Gild

The Plated Prisoner Series, Book 1

De: Raven Kennedy

Narrado por: Anthony Palmini, Lilly Drake

The fae abandoned this world to us. And the ones with power rule.

Gold. Gold floors, gold walls, gold furniture, gold clothes. In Highbell, in the castle built into the frozen mountains, everything is made of gold. Even me.

King Midas rescued me. Dug me out of the slums and placed me on a pedestal. I'm called his precious. His favored. I'm the woman he Gold-Touched to show everyone that I belong to him. To show how powerful he is. He gave me protection, and I gave him my heart. And even though I don't leave the confines of the palace, I'm safe.

Until war comes to the kingdom and a deal is struck.

Suddenly, my trust is broken. My love is challenged, and I realize that everything I thought I knew about Midas might be wrong. Because these bars I'm kept in, no matter how gilded, are still just a cage.

But the monsters on the other side might make me wish I'd never left.

From bestselling author Raven Kennedy comes the first book in the BookTok hit Plated Prisoner series, perfect for fans of Sarah J Maas and Jennifer L Armentrout. The myth of King Midas is reimagined in this compelling adult fantasy series that is as addictive as it is unexpected. With romance, intrigue, and danger, the gilded world of Orea will grip you from the very first word. Intended for mature listeners.

Newly recorded in duet-style narration by Lilly Drake and Anthony Palmini.

A 5 star read turned 5 star Listen!

To say I was insanely excited to see that the plated prisoner series was being re-recorded by Podium would be an understatement. I was not at all disappointed! This series was already a favorite of mine and the Narrators did a FANTASTIC job bringing it to life!

LOVE THE AUTHOR! Love this series!!

Nothing it’s perfect! My favorite book series. Can’t wait to read the rest of the audiobooks for this series

The story line

I couldn’t peek I’m eyes off the book when I read it but to listen to it was a whole nother experience!! 10/10

I didn’t know I needed a King Midas retelling with far

What a whirlwind of emotions I’m so excited to see Auren’s character growth in this series.

I loved the dialogue

The voice actors did amazing can’t wait for the rest of the series. Would definitely recommend

What is she?

All though first boo in the series is usually boring a push though to get to the best part this first book is unique it hooks you and keeps your interest.

Not a bad start for the series

I know this is a rather long series so this being the first book is good! It takes time to build characters and worlds and I’ve been told it gets much better so I’m excited to see where it all goes!

*NEEDS TRIGGER WARNING**

Could have definitely done without the r*pe scene or at least had a trigger warning for us who need it. Otherwise I enjoyed the book but definitely had a very slow start. Only started to get good towards the end.

no way they did that to my baby

i want to cry over sail, will never recover over that. and lowkey was eating it up at the end.

Enjoyed the story - will buy book 2

Overall the book is entertaining enough to move into book 2. I feel like some of the material was unnecessary to the story line - like the disturbing parts with the pirates. It was superfluous and did not make the story line better, in my opinion. As others mentioned, it’s a bit slow in the beginning but picks up at the end. I’m interested enough to see what happens next. Narrators did a great job.
