Kingmaker. Soothsayer. Warrior. Mage. Kingdoms would rise and fall for her...if she is ever found.

In the icy North, where magic is might, an all-powerful elite ruthlessly guided by a glacial Queen have grown to dominate the world. Now rebellion is stirring in the rough, magic-poor South, where for the first time in memory a warlord has succeeded in uniting the tribal nations.

Stuck in the middle is Cat - circus performer and soothsayer - safely hidden behind heavy makeup, bright colours and the harmless illusion of the circus. Until someone suspects she's more than she seems....

Captured by the Southern warlord Griffin, Cat's careful camouflage is wearing thin. For how long can - or should - she conceal the true extent of her power? Faced with dragons, homicidal mages, rival Gods and the traitorous longings of her own heart, she must decide: is it time to claim her destiny and fight?

An award-winning fantasy debut with an unforgettable heroine, set against a luminous world on the brink of battle, this is for those who love Ilona Andrews, Laini Taylor or Victoria Aveyard.

Interesting story line but aimmed at older teenagers maybe ?? About third of book is badily written soft core porn and teenage angst. The male lead would probably be arrested for domestic abuse but skip those bits and good story. I'm not going to listen to the rest of the books in series which is a shame because I would like to know what happens but too many bits to skip to put up with.

Good story minus half the book

think the title says it all. I fell in love with the characters, the way the mythology of our world is threaded through and intertwined with the amazing and colourful world of Cat's life.

it's a fresh take on how the gods and goddesses of ancient Greece could impact the world if they were real enough.

im gonna have to buy the whole series

Bought on daily deal and enjoyed it but don’t feel the need to download the rest of the trilogy. A bit too much of a gushing love story. Beautifully read.

Different!

I really was taken by this story, absolutely loved the characters and the story, I felt very disappointed by the detailed sex scenes, which I felt were really over the top and unnecessary.
The story is excellent, and I bought the second in the series before I fell across the sex, and the second book starts with it in about the second chapter. I am hoping it will quieten down and allow me to enjoy the story - which is excellent- without feeling too voyeuristic.

Very good story, let down by over descriptive ....

I bloody love this series so much and what makes it above the rest is the narrator. I wish she would narrate more! Now to the story I loved not only the main relationship but the relationship with beta team, it is so brilliantly written. It’s funny, fresh and definitely worth the listen (I might have listened to this multiple times)

This has to be one of the most understated series
