City of Thorns

The Demon Queen Trials, Book 1

By: C.N. Crawford

Narrated by: Amanda Leigh Cobb

I never thought I'd be singing happy birthday to myself in a dungeon. And yet when a sinfully sexy demon crashes happy hour, that's exactly what happens. He’s known as the Lord of Chaos, he’s mistaken me for my succubus doppelgänger.

Happy birthday to me.

When he tastes my blood, he finally understands I’m mortal. And I realize we have something in common: We both crave revenge. So we make a deal: I can stay in the forbidden city to hunt for my mom's killer. In return, I’ll help him get the vengeance he craves. I just have to pose as a sexy succubus. One problem - he's my number one suspect.

And that’s increasingly hard to remember as he teaches me my role: seduction. With each heated touch I drift further into peril. And if I fall under his seductive spell, death awaits me.

"I flew through this book.... Hot demon lord - check. Action - check. Romance - check. And there's spice! If you love my books, you definitely want to read this one." (Laura Thalassa)

Soooo worth a credit.

Cannot think of a reason why you shouldn’t listen to this, other than you’ll get hooked and finish both released books to quickly and have to wait for the next!! Soooo good. Nothing quite like this book, I’m obsessed.

Sooo so good

I had severe book withdrawal when I finished all of Sarah J Maas’s series. I am soo happy I found these I love them would definitely recommend!

MUST. READ.

After not seeing many reviews, I wasn’t sure what to think. But I am so glad I got this audiobook. The audio performance was INSANELY good and spot on with the characters and the story was keeping me engaged and needing more from start to finish! I had to listen straight through and I can’t remember the last time I was this excited for the next book. THIS IS A MUST READ.

Good plot, smart

The plot in this book is good. And the heroine is not a simple, ditzy person. She is smart. And there are great witty , humorous dialogue. Sexy book but there is actually only one blown sex scene, and it is short & sweet (I get tired of sex scenes that last a whole chapter!). I also enjoyed the narrator.....was great with different voices.

It was okay

I like the storyline. makes me want to know what's next but wish the main character had more spark.

Absolutely AMAZING!!!

You must listen to this book!! I read it & totally feel in love but then I listened to it, & feel in love even more! Holy cow, I didn’t think that was possible. Amanda Cobb transports you into this story. Her voice is is one of my favorites now! I cannot wait to see/hear what happens next!

Bring on number two!!!

Great listen. There are some dull parts bur that is relative I to each individual person. This book left me on edge for the second book .

Captivating

Love a book with mystery and intrigue with a some major sexual tension? This book hits the mark and the narrator coveys the feelings of the characters so well! Plus her accents are amazing! Could not put it down, even came up with some extra errands to run and chores to do so I could keep listening to the story! Can’t wait for the final book!

Intriguing new series

I really enjoyed the story once they got to the demon city. In the beginning I struggled a bit with Rowan. She seemed to be a tad too crazy for me and I actually stopped reading for a while, the audio is what made me come back to it.

The city of thorns and all the demon leader drama held my interest enough to keep going but once Rowan started looking for clues to her past vs playing Orions game, I really got invested.
I felt like the end started a new story. Once the next part of Rowan’s trail started the book ended and it didn’t feel as much like a cliffhanger as it was just a break. I do hope the next book picks up where book 1 ends and Rowan and Orion can keep up the enemy vs friend dance they had going on towards the end of the book.

I really enjoyed the narration. I felt like the characters were brought to life and easier to connect with thanks to the audio.
I would highly recommend grabbing the audio too.

Holy Cow

This is a quick and easy listen. The writing is wonderful and the narration is beautifully done. Diving into the second book now!
