Slaying the Shadow Prince

De: Helen Scheuerer

Narrado por: Islay Jacobs, Chase T. Walker

In a realm on the brink of destruction, evil forces snatch innocents to suffer fates worse than death. Only a monster hunter and her monstrous enemy can stop them.

Drue Emmerson, noblewoman-turned-ranger, wants one thing: vengeance. With her family slain by the vicious shadow wraiths, she’s determined to defend her fallen kingdom. And that means carving out the hearts of every dark creature she can find.

Talemir Starling, celebrated warrior of the realms, has a dangerous secret: he's a half-wraith, kin to the creatures wreaking devastation on the world. He’ll do anything to keep his true nature under control…especially around the woman who’s vowed to destroy him.

When someone Drue cares about disappears, all signs point to Talemir’s kind. But he’s determined to prove he’s no monster and to seek answers of his own. Begrudgingly, the pair must join forces to uncover the deadly truth.

But in a world of chaos and carnage, where danger lurks at every turn, deadlier still is their attraction to one another—the one thing that might just spell the end of them both. Will Talemir win Drue’s heart? Or will she carve his out before the end?

Slaying the Shadow Prince is a standalone instalment of the heart-pounding fantasy-romance series Mortal Enemies to Monster Lovers. If you like fiery heroines and tortured heroes, as well as forced proximity, found family, and touch-her-and-you-die vibes, you will devour this sexy, addictive fantasy romance.

Yes!

This is a fantastic book! I am not sure if it can be classified as a novella but it is a prequel to the “Legends of Thezzmarr” series. I read the first three books than this one and the fourth just came out. I listened to all on here and i definitely recommend the audiobooks. All the narrators are absolutely fantastic! I know some people were the biggest fan of the female narrator in this but I loved her voice as well as the males. The story is beautiful, it does get steamy! I honestly enjoyed reading it after I already started the series I enjoy the emotional journey and learning backstories and having details filled in that I had previously wondered about.
10/10 recommend <3

A good start to the series

I liked the story, overall, but it became clear towards the end that this was just a glimpse into a much bigger world. Would have liked to know/see that a bit more here. Clearly, there a bigger fight with other characters to come.

Shadow Daddy

I fell in love with Druze and Talemir’s story. Such a SHADOW DADDY 🦇😍❤️ but this beautiful story between them is something out of a fairytale. 10/10 Definitely recommend!

Excellent book

Excellent book. I loved the characters and the story. I think the female narrator read a little slow but you can always speed up the narration.

Great standalone story

Fast pace enemies to lovers Romantasy. Good story, fun adventure and an easy quick read and great performances by the voice actors.

Prince of hearts

Talemire has stolen my heart! I love this book! I feel connected to the characters!

Great for your legends of Thezmarr hangover

I finished Legends of Thezmarr and was just moping around so sad and then I remembered this sort of prequel (?) existed and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I honestly don’t know if I would have enjoyed it AS much had I not been invested in the world and characters already, but it’s hot and original in terms of storyline, which is always hard to find. If you’re considering, go for it!

The perfect amount of everything you need for a romantasy.

I went into this series blind and I'll say, it is amazing. It is a perfect blend of all the things that make a good romantasy. I couldn't put these down. They fed my soul in a way only a few books have.

The slow burn

It was okay. I wish there was more romance. The enemies to rival’s was as expected.

Great story, a delightful spicy read

listened to this in less than a day. I liked the plot and world building. also love me a good shadow daddy. good spice 👌
