Thorn Kissed and Silver Chains

World of Honey and Ice, Book 1

De: Shannon Mayer, Kelly St Clare

Narrado por: Amanda Dolan

Underhill is my ruthless mother. Her realm is my deadly home. The brutal creatures here are both foe and friend.

But the group of fae that just attacked me? They’re all foe. Dragged from my game of hide-and-seek with a dragon and my home of 21 years, I’m thrust into a weak, ugly realm.

Earth.

Something is taking the fae children of the Irish court, and an Oracle has declared I must find them. Nope. Not my problem. Bye. Except a three-year-old girl they suspect is the next Queen of All Fae was taken too. She’s crucial to the success of my mother’s work and the well-being of all, including these simpering fae who’ve forgotten who they are.

Now they have my attention.

The child-snatching darkness flickers in and out of sight, spreading in secret, reaching through cracks and fissures to seize and steal the innocent. Yet I earned each breath in my life by understanding that which seeks to kill me. I will learn the ways of this enemy and find its lair, ideally without the Seelie and Unseelie males who only slow me—even if they’re not quite as stupid as most Earth-dwelling fae.

All I’m sure of is that Underhill is testing me. My mother is testing me in her typical, brutal fashion. And I will not fail.

If you adore Jennifer L. Armentrout, Sarah J. Mass, Holly Black, or Elise Kova, you’ll love this escape into a world of fae where heartaching romance exists and the odds seem impossible.

Entertaining

Love these two authors! Always guaranteed to be introduced to interesting and entertaining new characters and an engaging adventurous storyline. The story is a fast paced with funny stumbling banter (reminded me of Ziva David from the TV series NCIS trying to master the English language with English / American idioms… lol) as they race against time to locate and rescue kidnapped little ones & a future queen. This enemies to something more has some spicy moments <fanning self>! The story ends on a hook, not cliffhanger. The narrator did a great job with providing unique voices for each character and appropriate tone inflections for each scene. I received a free copy of this audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Excellent start to a new series

Wow! This book was wild from start to finish. It hits the ground running, quite literally, and the action never stops.

I loved Silver. The language barrier and misunderstanding of basic nuances was hilarious. I enjoyed watching her grow and change throughout the book.

Even the secondary characters are well written. Orlath is a top notch sidekick and I can’t wait to get more of her back story! Cormac and Aiden are delicious and so very different but both bring something to the story.

I can’t wait to see how Mayer and St. Clare continue this serious. I need more!

Finally excited for a new series!

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book. I loved the characters each and every one. I actually didn’t go to dinner just so I could keep listening. I loved going back to Underhill. If we all could learn how to use less words we would get so much more done. I love the ‘bat”. Can’t wait to learn more about her hopefully in the d next book. Definitely recommend if you like Fae!

Loved this so much

This is such a great story! You are drawn in from the beginning and just can’t stop listening. The narration is well done and helps the story come to life. A great book that will pull you in and make the characters a part of your world.

WTF ! CORMAC***HEART CLENCHING***

Please tell me we see Cormac again !!!!! PLEASE!!!! I will be done with this series if this happens

I felt immediately invested to Silver, Aedan and Cormac…. Just as I had with Allí and LAN… hoping to see more revelations… as I felt like this book moved faster … lots of things left unanswered. Excited for book five… NOT HAPPY ABOUT ONLY OPTION BEING DRAMATIZED VERSION… I prefer unabridged versions and more traditional narration. So I’ll be reading via Kindle.


Narration and continuation of original story is so fluid… amazing fantasy with epic adventure and new Fae creatures that will transport you through the pages.

Bravo 👏👏👏

Kelly and Shannon have done an outstanding job with this new series. It will keep you guessing through out the entire story. I love Sliver and her new side kick Orry. The new romance brewing between Sliver, Cormic, and Aden kept me guessing which one will she choose. Amanda Dolan does a fantastic job bringing the characters to life 👏👏👏. If you are reading this review, don't wait any longer download this audio right now!

Soo good!

This series is so good, I can not get enough! Shannon and Kelly have created such an awesome world in the series! Narration is soo good!!

What a great beginning

This was such a great read. A bit Rocky for me at the beginning, but wow. Loved it.

Great new series!

This book puts us back in the fae world with new characters! These authors keep you wanting more with a heroine who doesn't trust... well anyone. She finds herself pairing up with a golden bat name Orry who is hilarious. Silver learns about the human world and learns to trust. She also finds out who is true to her. I was excited to see the Queen of all Fae make an appearance and of course the foul mouthed land kelpie.
I thought the narration was great and the different characters were easily distinguishable. I could listen to her voice all day. This book was fantastic lyrics done all around!

I was given a free audio book in exchange for an honest review.

Good storyline

Lots of foul language, especially F-Bombs. Story still would've been good with less language in it.
