About this listen
Luna has always wanted to be an Earth Guardian, but she knows it's far too late to have been chosen. It's a fool's dream anyway. The reality of battling monsters every few days to protect the human race is somewhat less 'Saturday morning cartoon' and somewhat more 'child soldier war story.' But that allure of magic always called to her... and one day, she's given an offer to have everything she's ever dreamed of.
She promptly says no, because the offer is from one of the most obviously evil women Luna has ever seen in her life. She's pining, not stupid. Get out of here with that blatant monkey's paw crap.
Unfortunately, it turns out obviously evil women don't take to being told 'no' all that well. The next thing Luna knows, she's waking up in a robotic body, unable to speak and bound to follow the whims of the monster she tried to reject. How can she find freedom when her every thought is bound in servitude? Will any of the Earth Guardians she's now being forced to fight realize she's in need of help, or are all of them far too busy with their own problems—including but very much not limited to saving the world?
And if she does get saved... is there any chance she could keep the robot body?
©2025 Natalie Maher (P)2025 Royal Guard Publishing LLCMGMH is a story about freedom, and what that freedom means when taken away. It is also a story about accepting who you truly are, or have become. The characters are terrifyingly well written with all of them making me feel things on multiple occasions. Especially Malpomni. Every time I think she's coming around to not being a detestable person, Luna gets brutalized. This story did a wonderful job at making me conflicted and hopeful at every step of the journey.
Marissa Parness does a fantastic job of voicing all the caste, especially Luna. Somehow managing to maintain character voice intensity whilst conveying clear emotion throughout the entire book. Her work to shift Luna's voice based on her emotional state was so well done I half expected the other characters to figure her out sooner.
In any case. 10/10 book. The cliffhanger gives me alot to look forward to with this series. 'Volume 1' insists on a 'Volume 2'. I look forward to the next audio book.
