Kingdom of Faewood

By: Krista Street

Narrated by: Kasi Hollowell

The all-knowing semelees swirled around me in the Veiled Between, crooning and writhing. “You’ve come to us, Daughter of Darkness, Princess of Shadows. Tell us what you seek.”

On the Silten continent, I’m the only fae who can walk the Veiled Between. My rare power is immense and dangerous, so the authorities have entrusted me to my guardian who controls my potent magic with an enchanted device.

To avoid the device’s searing punishment, I submit to a dutiful life. Until one terrifying night everything changes.

I’m taken captive by the ruthless Dark Raider—an outlaw wanted in all four kingdoms, who hides behind a mask, and has a body created for sin.

But the Raider whispers a promise I can’t resist—use my magic to find who he seeks, and he’ll obliterate my chains.

Finally, the freedom I’ve craved is within my reach.

Yet finding who he hunts plunges me into a game of deceit among the kingdoms. After uncovering truths I was never meant to know, I’m caught in a web of betrayal, and if I can’t find a way to break free, I’ll have simply traded one imprisonment for another.

Kingdom of Faewood is book one in Fae of Woodlands & Wild, a fae fantasy romance trilogy that takes place in Krista Street’s Supernatural World. This series contains spicy romance, epic worldbuilding, a female fae who’s determined to wield her own fate, a ruthless Dark Raider who will stop at nothing to protect those he loves, and a mysterious ploy circulating throughout the kingdoms.

Great

The cliff hanger! I’m hooked. I can’t I imagine how this is going to end! The character development was fab!

Great narration!

The story moved quickly and I looked forward to my opportunities to listen. The different voices used for the different characters made it that much better.

Good Start

I enjoy the story and the cliffhanger too but I hope the FMC grows a permanent spine. I understand why she is the way she is but I would like her to stand up for herself and not be so gullible. I am enjoying this ride.

Great story

Krista Street always delivers a good story! This was a great start to the series. The FMC has a bit of Stockholm syndrome, but I can tell she is going to overcome the obstacles she’s dealing with.

Love this world!

This is such an interesting world the author created. I really enjoyed it, and I loved that I didn’t feel lost at all. You can totally read this one as a standalone. It’s definitely a dark read, so make sure to check the CW. There's a captor/captive dynamic and a little bit of Stockholm syndrome for the FMC, but stay with it. She's also naive at first, but it makes sense given how she was raised and what she was exposed to. As the story moves forward, she starts to learn more and really begins to blossom. I actually loved the Dark Raider. I got major Robin Hood vibes from Dark Raider. The narrator, Kasi Hollowell is brilliant with her narration and I was addicted till the very end. Kasi used a variety of tones and inflections for all of the characters. Love her narration skills.
I'm curious to learn more about the magic abilities in this world, and I can't wait to see where the story goes next.

Always love Krista street

I don’t think I’ve yet to dislike a series from her. Was so excited to see this had come out in an audiobook

Dark Raider take my breath away.

What a story! Krista does a fantastic job painting her worlds with her words.

Elowin has a very rare magical power that makes her both sought after and feared. Due to her power’s strength, she has been a captive since she was 5. Because of her amazing power, the Robin Hood of the fea lands, The Dark Raider, abducts her so that she can find someone for him, in exchange for her freedom. However, the collar her guardian put on her at age 5, which subdues her power, might make that promise impossible to deliver.

Great story, great delivery! Ready to listen to and can’t wait for there next book!

How is this not more popular?!

This may be my favorite book of 2025. I flew through it. Kept my attention the whole journey.
