About this listen

Sarah J. Maas's CRESCENT CITY series begins with House of Earth and Blood: the story of half-Fae and half-human Bryce Quinlan as she seeks revenge in a contemporary fantasy world of magic, danger, and searing romance.

Bryce Quinlan had the perfect life-working hard all day and partying all night-until a demon murdered her closest friends, leaving her bereft, wounded, and alone. When the accused is behind bars but the crimes start up again, Bryce finds herself at the heart of the investigation. She'll do whatever it takes to avenge their deaths.

Hunt Athalar is a notorious Fallen angel, now enslaved to the Archangels he once attempted to overthrow. His brutal skills and incredible strength have been set to one purpose-to assassinate his boss's enemies, no questions asked. But with a demon wreaking havoc in the city, he's offered an irresistible deal: help Bryce find the murderer, and his freedom will be within reach.

As Bryce and Hunt dig deep into Crescent City's underbelly, they discover a dark power that threatens everything and everyone they hold dear, and they find, in each other, a blazing passion-one that could set them both free, if they'd only let it.

With unforgettable characters, sizzling romance, and captivating suspense, this richly inventive new dramatized audiobook fantasy series by #1 New York Times bestselling author Sarah J. Maas delves into the heartache of loss, the price of freedom-and the power of love.

Adapted from the novel and produced with a full cast of actors, immersive sound effects and cinematic music!

Did I enjoy the story? Yes. Did I enjoy the music in some parts? Yes. But why was it necessary to put music over parts that it wasn't needed. Also why when you have a male narrator available was the female voice doing it. I thought that was the whole point of a dramaticised version, that it was basically a play where the individual characters spoke their parts. I won't be getting a dramaticised version again after this.

What in the elevator music?

Very engaging and great way to get through the more world heavy aspects at the start of the book. Shame it’s a long wait between graphic audio books in the series - will have to purchase the straight narration version for the next books as I can’t wait!

Loved it!

Amazing GA, loved every second. So much more epic than the books! A must listen. The cast did a fabulous job of capturing the essence and spirit of the story.

Incredible

Here from Acotar series. Once I acclimated to the urban setting, I really enjoyed this series. I think I'll just trust that anything Sarah writes, I'll like.

The Urban landscape took me a beat but I loved it.

CC is criminally underrated. I love Bryce so much! The VA’s did such a good job and the dramatic audios made these large books easier to get into. There is a lot of world building and fast action. Amazing book and even better DA!

Love CC and the DA’s!
