Acerca de esta escucha
Magic, adventure, mystery, and romance combine in this epic debut in which a young princess must reclaim her dead mother’s throne, learn to be a ruler - and defeat the Red Queen, a powerful and malevolent sorceress determined to destroy her.
On her 19th birthday, Princess Kelsea Raleigh Glynn, raised in exile, sets out on a perilous journey back to the castle of her birth to ascend her rightful throne. Plain and serious, a girl who loves books and learning, Kelsea bears little resemblance to her mother, the vain and frivolous Queen Elyssa. But though she may be inexperienced and sheltered, Kelsea is not defenseless: Around her neck hangs the Tearling sapphire, a jewel of immense magical power; and accompanying her is the Queen’s Guard, a cadre of brave knights led by the enigmatic and dedicated Lazarus. Kelsea will need them all to survive a cabal of enemies who will use every weapon - from crimson-caped assassins to the darkest blood magic - to prevent her from wearing the crown.
Despite her royal blood, Kelsea feels like nothing so much as an insecure girl, a child called upon to lead a people and a kingdom about which she knows almost nothing. But what she discovers in the capital will change everything, confronting her with horrors she never imagined. An act of singular daring will throw Kelsea’s kingdom into tumult, unleashing the vengeance of the tyrannical ruler of neighboring Mortmesne: the Red Queen, a sorceress possessed of the darkest magic. Now Kelsea will begin to discover whom among the servants, aristocracy, and her own guard she can trust.
But the quest to save her kingdom and meet her destiny has only just begun - a wondrous journey of self-discovery and a trial by fire that will make her a legend...if she can survive.

Historia
The Tearling, founded as a utopia, has collapsed and reverted to feudalism. As the gap between rich and poor widens and famine threatens the land, rumors of a prophecy begin to spread: a great hope, a True Queen who will ascend and save the kingdom. But rumors will not help Lazarus, a boy on the verge of manhood, trapped in the clandestine underworld known as the Creche. Enlisted from his earliest days to kill without mercy, he has never seen sun or sky, not until a quest for vengeance propels him above ground.

Historia
Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them. With fewer dragons willing to bond than cadets, most would kill Violet to better their own chances of success.

Historia
Generations of twin goddesses have long ruled Aeon - until one sister’s betrayal split their world in two. A Great Abyss now divides two realms: one cloaked in eternal night, the other scorched beneath an ever-burning sun. While one sister rules the frozen fortress of Aranth, her twin rules the sand-locked Golden City - each with a daughter by their side. Now those young goddesses must set out on separate, equally dangerous journeys in hopes of healing their broken world. No matter the sacrifice it demands.

Theodosia was six when her country was invaded and her mother, the Fire Queen, was murdered before her eyes. On that day, the Kaiser took Theodosia's family, her land, and her name. Theo was crowned Ash Princess - a title of shame to bear in her new life as a prisoner. For 10 years, Theo has been a captive in her own palace. She's endured the relentless abuse and ridicule of the Kaiser and his court. She is powerless, surviving in her new world only by burying the girl she was deep inside.

Two years ago, Louise le Blanc fled her coven and took shelter in the city of Cesarine, forsaking all magic and living off whatever she could steal. There, witches like Lou are hunted. They are feared. And they are burned. As a huntsman of the Church, Reid Diggory has lived his life by one principle: Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live. But when Lou pulls a wicked stunt, the two are forced into an impossible situation - marriage. Lou, unable to ignore her growing feelings, yet powerless to change what she is, must make a choice. And love makes fools of us all.

A Great Winged One will soon arise and cast his fearsome shadow upon the land. And just as Night slays Day, and Day slays Night, so also shall another Black Witch rise to meet him, her powers vast beyond imagining. So foretells the greatest prophecy of the Gardnerian mages. Carnissa Gardner, the last prophesied Black Witch, drove back the enemy forces and saved her people during the Realm War. Now a new evil is on the horizon, and her granddaughter, Elloren, is believed to be Carnissa's heir—but utterly devoid of power in a society that prizes magical ability above nearly all else.

Where her ancestors’ blood and magic have flowed through generations - and where her destiny awaits. Iona arrives in Ireland with nothing but her Nan’s directions, an unfailingly optimistic attitude, and an innate talent with horses.

On a continent ruled by three empires, some are born with a "witchery", a magical skill that sets them apart from others. In the Witchlands, there are almost as many types of magic as there are ways to get in trouble - as two desperate young women know all too well. Safiya is a Truthwitch, able to discern truth from lie. It's a powerful magic that many would kill to have on their side, especially among the nobility to which Safi was born. So Safi must keep her gift hidden, lest she be used as a pawn in the struggle between empires.

Karigan G’ladheon, running away from school, is traveling through a deep forest when a galloping horse pounds up to her, its rider impaled by two black-shafted arrows. With his dying breath, he tells her he is a Green Rider, one of the magical messengers of the King. Before he dies, he makes Karigan swear to deliver the message he’s carrying, and gives her his green coat, with the symbolic brooch of his office.

Historia
Before borders were drawn, before treaties were signed, before wars were waged anew, before the great kingdoms of the Remnant were even born and the world of old was only a hazy slate of memory told in story and legend, a girl and her family fought to survive. And that girl’s name was Morrighan. Discover the origin story of the Remnant universe, penned by the New York Times-bestselling master storyteller Mary E. Pearson, in this swoon-worthy prequel, a romance for the ages, and a magic that stirs the heart.

Historia
English magicians were once the wonder of the known world, with fairy servants at their beck and call; they could command winds, mountains, and woods. But by the early 1800s they have long since lost the ability to perform magic. They can only write long, dull papers about it, while fairy servants are nothing but a fading memory.

Any additional comments?
To begin, I actually like the storyline and the performance. I am not usually positive with female readers doing male/female voices....actually, I am not usually positive with male readers doing the same, but less so...probably because there are usually less female characters than male characters...hmm, I wonder, sounds like a thesis for someone.Ms/Mrs. Kellgren did an excellent job and added to the overall impact of the story. However, I had a lot of issues with depth and foundation of the main character and those around her. I have been unable to find the words to pin this down. Generically, its logic breaks. One example, the queens guard get drunk every night, knowing that they are being followed and targeted for death. They are followed for weeks before actually reaching the cabin, yet it is only after a hawk gets "too close" that they decide to split up. Yet, the hawk is at the max range of vision...so, how did they see them before? It all feels very contrived. This weakness gets hidden in some excellent inner monologue sequences, but you still feel the needling at the back of your neck. There are more logic breaks and 3/4 of the way through the book you are just skipping ahead to get the darn thing done.
In general, its written better than many books I have given 3 stars to before, but its just so frustrating, that I couldn't give it 4.
Found myself skipping ahead

Would you consider the audio edition of The Queen of the Tearling to be better than the print version?
I haven't read the print version, but I wasn't a big fan of the narrator, so I think I would enjoy the print version more.Who was your favorite character and why?
Kelsea, because she reminds me a lot of myself and I felt like I could relate to her.Would you listen to another book narrated by Katherine Kellgren?
No, probably not.Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
At times, yes. The beginning was a bit slow, but once they arrived at the Keep, it became a lot more fun.Great subtle fantasy

What made the experience of listening to The Queen of the Tearling the most enjoyable?
The plotline.Who was your favorite character and why?
Kelseigh - a strong female protagonist. Who could ask for more.What does Katherine Kellgren bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
At first I wasn't sure about her style but within one chapter she had swept me away.If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Mystery, adventure and danger combine to bring the true queen to the throne.Any additional comments?
Echoes of The Graceling in this one! I loved this book. In true high fantasy style, it had everything I look for in a novel: a strong heroine, mystery, magic, history, and adventure.Some people who look for romance or light moments, may be put off. This is a serious book. And in its seriousness it hold an abundance of truth. If you like Game of Thrones, you will like this one. It exposes the dark underbelly of humanity in some truly horrific ways.
I finished this book satisfied but also craving more. You can bet I'll be checking out the rest of the books in this series soon!
Great book!

If you could sum up The Queen of the Tearling in three words, what would they be?
Read the entire series - The story had lots of twists and turns and it never seemed to take the easy way out. The story is complex, but easy enough to keep up. I found the issues to be surprisingly relevant to the political landscape we are facing today. It is entertainment, but the story also encourages reflection about governance and personal responsibility. I thought that the characters got away from the narrator sometimes and it was a little distracting, but overall it did not detract from a great story. Maybe not a classic, but a darn good read.Impressive, entertaining and thought provoking
