Crown of One Hundred Kings

Nine Kingdoms Trilogy, Book 1

By: Rachel Higginson

Narrated by: Devon Sorvari

A lost princess....

Tessana Allisand had a family once. A home. A title. A future. Until one night when everything she loved was taken from her. Secreted away to an isolated monastery in the farthest region of the realm, Tess was raised in the silence of monks and the loneliness of tragedy. And there she would have stayed if the dark magic that killed her family hadn't finally found her.

An impossible quest....

With her identity discovered, Tessana must face the home she fled all those years ago. The Crown of Nine must return to its rightful place and Tess must be the one to carry it across the nine kingdoms. And when she arrives? She'll need to convince a dying kingdom that the crown that has belonged to one hundred kings should be given to a queen.

A rebellious prince....

Taelon Treskinat was in love once. With a princess. The daughter of a slaughtered king. He risked everything to save her, to make sure she survived. When that same princess tumbles back into his life no longer the scared little girl he remembers from childhood, he must decide where his duty lies. With the girl that will threaten everything he knows and loves. Or the kingdom he will do anything to protect.

Tried

Tried three times. The singsong narration is killing me. I can’t. The story might be okay , but I’m not will to recommend this performance of it.

Magic and Kindoms

I like the progression of the story. It builds up to each new revelation, then hits you with something unsuspected. The way magic is woven through the story, sometimes just beneath the surface so you're not sure if it's there or not. It has magic, war, deceit, and some romance.

Great story rough performance

This is a great story. But it took a while to get past the narration. It was either monotone or the emphasis felt wrong. Not a great listen

Great Fantasy

I enjoyed this book very much. Everything an easy-read, enjoyable, romantic, interesting Fantasy should be. Magical lands, a long forgotten Princess, a Handsome, but Rogueish Prince, lot's of deception, lies and intrigue and as always, the quest with and end goal with peace for a Kingdom at war.

Only one narrator. The storyline was very simplistic. Not what I was expecting. And not in a good way .

I don’t recommend this to anyone. The fact that one person narrates it is horrible . The plot is lacking . Maybe if the narrator wasn’t so bad the book would be better . I don’t know .
