Book 1 Description:
A spoiled royal hungry for excitement. A young man who hates nobles. Can they foil a kidnapping before they fall prey to an enemy's deadly magic?
Seventeen-year-old Princess Nora Abrios is lonely and bored. Though she’s a frost eater who creates magical ice, she’d give anything for a chance to really cut loose. When a commoner’s flying antics capture her attention, she seizes the opportunity to partner up and escape her dreary palace duties.
Krey West’s girlfriend Zeisha disappeared weeks ago. He vowed to discover her fate. So when his unusual magic catches the eye of the privileged princess, he jumps at the chance to find his love by exploiting the monarchy he hates. But he’s surprised by his feisty new ally’s willingness to defy her family and dig deep into the nation’s darkest secrets…
As new evidence shocks Nora, she makes the fateful choice to flee the capital and join Krey in banishment. And when they uncover a sinister plot which runs darker than the disappearance of one girl, Krey resolves to do whatever it takes…even if he must face down a dragon.
Can Nora and Krey save Zeisha and expose a shadowy enemy, or will their prying spell their doom?
The Magic Eaters is an enthralling dystopian YA fantasy trilogy, plus a sci-fi/fantasy prequel. If you like funny and capricious heroines, smart and snarky heroes, romance subplots, and unique world-building, then you’ll adore Carol Beth Anderson’s fast-paced series.

Loved it!
I was searching for a good series of books to listen to that wasn't non-fiction for a long time.
Having ADHD, I never know what my level of focus will be, and I can't predict if I will be able to follow a story from begining to end.
This serie is fantastic! The narration done by the author is very well done. It's not boring, the different voices that she tries to do to differentiate characters is good as well and makes it more interesting.
The storyline is very good as well, lots of development and I like the mix of science fiction and fantasy, where the world is set with technologies and planets and magic!
The characters are interesting in their own way, and not too basic.
Overall even though the public is probably for young adults I still enjoyed it being 30yo.

I loved all 40+ hours
Normally a 40+ hour audio box set wears me out- even when I love the series already. This one, however, and for whatever reason, didn’t! I enjoyed it to the very end and couldn’t wait to hear what happened.
Narrator review- I really enjoyed having the author narrate. She did a great job.
Story review- I was a little weirded out by the title “Magic Eaters”. Like, what is that? But I decided to give it a go since reviews on Amazon were good. I’m so glad I did! It was a fantastic YA Fantasy story with a unique magic system.
I did get a little confused on the worlds and and then rules of magic- sometimes it seemed like the author took liberties and added things for the story. But I didn’t feel like looking back to see if things lined up. The story was enjoyable enough, it didn’t really matter.

Narrated by the author wonderfully-love it
This is book 1 in The Magic Eaters trilogy by Carol Beth Anderson who kindly gifted me with audio book in return for a non-biased review. It was great and I can’t wait to get my teeth into the next book.
Nora is a lonely and kind-hearted Princess living in a post-apocalyptic world called Anyari. Her ancestors left Earth to colonise this new world and it’s often described what life was like before ‘The Day’ This is when most of the population died along with all technology much like our own. What the survivors got in return was many of them now have magical abilities and Nora is a what is called a Frost Eater. Meaning when she eats shards of ice, she has the power to control and manipulate ice, frost or snow. Others have different magical gifts that manifest in a similar fashion to Frost Eating. They can control stones, fire, earth and some even fly. These are just some of the magical gifts but I won’t tell you more so you can experience this wonderfully created world as you read.
Krey is a Feather and Ice Eater who despises the monarchy, and he believes they are responsible for his girlfriend being missing. Nora is desperate for a friend and forgives his abrupt and obnoxious treatment of her as she just craves a friend her age. Krey needs to get over himself and put his trust in Nora and together they start to investigate other Magical Eater disappearances.
The world building is fantastic and the clever writing paints a very vivid picture in your head. Especially gives you a feeling of dread when you think what it would be like to live with no electricity or mobile phones! That’s a very scary concept for me as my phone is like an extra limb. Lol
This is a young adult high fantast with a little taste of romance and the ending will leave you itching to get to the next in the series!
I would give this a solid 4.5/5 only because I like a little more romance but trust me this is just my preference. This is packed with action and adventure and thrilling twists and turns! I would highly recommend the audio versions as its wonderfully narrated by the author herself! You really can feel her love for this world and the characters.

This is a fantastic set of books!
The world building is great and the characters are so well thought out that it can easily be envisioned. The viewpoints are taken from varying characters in each story with a differing set of gifts and magic from entitled royals down to the "meager" peasant off the street. The fight for survival is very real as each set of people do their best to survive and try to thrive. A wonderful fantasy series to enthrall even the hardcore fantasy readers and listeners. Story telling at it's best!
