About this listen

She’s bound to serve her enemy for a hundred years. Now, she’s at risk of killing the man…or falling for him.

After she lands on the losing side of a war, Saga is sentenced to serve Ari Sekundär, the man she despises.

But when Ari is blamed for a tragic assassination, Saga is forced on the run with her reluctant master, and they must work together to survive. Soon hate feels more like passion, and disgust more like desire.

What Ari doesn't know is that falling in love with the enemy will have deadly consequences. But how can Saga tell him? If he gives his heart to her, it will unlock a hidden secret that can destroy the kingdom…and end her life.

Den of Blades and Briars is the tale of The Swan Princess reimagined. This compelling new adult fantasy continues the bestselling world of the Broken Kingdoms as the first book in the Southern Kingdom. Welcome to a world filled with fae, Vikings, and spicy romance. This book has mature content that may not be suitable for all listeners.

I have enjoyed this series a lot more than I expected and I cannot wait for the next book to be released. I’m hoping it’s not a long wait. Each time I read about new main characters I think I won’t like it as much as the last but each time the Mai. storyline is varied even if the journey is often the same with capture, betrayal and falling in love. This is the third Queen so I’m expecting more books to come about the 4th & final Queen and whatever the overall battle will be.

Can’t wait for the next book

I really didn't think I'd enjoy this series as much as I am and after adoring Kase and Malin's part of the story I thought it would be difficult to top that but Ari and Saga's story is just as good so far, as the books have gone on, more of the realms have been explored and we see how all the stories intertwine I'm so engrossed, the problem is now that I so want to know how it all ends but don't want to get to the end of the story and leave it behind.

Even better again,

Ari is my new book boyfriend. He's marvellously written and voiced gorgeously! The story is excellent and engaging— but it is very heavy (in my opinion) on convoluted world building. There are a lot of layers. The side characters, of which there are many, are all interesting and plausible. Ends on an unresolved issue. Not a cliffhanger as such. I will not be reading/listening to the next one without a palate cleanser. The material was too dense to continue to more of the same..

excellent narration!
