Damen is a warrior hero to his people and the rightful heir to the throne of Akielos, but when his half brother seizes power, Damen is captured, stripped of his identity, and sent to serve the prince of an enemy nation as a pleasure slave.

Beautiful, manipulative and deadly, his new master, Prince Laurent, epitomizes the worst of the court at Vere. But in the lethal political web of the Veretian court, nothing is as it seems, and when Damen finds himself caught up in a play for the throne, he must work together with Laurent to survive and save his country.

For Damen, there is just one rule: never, ever reveal his true identity. Because the one man Damen needs is the one man who has more reason to hate him than anyone else.

this is a "Meh" story for me. maybe I was just expecting more of an R rated style. In all honesty I've read fanfiction that is 10x better on this topic/idea. I tried, but I just couldn't fall in love with any of the characters.
not my style but an good idea.

more PG than I expected

It was entertaining, but not a masterpiece. The story is built to titillate. Meh overall.

Entirely alright

I must say the absolute deadpan narration makes the kinky smut a lot less mortifying than it is.
Tonation makes it fairly easy to tell characters apart without sounding silly.

The book itself is amusing enough. A good setup for the trilogy, not that strong on its own.

wonderful performance

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
One has to see how the story goes. The last part of the trilogy is good but not as well-knit as II - which is a masterpiece of plot weaving. This one left a lot of questions unanswered and I wish they added the Summer Palace (the epilogue) to the end of the narration.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Kings Rising?
Laurent and Damen under the stars.... Charles and Lamen :)

Have you listened to any of Stephen Bel Davies’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Book I and II of the trilogy

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I hated the last 2 chapters - until it redeemed itself

Any additional comments?
The books must be done in order to make any sense.

Adictive

The author needs a lesson in writing and how to show emotion without overusing adverbs that are simply any word with -ily tacked onto the end. Neutrally, Stingingly, Mincingly, Grittily. Sometimes in sentences one after another.

Ok story, poorly written
