For humans and vampires, the rules of survival are the same: never trust, never yield, and always– always–guard your heart.

The adopted human daughter of the Nightborn vampire king, Oraya carved her place in a world designed to kill her. Her only chance to become something more than prey is entering the Kejari: a legendary tournament held by the goddess of death herself.

But winning won't be easy amongst the most vicious warriors from all three vampire houses. To survive, Oraya is forced to make an alliance with a mysterious rival.

Everything about Raihn is dangerous. He is a ruthless vampire, an efficient killer, an enemy to her father's crown…and her greatest competition. Yet, what terrifies Oraya most of all is that she finds herself oddly drawn to him.

But there's no room for compassion in the Kejari. War for the House of Night brews, shattering everything that Oraya thought she knew about her home.

In a kingdom where nothing is more deadly than love, Raihn may understand her more than anyone, but their blossoming attraction could be her downfall.

The Serpent and the Wings of Night is the first book in the Crowns of Nyaxia series, a heart-wrenching romance full of dark magic and bloodthirsty intrigue.

A good narration throughout, only letdown really was the similarities between this and other big title books. I still enjoyed it enough to continue listening

good narration

This book is so hyped on all social media platforms and I was so so excited to listen to it. But the narrator doesn't do it for me and the storyline is actually not as great as the hype led me to believe. Maybe my expectations were just to high, but i am actually a bit disappointed.

Well...

For fans of fantasy romance, with plot twists and shocks that leave your jaw hanging open - this is for you! I thought I was pretty sure what would happen next and almost every time I was wrong!
Excellent story, perhaps slightly slow to get going in the middle sections but that's the only thing I can think of that keeps me from giving it every star imaginable! Chemistry between the characters and the premise is amazing! The narrator was so good and read with such emotion, I loved the little flickers or breaks in her voice during the harder parts to read! One of the best narrators I've heard in a long while and I have a LOT of audiobooks haha! :)

Brilliant book - can't wait to read book 2!

I liked the general story and liked Vincent, Oraya and Raihn personality wise, and the mystery behind them. However, I would have liked some more in depth background into their personas. Will start book 2 so hopefully that will be achieved there!

Interesting story line
