De: Elise Kova

Narrado por: Caitlin Kelly

A library girl with a secret. A dark and fiery prince. When he awakens her magic, there's no going back.

The Solaris Empire is one conquest away from uniting the continent, and the rare elemental magic sleeping in seventeen-year-old library apprentice Vhalla Yarl could shift the tides of war.

Vhalla has always been taught to fear the Tower of Sorcerers, a mysterious magic society, and has been happy in her quiet world of books. But after she unknowingly saves the life of one of the most powerful sorcerers of them all—the Crown Prince Aldrik—she finds herself enticed into his world.

Now she must decide her future: Embrace her sorcery and leave the life she's known, or eradicate her magic and remain as she's always been. And with powerful forces lurking in the shadows, Vhalla's indecision could cost her more than she ever imagined.

Get ready for an epic fantasy, filled with romance and adventure, in Air Awakens, the first book in a completed five book series. This recording is the second edition audiobook, released in 2022.

Loved it

This really got me out of a reading slump. Vhalla is such an interesting character and I can’t wait to see her grow. Prince Aldrik <3 swoon. He really gave me Zuko vibes sometimes

The narrator gave justice to the book. Well done!

The audiobook was narrated by Caitlin Kelly whose voice fit the characters, especially the protagonist, the unwitting sorcerer Vhalla Yarl. There was no need for a full cast as the narrator managed to create subtly different voices for each of the characters encountered in the book. The narration started with Vhalla who has been taught to fear a magic society called the Tower of Sorcerers. She unknowingly saved a powerful sorcerer, the Crown Prince Aldrik. Now, she must choose whether to leave the life she knew and embrace sorcery or remain where she was and eradicate her magic. The book only got more interesting from there. It had elemental magic and sorcery, romance, and war between kingdoms. The narration helped me better understand the book as it felt like Vhalla herself was teaching me everything I needed to know in a pace I could follow. I didn't feel like the narration dragged on which might make a book longer than it actually was. The flow was easy to understand as the book moved from one chapter to the next. The narrator gave justice to the book and the reading style brought the book to life. By listening to this audiobook, I was swept away into the world of the book. I didn't even realize that the audio was coming to a close.
I believe that Vhalla still had lots of things to improve about herself and her sorcery, so I'm looking forward to it and her journey in the next books. I can't wait to listen to the next book in this series! Overall, this audiobook made me fall in love with the series more. I will definitely purchase the next book in this series.

Started off pretty slow

Started off pretty slow, but fantastic ending! I really love this author, so I will read more

LOVE this story!

I’ve loved this story, and this world, so deeply since the very first time I read it. I’m pretty sure I’m on my fourth read at this point, and the second edition of these audiobooks are GOOD!

I LOVE Caitlin Kelly as Vhalla. LOVE LOVE LOVE. I do think Caitlin’s voice fits the role so much better than in the first edition audiobooks.

She did change some of the accents around from the first editions, which I’m still unsure of, since they aren’t even what was in my head when I read the first time through. However, her accents are quite beautiful, whichever she puts on. If you were a fan of the first editions, be aware that the voices are going to be much different than what you’re used to.

That said, I highly recommend these new editions of the Air Awakens audiobooks! I can’t wait to get my hands on the rest of them!

Addicting Read

So glad they decided to hire a new narrator. Really brings the whole series to life!

Takes a bit

This book took awhile. The narrator spoke slowly and dramatically in the beginning, but middle to end, when the actual story picked up, was very enjoyable. Book also took awhile to get interesting. But towards the end, things really picked up. Can’t wait to hear the next one.

surprisingly awesome

Excited to listen to the next installment.
She is mentally mature and strong. Though I'm no fan of the, "he treats me cruelly and I want more", that tends to be the way of romance books. This book made the scenario much more tolerable. I'm happy the author gives the characters so much depth. There's something to like about all of them.
