About this listen

A heart-stopping duology finale, in which three young semidioses travel through a dark monster-infested world, facing down chaotic Obsidian gods, in a quest to save their friends and return the sun to the sky. Celestial Monsters is the sequel to mexican inspired YA fantasy The Sunbearer Trials, from the New York Times-bestselling author Aiden Thomas.

Teo never thought he could be a Hero. Now, he doesn’t have a choice.

The sun is gone, the Obsidian gods have been released from their prison, and chaos and destruction are wreaking havoc on Reino del Sol. All because Teo refused to sacrifice a fellow semidiós during the Sunbearer Trials.

With the world plunged into perpetual night, Teo, his crush Aurelio, and his best friend Niya must journey to the dark wilderness of Los Restos, battling vicious monsters while dealing with guilt, trauma, and a (very distracting) burgeoning romance between Teo and Aurelio. Determined to rescue the captured semidioses and retrieve the Sol Stone, the trio races against the clock to return Sol and their protective light so order can be restored.

Now the future of the whole world is in their hands.

I could not wait for this book to come out. I read it pretty much immediately and it was great. I absolutely loved it and the two books together are just so well written. it's so nice to read a fantasy book that has trans characters. without that being a focus as a trans person, it's so nice to have fantasy representation. that is not tokenizing and just be benignally represented in a way that is normal in the story.. I am so excited to read the next book that Aidan writes!

fantastic into the story

Honestly this has been so incredible to listen to. It was as fantastic as the first with an added layer with the dual perspective. It was frustrating and heart warming and funny. And I absolutely sobbed at the emotional parts. Truly amazing.

Amazing
