À propos de cet audio

From the Amazon.com and Wall Street Journal #1 bestselling authors of the Zodiac Academy series Caroline Peckham & Susanne Valenti.

The dragons are lost.

The elements are at war. Enlisting isn’t optional.

And I’m falling for a man who wants me dead.

I’m a wielder of hearts and summoner of corruption. Heir to nothing and born to a fool in the wrong damn month.

But I’m also one of only two Fae in this divided land of hellions who might be starting to see through the lies we’ve swallowed for so long.

In the year we turn twenty-one, conscripts from across the warring nations of air, fire, earth and water are sent to Never Keep – the only place in our besieged continent where our magic can be Awakened.

But something is wrong inside Never Keep. Something which might extend far beyond the reaches of this desolate fortress. Within the gothic walls of this frigid castle in the snow, we’re left to hold our own against the brutal Fae from the opposing lands.

The Reapers are merciless. The Royals are lying. The Werewolves run rampant and Vampires roam the wastelands in bloodthirsty covens. But even though death lurks in every shadow of the Keep, it’s the least of my worries.

I’m delving into secrets the stars don’t want me uncovering, making alliances with Fae born to be my enemy, falling for a sinner while promising my heart to a different heathen and somewhere amid it all, I’m supposed to win a war.

I thought the only thing I had to do was survive my magical instruction.

Turns out, fate doesn’t favour the wicked.

***This is an enemies-to-lovers romantasy series set in the same world as Zodiac Academy, but it's a dark and villainous tale of its own. You haven't met tainted souls like these before or enemies that hate each other as deeply as these characters do. Book 1 in the series will leave your heart raw and bloody. You'll be left gasping for breath and aching for more of the twisted Fae and they might just be irredeemable... ***

I enjoy the story. Listening to it because my gf really likes the series. I think I'll read the second book on paper back though. wasn't a big fan of the narration.

Great story, poor narration.

it's like you know me.

Unsure if I’ll read book two when it comes out. The pacing of this was slow and a lot of the time I didn’t really feel pulled to care about the characters.
If you were a huge fan of the Manon/Elide dynamic in Throne of Glass, this might be the series for you.

Two unrelated girls go to college, make an alliance, lose everything, and trust the wrong men.

I really enjoyed this book! It’s so different from Zodiac Academy, but still has the elemental magic and orders we’re used to. It’s just a completely different way of living; always at war with the other elemental’s. It definitely kept me on my toes the whole way through, and left off leaving me wanting more! I can’t wait until book 2 releases! As for the narrator, I thought she did a great job as always, but I didn’t love the voice of Vesper. However, I can very much appreciate that her voice was unique from all the other characters and books she’s voiced for the sister’s series, so I guess that’s pretty cool. (Hope that makes sense lol)
Overall great job all around, and a definite must read/listen!

I think this is going to be a great series!

Till chapter 10 it was very hard to follow and to focus - for me. I almost gave up. But then it started making sense. I wanted to see more of the Kaiser, but i guess it’s slow burn. Overall the plot was not very complex and was pretty slow paced - but i hope it will be better in book 2 since things were uncovered.

Nice characters, slow development

If you read zodiac academy thinking never keep would be the same.. it isn’t. It’s more serious but it was still very good and there are some connections to zodiac in the world building. But yeah it was a slow start but around 40% it got interesting! And ending was great. NOTE- in ZA book 8, they mention the waning lands as a far away place from solaria: “The Waning Land was a war-torn world where Elementals were divided, and dictators controlled their people” - this is where never keep takes place! Narrators did a great job.

Well done!

Generally the story is actually interesting. similar to some other books I've recently read, I believe it is misleading to list both a female and male narrator when the female does the vast majority of the narration. the narration is actually quite distracting very breathy and angry all the time. The male narrator seems to only pop in in the last chapter. The inner dialogue of the two main female characters goes on far too long and dialogue is rather repetitive. Having said this the story itself is interesting and the ending does make you want to know what happens next. I just hope for the next book their narration is better and less inner dialogue - then I think this would be a four or five star.

Misleading narration and prolonged inner dialogue

The characters are completely one dimensional andit ultimately makes for a very tedious book. A lot of action/fight scenes with no plot.

Booktok has failed me
