À propos de cet audio

* Instant New York Times Bestseller * Indie Bestseller *

In this stunning new fantasy novel from international bestselling author C. S. Pacat, heroes and villains of a long-forgotten war are reborn and begin to draw new battle lines. This epic fantasy with high-stakes romance will sit perfectly on shelves next to beloved fantasy novels like the Infernal Devices series, the Shadow and Bone trilogy, and the Red Queen series.

Sixteen-year-old dock boy Will is on the run, pursued by the men who killed his mother. Then an old servant tells him of his destiny to fight beside the Stewards, who have sworn to protect humanity if the Dark King ever returns. Will is thrust into a world of magic, where he starts training for a vital role in the oncoming battle against the Dark.

As London is threatened and old enmities are awakened, Will must stand with the last heroes of the Light to prevent the fate that destroyed their world from returning to destroy his own.

Like V.E. Schwab’s A Darker Shade of Magic and Shelby Mahurin’s Serpent & Dove, Dark Rise is more than just high intrigue fantasy—it’s fast-paced, action-packed, and completely surprising. Readers will love exploring the rich setting of nineteenth-century London. This thrilling story of friendship, deception, loyalty, and betrayal is sure to find a passionate audience of readers.

Just finished the book in time to read the second one and I'm excited to get started!

As a fan of Pacat's other work, I have to say I think the Dark Rise series might be my favourite so far. It's rich with lore and likeable characters and, like with Pacat's other work, you can never be too confident about who is going to make it out alive.

Readers coming from the Captive Prince series might find themselves discouraged by the lack of obvious m/m romance elements in the majority of the book, and it's true that this first book isn't a romance, but the ending leaves you with the implication that the rest of the series will have a strong focus on two romantic leads. Basically if you liked CaPri and you're willing to be a little patient, I think you'll like this too.

Pacat outdoes herself with this slow burner

Narrator is clear and well spoken. I love the long slow burn of relationships between all the characters from the beginning of book one all the way to the end of book two. I cannot wait for book three!

Another great read from C.S. Pacat
