Empress of Fae

Blood of a Fae, Book 3

By: Briar Boleyn

Narrated by: Zara Hampton-Brown, Will M. Watt

"Shattered or whole. Kneeling or standing. I'll get to her, and I won't ever leave. This time, I'll make her understand what we are together. And if anyone dares to hurt her, I'll burn them to the ground without a second thought."

Divided by oceans, but eternally bonded.

Morgan Pendragon has another name now: Morgan Le Fay. As her true heritage slowly emerges from the mists of the past, Morgan renounces one possible future as the new ruler of the fierce Siabra fae and the wife of the Prince of Claws and vanishes through a portal—returning to Camelot and the Rose Court, where her friends and younger brother lie in mortal peril from Arthur's cruel wiles.

But back in the Court of Claws, Kairos Draven won't allow his beloved to disappear from his life so easily. His bond with Morgan goes beyond blood, love, life, and even time itself, and neither one of them can relinquish its power or its pull.

Yet, Morgan is no ordinary woman. Not only is she beginning to manifest remarkable abilities, but the powers of the gods themselves run through her veins, bestowing her with unimaginable power and an unthinkable claim over all of Aercanum and beyond.

A claim that some will stop at nothing to put a halt to.

Empress of Fae is the third installment in an epic dark fantasy romance series that tells the story of Morgan Le Fay, King Arthur's sister. This enemies-to-lovers series is perfect for fans of unique magic systems, magical creatures, and witty banter and is sure to appeal to fans of Jennifer L. Armentrout, Raven Kennedy, Rebecca Yarros, Carissa Broadbent, and Sarah J. Maas. Intended for mature listeners.

Loved the main character after she got her powers!

I had a hard time getting into the first book because I thought it went a little slow. But after a few chapters I really couldn’t quit listening to it. And by the 2nd and 3 rd book I didn’t want it to end. I’m really hoping with it’s ending that there will be a 4th coming soon!

Excellently retelling

I haven’t read many retellings of Excalibur, but this by far was the best yet. I could barely stop listening.

Overall - great read

I’m currently disliking the fact the hard copy is out of book 4 Knight of the Goddess but the Audio isn’t ready until October… very annoying and not professional for those who prefer to listen to books.

Amazing narrators!

Loved listening to this series on audible. Highly recommend if you want a fun brain candy read!

Don't change history

I would have rated this higher if not for Boleyn using the names of characters from The Legend of King Arthur made famous by Geoffrey of Monmouth. I don't understand why Boleyn would take someone else's work and/or ideas and pass them off as her own. Every single time she wrote Merlin or King Arthur or any and all of the other characters of a tale already written, it ruined it for me especially when she changed the character. For example, making Lancelot female??? It would have been a decent story if not for the plagiarism. There are plenty of names out there - why copy another author?

In fact, her King Arthur (as far as I have read) is nothing like the King Arthur written in history. That King Arthur was a warrior, a knight and a king who killed giants, witches and monsters and led a band of heroes on many daring adventures. He is known for his Knights of the Round Table and for uniting the peoples of his land. Even though his end was tragic, he is still known and celebrated all over the world today.

Using these names and not staying true to character ruined the story for me. It is just wrong.

Dnf Morgan is still an insufferable brat by book 3. Giving up on this series.
