The Daughters of God

Etherium, Book 1

By: Phoenix Clarke

Narrated by: Simon Garbutt

Ancercy is the fatal disease spread to mankind when they sleep with daemons.

While the south of an otherwise unremarkable kingdom becomes embroiled in an epidemic of this foul affliction, and those within seek the desperate cure, there are those without who are working to hasten the spread of ancercy.

And with the mayor’s son starting to be turned away from parlour doors, even the queen has taken time from her daughter’s baptism to attend to the matter; a baptism through which the future of this very kingdom will be told in smoke and water.

A future at whim to the designs of witchers and the commands of clergy — a kingdom of ambitious men. But not one made without the decisions of three women in particular: the magister, the whore and the princess... the daughters of God.

Interesting Story, Nicely Done

Overall Story a compelling listen—I'd give it a 3.75 out of 5. Narration 5 out of 5.

Daughters of God has a really unique premise and does a solid job blending dark fantasy with supernatural elements and a crumbling society vibe. The writing is strong. The narration is well done, and fits the tone well. It held my interest.

Love it

Great book. Very well done and easy to follow. Love the fantasy and adventure feeling. Definitely recommend this book.

Dark fantasy

The Daughters of God by Phoenix Clarke is a great dark paranormal fantasy. Simon Garbutt did an incredible job with the narration. The story is interesting, action packed and more. There is something missing I just couldn’t figure it out. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
