About this listen

When 17-year-old Kai is exposed as a female sorceress, a moonburner, she knows the punishment is death. Despite the odds against her, Kai escapes her fate and undertakes a harrowing journey to a land where moonburners are revered and trained as warriors.

But the moonburner citadel is not the place of refuge and learning that Kai imagined. The ongoing war against the male sorcerers, or sunburners, has led the citadel leadership down a dark path that could spell the end of all magic. Armed with a secret from her past and a handsome but dangerous ally in the sunburner prince, Kai may be the only one able to prevent the destruction of her people.

The story was good as well as world building. At least to me the main character was slightly irritating at some occasions 😅
Narration was well done. I might read rest of the books in the series as well🙂

This was a magic filled start to the Moonburner Cycle series! Kai was supposed to die when she was born for being a Moonburner, but instead her parents raised and disguised her as a boy. Seventeen years later, her secret is out and she’s sentenced to death, but her story is just beginning. Kai has a strong, loyal, and guarded personality with an open mind that allowed her to not believe everything people told her. I really enjoyed her bond with Quitsu, her seishen and their journey throughout the book. Seishens are like spirit guides for worthy burners and Quitsu was devoted, humorous, snarky, and protective of Kai. I loved learning about Moonburners and Sunburners- their magic, history, prophecy, and the war that is going on. I’ve only read one other book with Moonburners before, but even though their were some similarities, it still felt pretty unique. This book was filled with action, betrayal, friends and foes, magic, and many secrets waiting to be revealed.
Emma did a fantastic job with this narration! It was easy to tell when she was narrating dialogue and inner thoughts. I thought she voiced Kai and her emotions perfectly and she kept me hooked until the very end.

I really enjoyed the narrator's voice. Really credible voice for Kai, but also for the other female and male characters. Not all happy endings and a cliff hanger just after the credits.. I will look out for audio books to see how Kai gets on, especially with the last prophesy. I would also like to see how Kai and Hiro blossom into their relationship with some challenging dynamics.

Moonburner is a great book !
