3.88 AVERAGE


So, the rating is purely because it's exactly what I would want to happen to me if I was in a fantasy world. Like for real, The Raven is ...

I seriously cannot stop giggling while reading this because their relationship is just so perfect.


I love it.

Thank you NetGalley and Dreamscape Select for the ARC of this audiobook for my honest review
 
Such an interesting story, I love the characters. The romance was beautiful. The writing incredible and detailed descriptions so I could imagine I was always in the story and feeling everything as the characters did. I really enjoyed listening to this, and i definitely want to physically read it in the future. I recommend !


This book has one of the best prologues I have read in a long time. I was captivated from second one until the book ended. From the moment the "Raven" was mentioned I was facinated by his character. But I am not only a fan of him but also of the fmc Leisa. She is strong and definetly screams "female impowerment". 
PS. I love you Zander...

I was honestly super impressed with this series. I was a bit confused seeing as how this was previously published as a 6 book series, and this audio version is the first three books. Seems silly that considering each couple gets two books that this one would cut off after the first book in the second couple's journey but it is what it is. I assume that the second audio version will include the last 3 books in the series, thus making it 2 audiobooks for the entire 6 book series. That being said, this was unexpectedly good. Mages, night elves, assassins, political intrigue, shape shifters. I was like, sign me up now!!! I really enjoyed the story and was able to follow along easily. I loved the characters and was interested to know about each one and what might happen next. I will definitely want to continue reading and/or listening to this series to find out what happens. The Raven has my whole heart and soul.

This is listed as romantasy (fantasy/romance) and while that is true, if you are looking for a spicy romance book, this is not the one. This book has romance and kissing but it focuses more on the story/fantasy world. 

I was super excited to get to listen to this ALC and the narrator Vanessa Moyen does a great job!

Thank you to NetGalley and Dreamscape Select | Page Nine Press for access to the ALC in exchange for an honest review and I look forward to reading more from this author in the future!

 
Three main love stories, each with their own duology, make up the Legends of Abreia series. The books each hold a piece of the overarching storyline, where the man currently sitting on the throne of Garimore works to expand his empire through manipulation and by force. Faceless includes books 1-3: The Faceless Mage, The Unseen Heir, and The Hidden Queen. 
 
I was immediately hooked by this one. Are there maybe small things that could have used some finessing? Sure, but I enjoyed getting swept up into the story. 
 
Read this one if you’re a fan of strong heroines, magic, slow burns, and MMCs that still have things they need to figure out. Romantasy fans, please note that the heat level is kissing only. 
 
Vanessa Moyen’s narration kept me engrossed in the story. I enjoyed her voices for both the male and female characters and how she captured the various emotions the characters experience in the story.
