Acerca de esta escucha

The next seductive, sweeping, action-packed installment in the addictive Sacred Stones trilogy.

A prophecy of death. A weapon of hope. A sacrifice of love.

Arwen Valondale is sailing for the mysterious Kingdom of Citrine after the battle of Siren’s Bay. Still reeling from the loss of her mother and the shock of her newfound powers, Arwen directs all of her pain and rage toward the man who betrayed her: King Kane Ravenwood.

But Kane’s presence is unavoidable as he leads Arwen and her friends on an expedition to recover the Blade of the Sun—a legendary weapon with the power to kill tyrannical Fae King Lazarus. Their uneasy truce proves difficult to maintain, as Arwen battles her unresolved feelings, and Kane is willing to become darkness itself to protect her.

Arwen knows failure to fulfill the prophecy will seal both her own fate as well as the fates of those she loves most. But as Arwen faces creatures, foes, and magic beyond her wildest imaginings, her resolve is tested in ways she never could have foreseen.

"A Promise of Peridot is fast-paced, fantastical, and fun. The second novel in this thrilling romantasy saga leaves you just as breathless as the first, and just as hungry for more. Truly, The Sacred Stones saga is first class storytelling."—Lana Ferguson, USA Today bestselling author of The Fake Mate

"Kate Golden continues to delight with A Promise of Peridot, a magnificent, action-packed fantasy that had me feeling all the feels. With adventure, romance, and a uniquely enchanting world, it's the perfect romantasy! I had such a great time reading it and am absolutely on tenterhooks for book three!"—India Holton, international bestselling author of The Secret Service of Tea and Treason

The perfect slow burn romantacy

Loved this series! This series has all of my favorite things: romance, fantasy, adventure, a good storyline that doesn’t drag on but still has depth. It’s the perfect amount of slow burn. The build up doesn’t drag on and on. The writing is amazing, and the narration is excellent. I highly recommend for anyone who likes romantasy

Even better than the first book

This book was full of adventure and romance. It was so well written and I really enjoyed Kain’s POV. He is so down bad for Arwen.

Descriptive emotion and spice

It’s written pretty descriptive that it feels like youre there. The spice was also upped in this one, it was really steamy and kinda unexpected

The story is getting a little better

I'm not sold on the narrators. Ruby doesn't have enough passion, and sounds more like she is whispering a story to children. Will is a bit better suited to Kane's character, though he also doesn't give enough emotion to the story as it is written.

I liked this second book in the Sacred Stones trilogy slightly more than the first book. The writing is still a bit rough around the edges, making some parts seem more juvenile than others.

The FMC is probably the best written character in the whole book, which makes sense since this is mainly her story. Arwen is flawed, broken, and still mostly naive, and the writing shows that, but there are times when it seems like she has completely forgotten previous experiences with danger or other situations and charges blindly into the same types of trouble over and over again. That isn't a flawed character trait, but it is poor character growth writing.

The MMC, Kane, is an idiot. He is over two centuries old and has been King of Onyx for fifty years, but he acts like an immature idiot who can't make any real decisions. He is so powerful and knows how to use his magic, but for some reason, he doesn't use it when it would make all the difference in a situation.

The ending was pure creepy factor. I'm glad the last book is finally released so I can jump right in and see how the story plays out to its conclusion.

Picking up.

I would probably give it a 4.25 if we didn’t have to do whole stars. I think that the story is picking up and I’m jumping right into the last book.

Good continuation

Again, the narration was great. I don’t think that this book was a filler installment, it added substance to the overall story line. Can’t wait to read the finale.

Interesting Story

It's an interesting story, not too cliche but also not that surprising.

The author does a good job of description and there is good emotion and action.

The characters are flawed which I like but there is some hypocrisy that doesn't seem to be resolved, some people are allowed to lie and some are not. Everyone is morally grey, but it's only okay for some people.

Someone told me it's a fun story but won't change your life. It's not perfect but it is fine.

The downsides are that the author tells and not shows. Honestly she tells us that everyone is friends, but their actions don't really show they like each other. They are mean to each other and lie to each other and the reader sees little support.

The most annoying thing is the male narrator. He is awful. He reads Kane as a melodramatic twit constantly on the verge of a mental breakdown when the words are a driven man who is dryly sorting out his feelings. It makes the climax boring because the narrator is just more melodrama, the male narrator has one mode for Kane. So bad.
He reads the women as shrewish harpies. Honestly he is awful and this absolutely is not the genera for him. He doesn't get it. Maybe read this series.

I do like the female narrator a lot, but the male narrator is just that bad.
