First book of a great series
I listened to this on Audible, and really enjoyed it (so much so I'll be buying the hard copy). Fae, magic, humans, adventure, romance and spiciness... A great combination! The narration on Audible is good, and I got sucked into the story very quickly. Highly recommended for anyone into fae and fairy stuff, fantasy, and magic etc.

Too many books, not enough time...
What can I say about Audible that hasn't been mentioned in other reviews? Probably nothing ?

I live near London and unfortunately the commute is hell, reading makes the commute go faster but with train carriages packed like cattle you can't really turn the pages of a book. This is where Audible comes in, you can unobtrusively listen to books that you may be embarrassed to show others that you are reading (eg The Very Hungry Caterpillar)

This isn't the only thing, you also get the options to listen to Audible specific Audio Shows like Frys English Delights and How Not to F**k up your kids, these are free for subscribers and pro ide a nice 30 minute piece of escapism.

Some Kindle Books come whispersync enabled which gives you an Audible copy of the book, sometimes cheaper than buying the audio book individually.

I also have the Audible app on my Fire Stick and with the sleep timer you can easily fall asleep listening to a well narrated piece of work.


Now the cons...
Not all narrators are actually good to listen to, Unfortunately it would take too much time to get more recorded and taking into account their schedules.
Some series are incomplete and it does not look they will be recorded sometime soon (Julian May, Many Coloured Land)
