she had messed up lines and no one had corrected them. However it was very enjoyable!! I would recommend it!

A fantastic book

great story

I love this series so much. The plot gets over complex and shaky in the last book but otherwise it’s a special quartet.

Favourite ever

Fast pacing fantasy

I ordered this after a friend raved about it in the original French. I’m extremely disappointed in the narration. The emphasis is all wrong in every sentence. The author repeats her descriptions over and over for the same character. It’s like it’s been written for someone who isn’t paying attention. I’m a big fan of this genre but it’s just not sparking any interest.
