King of Shadows

Masks of Under Series, Book 2

By: Kathryn Ann Kingsley

Narrated by: Stephanie Bentley

Some call him a madman. Others call him a warlock. Both are true.

But if it wasn't for Aon, I'd be dead. I was mere seconds away from dying by Edu's hands when the King of Shadows appeared in a flash of lightning, saving me from Edu's murderous plans.

Now I'm under his protection, living in his home. The more time I'm forced to spend with him, the more I start to piece together the puzzle of why Aon and Edu are at war. Despite how everyone else seems to hate Aon, there's something that pulls me towards him - like gravity, refusing to let go. My heart is telling me to believe what he says is true, yet there's this prickle of warning in the back of my skull cautioning me against falling for the King of Shadows.

In the world of Under trusting the wrong person can get you killed. Only the strong survive out here, and that's what I intend to do.

Survive.

I love these stories!

I've read the whole series and now am listening to them. I really like the narrator! I was nervous she wouldn't do these stories justice, but she did. I hope she does the whole series.

The first book was a “take it or leave it for me”. But this was really fun.

I love how strong the heroine. It’s not dumb arrogance. Some characters are wrote in a way that just seems forced. Her strength and resilience seem real and I enjoy and crave it. I look forward to the next book.

Even better than Book1

Rarely do I find a world and characters that captivate my imagination like this one. Lydia finally has a chance to feel (relatively) safe and learn a bit about under. Unfortunately, Under isn’t done making things difficult for her. Highly recommend!
