About this listen

A must-read title for all fans of Patrick Rothfuss and Trudi Canavan, Fire is an exceptional fantasy novel. From the deft characterisation to the gripping story, the fast-paced action to the evocative prose, this is one of the strongest fantasy novels of the year.

Set in a world of stunningly beautiful, exceptionally dangerous monsters, Fire is one of the most dangerous monsters of all - a human one. Marked out by her vivid red hair, she's more than attractive. Fire is mesmerising.

But with this extraordinary beauty comes influence and power. People who are susceptible to her appeal will do anything for her attention, and for her affection. They will turn away from their families, their work, and their duties for her. They will forget their responsibilities to please her and worse, crush nations, neglect kingdoms and abuse their power.

Aware of her power, and afraid of it, Fire lives in a corner of the world away from people, and away from temptation. Until the day comes when she is needed - a day when, for her king, she has to take a stand not only against his enemies, but also against herself.

from the start, each character is enthralling and full. I found it impossible to not become completely invested in their possible outcomes

lost me for a little bit towards the end. Main character got uncharacteristicly weak and needed to be saved by a man :(

Mainly a good listen

Loved it and was n the edge of my seat BUT I felt like there were some rushed bits particularly with the Fire and Brigan storyline. We waited and waited for it and there was a bit of an anti-climax? Even the long-drawn-out war was suddenly wrapped up. Just wish we could stick to the same pace throughout.

Fantastic but some rushed bits
