About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

AUREN'S STORY ISN'T OVER YET.

SHE WILL FLY. SHE WILL SOAR.

One king caged my body.

Another has caged my mind.

War has broken out between Annwyn and Orea, though that’s not the only battle being waged.

There’s a fight inside me, and it’s one I’m determined to win, no matter how much they try to strip me down and hollow me out.

Yet they’ve forgotten one thing. The ancient magic of the pair bond. One can never truly be lost when two souls are already bound.

Because Slade and I? We are connected by more than just fated magic, and we will always find each other.

In any life.

The fae king is trying to destroy me. My heritage. My memory. But what he hasn’t realized is this: gold bends, but stone breaks.

And a Goldfinch does not fall.

It flies.

Critic reviews

Praise for the Plated Prisoner Series:
This series has stolen my heart, my breath, my regard for anything else. I've never been so immersed in a story before-never read characters that have felt so real. I've cried, laughed, screamed, thrown my kindle across the room, picked it up again, swooned . . . These characters, this WORLD . . . it's everything. Raven has written a story for the ages, destined to go down as one of the epics
Raven writes with a magic that comes to life on the page. Every single word gleams like gold
This is one of those series that started off phenomenal, and only gets better with every subsequent book.
Get ready to be enthralled from the first word, and begging for more by the last. Raven Kennedy crafts an astonishing world that's filled with captivating characters and a story you won't be able to put down
This series is amazing and I can't recommend it enough. It is one of the best New Adult Fantasy books out there.
TEN GILDED STARS! Remarkably original . . .and the prose, people . . . gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous
An emotional rollercoaster
What I've enjoyed so far about this series is how it's a metaphor about real, emotional issues
I devoured [the] first book and it ended on such a nice cliff-hanger that I am thirsting for the next one
All stars

Throughout the whole series I had moment were I wished it would just end, sometimes I felt as though the story was dragging but I’m so glad I finished it. Who doesn’t love a happy ending!

Overall a good story

A really great story, with a complete ending. (The last 4 hours, could have easily been 1!) I love these characters, the world building, the relationships. It's an epic story even just in this book. I'm a huge fan of the series. Love it!

So beautifully written.

I loved all the characters and the story, the only negative this is I didn’t like the main characters voice, when the lady does it.

Loved this series

Wow so sad this joinery is over I enjoyed it more than I thought I would! The last book is very very good & has so many emotional parts. I think I would have liked a bit more closure at the end for some of the characters but hoping this has been left open for further spin offs in the series. Overall a great conclusion.

What a book & what a series :)
