Story
A prophecy foretold of a journey across the seas that would solve all my problems. But now I'm stuck between an old flame who wants to rekindle what we had, and a jealous vampire who would take the other's head if permitted. Did I mention the psycho goddess Lilis, stalking our every move, intent on killing us all? Despite our troubles, what started out as a cobbled-together faction destined to fail is finally starting to rise to the challenge.

Story
Everyone expected Violet Sorrengail to die during her first year at Basgiath War College-Violet included. But Threshing was only the first impossible test meant to weed out the weak-willed, the unworthy, and the unlucky. Now the real training begins, and Violet’s already wondering how she’ll get through. It’s not just that it’s grueling and maliciously brutal, or even that it’s designed to stretch the riders’ capacity for pain beyond endurance. It’s the new vice commandant, who’s made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is–unless she betrays the man she loves.

For all that is the greatness of this series…PLEASE USE A DIFFERENT NARRATOR! Keep Teddy of course but please please consider a new narrator. I love these books and the story but her rush reading the action scenes is annoying.

Story
I thought that my biggest problem was a curse that turned me into a golden retriever instead of a wolf. Then I accidentally took on a second curse that bound my fate to that of the world’s. If I die, everyone else goes down in flames too. Ragnarök is now in my hands. Great. Talk about pressure I don’t need. Did I mention everyone trying to kill me? My mate. My brothers. My mother. What a clusterfluck. Add in Loki, Freya, and a host of the Norse pantheon to the mix, each one trying to manipulate me to follow their own plans, and you’ve got a recipe for chaos. What’s a girl to do?

But we will need some short stores with Hunter, Shep and Kiera *hint *hint.
This was a perfect short to conclude the Keystone gang and friends. Will definitely miss Wyatt’s munchies, Claude’s masculinity, Jem’s cuteness, Blue’s wisdom, Victor’s English curve, Shepherd’s calmness, Niko’s bravery, Christian’s accent, Raven’s uniqueness and Crush’s parental protectiveness.

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.

Hooolly shiiiiiii…
You do not want to pass this up! Well if we can get a different narrator for Violet…
This was an amazingly twisty, emotional fantasy so well written that the twist at the end wasn’t even a thought at all throughout the entire book. I can’t even really process right now. I mean is there a book that Yarros DOESNT rip your heart out then hand it back to you while saying Just Wait…

Story
Galaxy “Alex” Stern is the most unlikely member of Yale’s freshman class. Raised in the Los Angeles hinterlands by a hippie mom, Alex dropped out of school early and into a world of shady drug-dealer boyfriends, dead-end jobs, and much, much worse. In fact, by age twenty, she is the sole survivor of a horrific, unsolved multiple homicide. Some might say she’s thrown her life away. But at her hospital bed, Alex is offered a second chance: to attend one of the world’s most prestigious universities on a full ride. What’s the catch, and why her?

Am I the only one?
Reviewed: 02-25-23
I don’t get it. I mean it’s a good book but it’s definitely not worth all the hype. I almost gave up but it was definitely interesting enough to keep going but I felt absolutely nothing for the characters. The only redeeming factor is Lauren Fortgang is one of my absolute favorite narrators, the only reason I finished this book.

I have never wanted the next book so fast after finishing this one! Shannon is getting sneakier with her plot twists and cliffhangers! As usual Lauren Fortgang has done a phenomenal job bringing these characters to life!

Plucked out of the Collector’s Pens, auctioned off to a vampire contingent, and sent across the ocean to the Alpha Territories was not exactly how I planned to spend my week. Actually, scratch that. I had planned the first bit. But I was supposed to be sold to the werewolves so I could save my friend from a fate worse than death. Instead, the bloodsuckers have me and so far? It's not going great. I've been shoved into a corset and made to look like an extra on the cast of Bridgerton, all to take part in the Harvest Games....

Shannon certainly kicked up the steam a few notches in this one! The world building, the tension and the push and pull in this new world is phenomenal! Definite Hunger Games vibes but vampire style.
The narrators did an excellent job with the character portrayals. Can’t wait for more!

Story
The Storm Queen has been defeated. And the first two challenges have been conquered. You’d think that it would be all downhill from here. Well, if it was downhill at warp speed into more trouble, then you’d be absolutely correct. The demon city sits before us, and beyond that lies the castle of Asag, the beast from the east. He has our friends. He has our magic. He has the dragon hatchlings. What have we got? Unexpected allies, a twisted path, and the realization that defeating a demon on his own turf...might not be possible. Does that stop us from trying? Not for a second.
