About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Did they break the curse or begin one? Sleeping Beauty's dark sorceress reclaims her story in this sequel to Malice.

The Dark Grace is dead.

Feared and despised for the sinister power in her veins, Alyce has spent 100 years wreaking her revenge on the kingdom that made her an outcast. Once a realm of decadence and beauty, Briar is now wholly Alyce's wicked domain. No one escapes the consequences of her wrath.

Not even the one person who holds her heart.

Princess Aurora saw through Alyce's thorny facade, earning a love that promised the dawn of a new age. But that love came with a heavy price: Aurora now sleeps under a curse that even Alyce's vast power cannot seem to break, and their dream of the world they would have built together is nothing but ash.

Alyce vows to do anything to wake the woman she loves, even if it means descending into the monster Briar believed her to be. But could Aurora ever love the villain Alyce has become?

Or is true love only for fairy tales?

I loved both books in this series and I devoured them.
The world creation has me wanting to see the other realms and learn more about all the different beings. I really hope there are more books from this universe to come, as it feels as though there is so much more to know!
I love the alternative perspective on the classic story and it all fit together beautifully. Heather Walter, please write more!
The Narration was smooth and an easy listen. Ann Marie Gideon had the perfect velvet voice for the main character and it was easy to tell when she switched between characters, without any of the voices feeling out of sync with the story.

Addictive story and beautifully voiced.

The 2nd book not for me. Dark, tortured, murder, full of misery, cruelty and war campaigns. I cldnt keep going, I skipped straight to the last 2 chapters with relief. This book was an ordeal. The first book was beautiful and I loved it..this was so different. It has actually tainted the first book for me.

dissatisfied/ misery
