About this listen

From the award-winning author of the Dreamland series comes a new dark romantic fantasy about a young woman finding hope in her powers of destruction.

The Thief Kingdom is a place hidden within the world of Aadilor. Many whisper of its existence, but few have found this place, where magic and pleasure abound. There, the mysterious Thief King reigns supreme with the help of the Mousai, a trio of revered and feared sorceresses.

Larkyra Bassette may be the youngest of the Mousai, but when she sings her voice has the power to slay monsters. When it’s discovered the Duke of Lachlan is siphoning a poisonous drug from the Thief Kingdom and using it to abuse his tenants, Larkyra is offered her first solo mission to stop the duke. Eager to prove herself, Larkyra accepts by posing as the duke’s potential bride. But her plans grow complicated when she finds herself drawn to Lord Darius Mekenna, Lachlan’s rightful heir. Soon she suspects Darius has his own motivations for ridding Lachlan of the corrupt duke. Larkyra and Darius must learn to trust each other if there is to be any hope of saving the people of Lachlan - and themselves.

Welcome to the world of Aadilor, where lords and ladies can be murderers and thieves, and the most alluring notes are often the deadliest. Dare to listen?

I was very pleasantly surprised with this book. As it’s included with my Kindle Unlimited membership, I thought it wouldn’t be that good, but it is. I can’t wait for the second and third instalments!

Such a short read yet took me forever to finish.

Female part of the narration missed a mark in my opinion. The actress pronounced everything with matter-of-factness, which just killed the vibe. Many dialogs could've been salvaged if read with more emotion.

It lacked depth

This has to be one of the best audiobooks I’ve listened to. Narrators were good and the story itself was fantastic.

One of the best

Love this book so much ! I read it several times, but the audiobook leaves a lot to desire... I have originally stopped listening to it as I was shocked by Madeline Lake's rendering of Darius-painful to listen- but the story is so beautiful that I forced myself to finish it. Nelson Hobbs is ok Such a pitty...

Amazing book but untrained narrators...

I was first comprehensive when I first started listening as it took a while for the story to really kick in. Once the main events of the story and the background world building was complete I was captivated. I was pulled into the storh and the narrators really captured the elements I felt this book needed. Great overall.

Surprisingly pulls you in
