About this listen

He's no fairy tale king.

Levi

Here, little princess. I'm your king.

You have three rules. Bow. Break. Bend the knee.

Fight me all you want, but soon enough, you'll be chanting long live the king.

Astrid

One day I'm Royal Elite School's small fly, the next I'm hunted and left to die.

He doesn't only shred my life to parts, but he's also coming after my heart.

He thinks he broke me, but the new princess will bring the king to his knees.

Cruel King is a complete stand-alone in Royal Elite world. No audiobook should be listened to prior to this.

This was an amazing story of secrets and mysteries. As well as strong friendship bonds. Really enjoyed from first word to last.
Narration was awesome.

I wanted to start at the beginning, so I decided to start with Astrid and Levi's story.

All Astrid wants to do is get through one more year. Unfortunately, she captures the attention of Levi, and her year of being invisible disappears.

Levi's struggle with his feelings for Astrid was great to read. He was definitely JPP when it came to Astrid.

This was a good start to the series, with some twists and turns that kept me guessing... sometimes correctly. I'm looking forward to continuing this series.

I read on Kindle and read along on Audible, and the audio was well done.

Definitely one if my favourite reads for 2025 - the storyline, the character developments - Something totally dangerous about being a King.

So Good!

I found I couldn’t connect to the female character. I’m really disappointed my first Rena Ken book after buying her entire series and I think I’m gonna read it in hardcopy.
