Summary

A Court of Thorns and Roses meets Game of Thrones in the first book in a sensational new romantasy series where a headstrong princess is kidnapped by the alpha of a werewolf clan, leading to all-out war, and forbidden romance...

When a princess is kidnapped by an alpha, war rages between the humans and the wolves. But soon, forbidden attraction starts to grow…

Princess Aurora longs to escape the castle and the marriage that has been arranged for her.

But on the night before her wedding, at a dog fight where captured werewolves are made to fight for sport, she spares the life of a young wolf. It puts her on the radar of the powerful alpha who was going to kill him. And it changes everything.

That night, when the alpha escapes, he kidnaps her and takes her to the rugged lands north of the border—where the once warring werewolf clans are beginning to unite. He thinks that she is the key to winning the war against the humans.

Critic reviews

"Duet narrators Zara Hampton–Brown and Shane East pair well together in this romantasy set in an alternative Scotland. Princess Aurora rejects a loveless betrothal in England, instead making a pact with a Scottish clan leader who is a wolf changeling. Hampton–Brown uses an arch tone and a British accent for Aurora, a jaded campaigner who must quickly absorb the intricacies of pack law. East slips on a growly Scottish accent for Aurora’s wolf compatriot, as well as all the other personalities populating the king’s keep. The pair’s many conversations are seamless in the duet narration. As Aurora and her wolf await King James’s ruling on their pact, Hampton–Brown and East build the political stakes and the undeniable passion between the two, making their love story a wild ride."

Really good read but shame it didn't feel like a duet.
The story is worth it and most of the narration is great but...
Blake needed his own narrator, it took me out of the world when she started speaking as him and considering he's one of the main characters it stopped me from enjoying the book in the end.

Great story but Blake's voice...

Its a pretty good wolf story. I think Blake is complicated and I kinda wish all the characters were the same. I like Callum, but I think Blake is more interesting.
Aurora really annoyed me for about 40 chapters but she has chilled out a bit once she wanted Callum.😅
I guessed pretty early on about Aurora's heritage when Blake was asking about her mum's illness...so not too surprising!
I am not sure what the next book will be about, but I will read it! 😊

Just wow. I LOVED The Wolf King by Lauren Palphreyman so much.

It ticked all of my boxes — fantasy, strong plot, immersive world-building, compelling characters, and that perfect level of romance and tension. I truly devoured it and went straight on to Book 2 (The Night Prince) because I wasn’t ready to leave this world.

Both narrators, Zara Hampton-Brown and Shane East, did an amazing job and really brought the story to life.

I’ll definitely be re-listening once Book 3 comes out — I just can’t wait.

Highly recommend this book. Enjoy!
