The Bachelor meets The Hunger Games. Ten women. A deadly contest. Only one can win the Sun King's heart.

Lor has endured twelve long years of torment under the Aurora King's rule. Her only desire is to get free and pay him back for every moment of misery she's endured.

When a surprise release finds her in the hands of the Sun King, Lor is thrust into the spotlight as she competes against nine other tributes for the role of queen. If she wins his heart, she'll earn her freedom and finally get her revenge.

But Lor doesn't belong in the Sun Queen trials. Not only does she not understand why she was freed, she isn't a citizen of the Sun King's court. The other tributes resent her presence and will stop at nothing to ensure Lor is wiped off the gameboard—permanently.

Now Lor must win because if she loses, she dies. Or worse, she'll be sent back into the hands of the Aurora King.

This glittering fae romance is perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Jennifer Armentrout, and Raven Kennedy. Trial of the Sun Queen is the first book in the Artefacts of Ouranos series with an eventual happy ever after.

Great story and versatile female speaker. The male speaker seems to hard to try speaking in a sexy low tone which I don‘t like. It sounds as if he was producing saliva or at least his tone is making me produce saliva in disgust. And yet I just bought part 2 because of the gripping story.

Great story

The story develops a little too slow for my taste, now and then it got a little boring. Nevertheless it was entertaining and I want to listen to the next book.

Okay

Trial of the Sun Queen ist ein spannender und atmosphärischer Fantasyroman, der mit tödlichen Prüfungen, Intrigen und Machtspielen sofort fesselt. Die Handlung lebt von einer konstanten Grundspannung, die durch die gefährlichen Aufgaben und das ständige Misstrauen zwischen den Figuren getragen wird. Besonders die Dynamik zwischen Rivalität, vorsichtigen Allianzen und aufkeimenden Gefühlen sorgt dafür, dass man immer weiterlesen möchte.
Die Protagonistin ist stark, ehrgeizig und nicht makellos, was sie nahbar und greifbar macht. Auch das Worldbuilding entfaltet sich schrittweise und bietet viele interessante Ansätze, die Lust auf die Fortsetzung machen. Allerdings fühlt sich die Geschichte stellenweise sehr vertraut an: Einige Elemente erinnern deutlich an ACOTAR und andere bekannte Fantasy-Reihen, was dem Roman ein wenig von seiner Eigenständigkeit nimmt.
Trotzdem überzeugt Trial of the Sun Queen mit Spannung, Drama und starken Charakteren – ein gelungener Auftakt, der Lust auf mehr macht, auch wenn er das Genre nicht neu erfindet.

Spannung pur

Lor lived in a prison in the Aurora king's kingdom with her sister and brother for 12 years. Then she is kidnapped and forced to participate in the Sun Queen Trials. The winner is supposed to get bonded to the Sun King and rule his kingdom at his side as the Sun Queen.
Lor does everything she can to win so she can get her siblings out of the prison.
Not only the other tributes are making her life difficult, but also the Sun King's guard Gabriel.

The story is told from different perspectives. Lor's POV is told in first person, Nadir's POV is told in third person. It was weird for me to switch between these two at the beginning.

I liked the writing style. I also did like the female main character. I found myself wondering witch male character to root for.
The end made me curious. I want to know what happenes next.

It wasn't the best book I've ever read, but it wasn't bad either. I'm going to continue with the series.

In general I liked the female narrator, but in the first 7 chapters the female main character sais "What's going on?" at least 10 times and the narrator emphasizes this sentence so annoyingly that I thought about stopping the audiobook.
The male narrator was okay.
What else annoyed me was that the female and male narrators had very different talking speeds. Her part I listened to at 1.45x speed and his was impossible for me to understand at more than 1.2x speed. So I had to switch the speed every now and then.

light spoiler

The story caught me rapidly, the world building easy to understand, the character easy to remember and to understand – good to listen to while getting other stuff done. I finished it fast, always wanting to know what happens next.
BUT
The typical bully situation, the plot twist that was foreseeable, but came not that naturally, and suddenly, right before the end, the main character DOES know why the king took her as a tribute -,- The story lost me right there.
The behaviour and the thoughts of the FMC just lost their logic.
Thanks for the while, no regrets here, but I won't finish the series

Yes but no
