À propos de cet audio

When old secrets catch fire, everything will burn.

In a mortal world colonized by the gods and ruled over by their cruel offspring, the Descended, Diem Bellator yearns to escape the insular life of her poor village.

Her mother's sudden disappearance—and the discovery of a dangerous secret about her past—offer Diem an unexpected opportunity to enter the dark world of Descended royalty and unlock the web of mysteries her mother left behind.

With the dying king's handsome, mysterious heir watching her every move and a ruthless mortal alliance recruiting her to join the growing civil war, Diem will have to navigate the unwritten rules of love, power, and politics in order to save her family—and all of mortal kind.

Spark of the Everflame is the first book in The Kindred's Curse Saga, a four-book epic fantasy romance series that follows our feisty, bad*ss heroine Diem Bellator in her fight against injustice and oppression, her struggle to survive in a royal palace full of betrayal and intrigue, and her journey of self-discovery and finding true love. This slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers series is perfect for fans of unique magic systems, dragons and other mythical creatures, angst and romantic tension, and hilarious banter.

Vivid story weaving

Enjoyed the fantasy, typical angst, forbidden love and magic. Liked the expressive voice. Burnt through quickly on a work trip making it significantly more bearable.

Immersive Fantasy

An exciting fantasy set in a rich world with layered characters, complex relationships, and a gripping plot, SPARK OF THE EVERFLAME was an adventure I readily enjoyed and want more of.

Diem is a healer working in a realm that is ruled by cruel demigods, and her life is forever altered when she is accepted into their ranks. On entering the world of the Descended however, Diem quickly realizes that her mortal family and friends are hiding secrets that could reshape the world as she knows it.

Diem is fantastic. She’s tough, compassionate, outspoken, and willing to put her life on the line if it means saving those she cares about. I immediately fell i love with her, and truly, found all of the characters to be realistic and interesting. No one is all bad or all good and their motivations are understandable. The romance is definitely slow burn and will grow to be complicated, but what I most loved were the relationships Diem had with her family and her friends, both old and new.

The world building is immersive and easy to follow, allowing for greater connection to the characters. The pacing is solid and the action scenes are well structured. The prose is also very good, allowing for a story that I could easily get lost in.

The ending is a little abrupt and luckily I have the next book in hand, because I am eager to see what happens next!

Love the story but dislike the main character a bit

I loved this story so far and I do enjoy a slower book to really set the scene, however, I find the main character Diem pretty immature and a bit on the naive side which took away from the story a bit for me. I understand the drama needed to create a good story but I found her making poor decisions that were so obvious she shouldn’t make them! Definitely going to listen to the whole saga though, it wasn’t enough irritation to deter me

Intriguing Adventure

I absolutely treasured this book and the 2 books following this. An epic journey from a simple life to Royalty. I highly recommend reading this book and the following two books in the series. After a search for the 4th installment of this series I will be patiently waiting until 2026.

Captivating!! Definitely recommend for an interesting yet easy listen!

I’m pleasantly surprised by how captivated I’ve become with this series! The story pulled me in right off the start and has maintained a great pace throughout books 1 & 2. I can’t say that it’s the most original overall concept, in the sense that it fits the now typical mould for most fantasy romances (SJM and the like). That said, it’s the author’s unique execution of this plot line that makes it shine! Her writing style is great; appropriately descriptive without being too dry and very few ‘slow parts’ between action points - that I noticed.
Also like that the world she’s created somehow lands the balance of being not too far fetched, despite being fantasy. Mostly dynamic characters also make it easy to get invested… Overall, super enjoyable so far and I’m very much looking forward to the next two books!

7/10 Narration

Following her mother’s disappearance, Diem’s life is turned upside down by dangerous secrets that are slowly unraveling. Now Diem has to balance her family, friends and the purpose she is finding in joining the resistance against the Descended royalty. Spark of the Everflame is a perfect start to an epic fantasy romance series. I really enjoyed the world that Penn Cole created in this book. I could feel how well thought out each part of the lore, magic, politics and characters were. This book did a great job of introducing us to the world and setting up a bigger plot we can see coming while also being able to stand on its own. Though I’m not normally a fan of love triangles, I really enjoyed the different romantic dynamics in this books. The contrast of a safe, deep, friend to lovers to the reluctant chemistry between enemies really helped build Diem as a character and showed us how she can be angry and brutal but at the same time see the best in everyone and do everything she can to help innocents. Can’t wait to jump to the second book.

Great story, but narration… ew

Liked the story a lot. Had to buy a hardcopy because I couldn’t continue listening to it here. The narrator seems to produce a lot of saliva while reading. You can hear it. This might not bother some people, but if you’re sensitive to sounds, beware.
