Über diesen Titel

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.

Kritikerstimmen

"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."

I’ve read the book and really liked it, but listening to the whining and sighing narration of the female narrator is challenging.
Doesn’t really fit the female character in my opinion.

Love the book, not a fan of the female narrator

I've just finished listening to the audiobook.
I have to say, the narrators really elevated the experience. It might have been better than the book itself.
The story itself isn't anything groundbreaking: a princess trying to escape a cruel fate, a possessive wolf shifter in a kilt with a Scottish accent (seriously, Shane East's narration? Chef's kiss!), and a mysterious, devious wolf with unclear motives. It's a familiar setup, but it’s still a fun ride.
While Mrs. Palphreyman didn’t reinvent the wheel, this book is ridiculously bingeable. I found myself hooked, and I’m definitely looking forward to continuing the series.

This is so good!

Our heroine Aurora is a princess engaged to a man that holds brutal wolf fights in his castle. Callum is forced to fight there and later, when he escapes he takes Rory captive.
I would go into this blindly, there are so many twists and turns and you don‘t want to spoil yourself.


SPOILER!

Although I like Rory and Callum, I must confess that I was most interested in Blake. From the moment he was introduced, I just wanted to read about him. When Callum had to leave Rory for a few days to help the King, I was only interested in Blake and was a bit irritated when Callum came back because Blake is so much more interesting. When he confessed to Rory that he had Magnus and his mates strung up in his basement… oh swoon!

It reminds me of A Hunger Like No Other, Outlander, Tempt Me at Twilight, ACOTAR and The Highland Guard series.

such a good Romantasy
