The Ashes and the Star-Cursed King

Crowns of Nyaxia, Book 2

De: Carissa Broadbent

Narrado por: Amanda Leigh Cobb, Aiden Snow

Love is a sacrifice at the altar of power.

In the wake of the Kejari, everything Oraya once thought to be true has been destroyed. A prisoner in her own kingdom, grieving the only family she ever had, and reeling from a gutting betrayal, she no longer even knows the truth of her own blood. She’s left only with one certainty: she cannot trust anyone, least of all Raihn.

The House of Night, too, is surrounded by enemies. Raihn’s own nobles are none too eager to accept a Turned king, especially one who was once a slave. And the House of Blood digs its claws into the kingdom, threatening to tear it apart from the inside.

When Raihn offers Oraya a secret alliance, taking the deal is her only chance at reclaiming her kingdom—and gaining her vengeance against the lover who betrayed her. To do so, she’ll need to harness a devastating ancient power intertwined with her father’s greatest secrets.

With enemies closing in on all sides, nothing is as it seems. As she unravels her past and faces her future, Oraya finds herself forced to choose between the bloody reality of seizing power and the devastating love that could be her downfall.

Full of heartbreak, redemption, bloody intrigue, and heart-pounding action, The Ashes and the Star-Cursed King is the gutting second installment of the Crowns of Nyaxia series and the conclusion of the Nightborn Duet. It is perfect for fans of From Blood and Ash and A Court of Thorns and Roses.

Such a beautifully heartbreaking story

I loved reading this series. It had me invested from the beginning. I thought it was wonderfully written and really engaging. Definitely one of my top favs!

Amazing!!

Story was fantastic! Loved how it went! The world definitely got more fleshed out in this book which is a shame since this book series was only two books.

I loved the female voice actor.

The male voice actor… when he talked for anyone besides the MMC, he had a lovely rich voice. When he talked for the MMC, I got “radio host trying to sell a monster truck” vibe… I’m sure a lot of people liked the gravelly tone, but it was a bit much for me to take seriously.

just loved it

I really loved this. it's just as great as the first book. ❤️‍🔥 💕

Excellent

The book held your interest from the start. The characters are wonderful, such a well written story,

Fantastic New World

I pretty much loved everything except for the dual narration. I preferred the first book with one narrator but it was fine.
I loved the world building and the chemistry. I'm excited for more books in this world.

I need more!

Amazing story! Well done!! I can’t wait more of this story. This author is one of the best authors in my list.

I liked it

I loved the first book and then I did skip a few chapters of this book here and there. There was nothing wrong with them I just wanted the book to be over. Now the story line again it was good. The narrators good. The epilogues. Ugh! I did not care for whatever happened to rhain in the pass I skipped all that. Everything else loved

Great follow up

Not as adrenaline rushing events. But great plot. I even paid for the WAY OVER PRICED NOVELLA

Better than the 1st

This was definitely better than the first book. kept my attention a little better. Story line was good. I enjoyed having the perspective of both characters.

So good! Great story and performance

Love the Crowns of Nyaxia series… story is amazing, plot, world building and character development are excellent. And the performance was incredible - highly recommend listening to this one.
