Summary

My body is made of scars,

some were done to me,

but most I did to myself.

Keera is a killer. As the King’s Blade, she is the most talented spy in the kingdom. And the king’s favored assassin. When a mysterious figure moves against the Crown, Keera is called upon to hunt down the so-called Shadow.

She tracks her target into the magical lands of the Fae, but Faeland is not what it seems—and neither is the Shadow. Keera is shocked by what she learns and can’t help but wonder who her enemy truly is: the King that destroyed her people or the Shadow that threatens the peace.

As she searches for answers, Keera is haunted by a promise she made long ago, one that will test her in every way. To keep her word, Keera must not only save herself but an entire kingdom.

Good story but a bit drawn out at times. The narrator sometimes sounds like Jennifer Coolidge when she does different voices which I can't unheard but other than that she's good.

Good story

This was my first fantasy book snd I really enjoyed it. Meeting Kiera, and following her adventures. Understanding Elf’s. Halflings and their powers. I recommend this book.

Great Fantasy Book

It feels like this author has been heavily influenced by SJM and there are shades of the Throne of Glass series in her characters. Overall the book is enjoyable if fairly trope-tastic. It feels like book finishes as it’s approaching the middle of the story (a pet peeve of mine) but as it and the second book are currently in the audible plus catalogue this is as annoying as usual. The narration is excellent.

Enjoyable, doesn’t feel like a whole book

The pacing is not always good. I like the story, the characters are mostly good, well written and have funktioning motives. The twists are fun. The mc is a well written character and she is clever, flawed and intressting.

Its good
