THE TIKTOK FANTASY SENSATION THAT'S SOLD OVER HALF A MILLION COPIES, PERFECT FOR FANS OF SARAH J. MAAS AND JENNIFER L. ARMENTROUT

'It's the arrogance of men to think so little of women. And it'll be their downfall too'

Locked away in a castle on the snowy mountains in the Sixth Kingdom of Orea, I have never known freedom.

No one can get in or out. Apart from him.

King Midas, who rescued me from the streets. Who gave me food, shelter, and his heart. Who I promised to love forever.

But when political upheaval sees me sent across kingdoms to a future I no longer understand, everything I thought I knew about King Midas is shattered . . .

The world has only ever heard his story.

Now it's time to hear mine.

Critics' reviews

Praise for The Plated Prisoner Series
Gild is a heart-pounding fantasy romance, and this outstanding book will keep you gripped until the very last word. It’s beautifully written and is a truly riveting story. If you love Sarah J Maas and Jennifer L Armentrout this book is for you! This series is gripping, enticing and darkly romantic. Don’t miss out on this un-putdownable read!
This series has stolen my heart, my breath, my regard for anything else. I've never been so immersed in a story before-never read characters that have felt so real. I've cried, laughed, screamed, thrown my kindle across the room, picked it up again, swooned . . . These characters, this WORLD . . . it's everything. Raven has written a story for the ages, destined to go down as one of the epics
Raven writes with a magic that comes to life on the page. Every single word gleams like gold
This is one of those series that started off phenomenal, and only gets better with every subsequent book.

This series is amazing and I can't recommend it enough. It is one of the best New Adult Fantasy books out there.
TEN GILDED STARS! Remarkably original . . .and the prose, people . . . gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous

An emotional rollercoaster

What I've enjoyed so far about this series is how it's a metaphor about real, emotional issues

I devoured [the] first book and it ended on such a nice cliff-hanger that I am thirsting for the next one

I didn't particularly enjoy the narrator (funny accent). the story feels like an introduction and only the end is intriguing enough to make you want to read more.

the end makes it worthwhile

In the beginning I wasn't sure if this audiobook would be anything I like. Then I finished it within barely two days. I highly recommend it. Good storyline. Good narrator.

surprisingly good story

Usually with long series (more than three books in my personal opinion haha) the story line can get too far fetched or just lame, and especially with spicy books the spiciness can be over done. But this series was enjoyable from book one to the end! The protagonist wasn't annoying, the storyline worked through all six books, and it was definitely spicy, with only a few far fetched spicy moments.
The only potential issue, was the female narrators voice seemed a bit old for the character and was a little to nasally, particularly during one of the later books (working through a cold?). Her performance was otherwise very good!

the whole series is great!

It seems like this whole book is only there for world building. There‘s potential. Also weak whining fmc. I see a lot of potential there as well, but for this book she’s kind of annoying. On the other hand she doesn’t play into the typical super young yet super strong fmc trope which is relatable and refreshing.

Slow start, „weak“ fmc with potential for the rest of the series

I mean no disrespect but the voices in this production absolutely don't fit the chatacter. I had a hard time concentrating on the story cause I found the writing actually pretty witty but the voice really put me off. I'll switch to reading the story instead.

offputting voices
