Acerca de esta escucha

From number-one best-selling and Amazon All-Star Author Kathryn Le Veque comes a dark Medieval romance of hatred, revenge, and, ultimately, redemption. Enter the Devil's Dominion....

AD 1205 - it's years after The Dark Lord Jax de Velt tore through the Welsh marches and captured several castles. Still he holds lands that do not belong to him. Out of the ashes from this dark and lawless time rises the son of one of the men Jax de Velt put to the stake. Bent on revenge against The Dark Lord, Bretton de Llion has grown up in obscurity, hidden from de Velt's rage, and has learned to hate the very world around him. His sense of vengeance against de Velt has been his guiding force for years. Gathering a powerful mercenary army, Bretton rages through Wales, emulating de Velt's reign of terror, killing and destroying, moving toward a target he has long planned for - abducting one of Jax de Velt's children in order to lure Jax into his trap. Discovering that Jax's eldest daughter is a novice nun at Alberbury Priory, he burns down the priory in his quest to abduct Lady Allaston de Velt. Successful in his endeavor, he sends word to de Velt: Come to me, or your daughter will suffer. His perfect revenge is planned.

But it is not so perfect when this warrior, who has never known love or kindness, discovers feelings for the daughter of the man he has hated his entire life. Join Bretton and Allaston in a very complex journey of terror, sadness, and the ultimate conquest - love. Old friends such as Christopher de Lohr and Keller de Poyer join Jax de Velt as integral parts of this riveting Medieval tale.

Can Allaston prevent Bretton from killing her father? Or do old hatreds burn too deep? Enter the Devil's Dominion at your own risk.

The Very Best Book This Year

Devil's Dominion by Kathryn Le Veque js absolutely the very best book I have read this year. it has everything anyone can want in a book: terror, war, dungeons, intrigue, kidnapping, brutality, tears, laughter, concern, and happiness. It is a gripping story from beginning to end.


Bretton De Leon escaped his father's castle as it is being over run by mercanaries at age five. after a life of horrors at age thirty, he returns to Wales with an army of mercanaries for vengeance. With death and destruction as his weapons he captures the daughter of the man that wrecked his life by capturing his father's castle. Now you must read the book to see the twists and turns Kathryn Le Veque will guide you through to the culmination. Truly, Brad Wills is a premiere narrator also.

I LOVE KATHRYN LE VEQUE'S STORIES....

I normally love Kathryn LeVeque's stories, however, this story was a little graphic and dark for a romance. I found it to be very repetitive and slow at times. Brad Wills is wonderful as the narrator, as usual. The voices he comes up with are truly amazing. He doesn't just narrate a story...he "acts" a story...and there is a huge difference in that. I will still continue to listen to KL's stories, but, this one...I couldn't give it the five stars I usually do.

Brutal but Beautiful

Admittedly, Devil's Dominion is a hard pill to swallow in many ways. If you're sensitive to scenes and descriptions of excruciating brutality, you may want to pass on this one. However, if you're able to struggle through, you will be rewarded with one of the most beautiful and moving happy endings. For me it was worth it.
The narrator, Brad Wills, is typically brilliant. He doesn't read; he performs. He has become my absolute favorite male narrator on Audible. He never disappoints.

Better to have read it

Terrific story, but Brad Wills made the female characters sound silly, shallow and affected. A different narrator might have helped

Heavenly Delight

But you need to walk through Hells Half Acre first. Vivid descriptions of the turmoil and terror. Well described emotions. When the good stuff happens it is a delight. Brad Wills gives an amazing voice to all of this. Enjoy.

A Different Kind Of Knight

Not the highly polished, courtly knights of the highest order this time. These dreaded knights of the lowest kind are messing up castles, destroying families, pillaging and plundering, reaking havoc in general. Well worth the read. After all, the author is Kathryn LeVeque.

What A Book!

I could not stop listening to this book. You can understand the turmoil, fear, the violence Bretton saw at 5 years old. This would have left a lasting impression on him and he was alone. His family was dead. It changed him into the man he became. This story reminds me of the Christians during Roman rule, how they would dehumanize them. This was no different. The love that developed between Bretton and Allaston was his salvation.

There is cruelty (true historical crulty) in this book. IT HAPPENED. If you can get past the cruelty and into the substance of the book, you will really enjoy it especially with Brad Wills as the narrator. He does not disappoint. I must remind you, this is not the easiest book to listen too.. But Oh, KLV is on her job.

Wonderful!!

This story and the narration of Brad Wills caused me to think my heart was torn out of my chest. The love scene brought tears to my eyes. Such talent of Kathryn and Brad would make a grown man's hair stand on end with the drama and passion in this story! Bravo!!

Totally riveting and excruciatingly emotive

Any additional comments?

If you’ve followed my reviews and blog, you’ll know how much I love what and how Kathryn Le Veque writes. As I read her books, I find no matter what series I’m reading I re-acquaint myself with characters from previous books. It’s like reading one huge series which never ends and I hope it never does! Yes, I’m in love with this author.

Her books are full of suspense, danger and passion. This one is no different. Coupled with the darling of narrators, Brad Wills, I weep with pure delight in the listen. Narrator Wills’s various voices for the young, old, whether woman, man or child’s, he will take you into the most wonderful world of all – the Le Veque novels. A narrator, seriously, can make or break even a good read. He’ll take a wonderful story and power it up ten-fold. Did I say how much I enjoy this narrator?

We all know the power of these huge knights of old. Bretton de Llion has the right to be embittered, seeking revenge. What Jax De Velt did all those years ago haunts many a knight’s mind. I read Dark Lord whose main character is a man who reigns with a vicious fist. Then love happened and Jax changed. We all know love changes people. He no longer picks up his sword and for 25 years he’s lived quietly and private with his family.

Even though Jax De Velt is good at killing everyone when he takes a castle, apparently, he misses a few and this particular case, a five-year-old boy who loses his parents. In consequence, he led a disgustingly ugly life and blames all that happened in his youth on Jax De Velt. He has layed his plans well. He will make Jax De Velt wish he were never born. He seeks revenge with a vengeance.
Bretton de Llion grows into a mighty warrior, systematically taking back all the castles which De Velt took all those years ago. What is worse, he uses the same methods – running a stake through their bodies, men, women alike, leaving them staked just outside the castle to die an agonizingly painful death. Can we learn to forgive this man? Can Bretton forgive Jax De Velt?

Bretton finds his path to revenge. He captures Allaston, Jax’s daughter, from a nunnery. He puts her into a dank, dark dungeon for close to three weeks. Her health is failing but he needs her alive so he pulls her out. Allaston is a strong woman, not one mean bone in her body. She’s also very wise. Perhaps, destiny chose this woman to heal a lost soul. For surely, Bretton is lost.
Can she reach Bretton’s heart before he kills her father? Does he even have a heart? Can he undo the man he has become?

Emotive, heart-breaking, poignant scenes, reduce me to tears. However, Le Veque never leaves the reader without a happy ever after. I hope you love this story as much as I do. Remember, if you purchase the Kindle book, you have access to the audio for practically free. Take the audio because you cannot miss this story as Narrator Wills tells it. Marvelous! I applaud them both.

A bit long to get to good parts

Entertaining but very long between high parts of the story. Some chapters were very slow to get where they were going. The reader's voice is also a bit off putting.
