About this listen

This is a world divided by blood--red or silver.

The Reds are commoners, ruled by a Silver elite in possession of godlike superpowers. And to Mare Barrow, a 17-year-old Red girl from the poverty-stricken Stilts, it seems like nothing will ever change.

That is until she finds herself working in the Silver Palace. Here, surrounded by the people she hates the most, Mare discovers that despite her red blood, she possesses a deadly power of her own. One that threatens to destroy the balance of power.

Fearful of Mare's potential, the Silvers hide her in plain view, declaring her a long-lost Silver princess, now engaged to a Silver prince. Despite knowing that one misstep would mean her death, Mare works silently to help the Red Guard, a militant resistance group, and bring down the Silver regime.

But this is a world of betrayal and lies, and Mare has entered a dangerous dance--Reds against Silvers, prince against prince, and Mare against her own heart...

The story was okay, not the best nor the worst I've ever read. It was eh. Romance seemed forced, rushed and unrealistic. The plot twist near the end kept me hooked enough to finish the book, but I don't think I'll be continuing the series. The narration, however, was very good.

It was eh

The story was fast paced and engaging but the characters were not very smart, particularly the rebell organisation. Some people may enjoy the book but it just didn't do anything for me.

The book was really good, I enjoyed every second of it and I loved how the writer chose to write about a very sensitive topic like equality and show us the importance of respecting others

Amazing book!!!

plot was guessable, storyline lacked maturity, too much romance, hard work to finish story.

It's a captivating book from the beginning. Some great plot twists. But sometimes a little predictable, and corny. Cringe worthy at times but overall the book is well written and the audio side was also great a few laugh worthy accents but overall a great performance

Great book! but ...

I loved it! I work from home and usually listen to YouTube narrations or stick something on Netflix, so this was a great change of pace. The narration was great, and I loved the story!

I've never really been into YA fantasy stories but this one had the right amount of action, mystery, danger and romance! Can't wait to listen to the next book in the series!

Great new series!

Enjoyed the book, hoping the others in the series will mature a bit as the characters can be abit childish sometimes, but I guess they are young so it allows for character growth.

Good

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. There were so many reviews that mentioned it was really only good for younger readers but this was not the case. I am not a younger reader and loved it!. The world building was very good and I was left wondering which male was going to be the main love interest and it keeps you guessing throughout. The ending was certainly a plot twist!

Excellent world building and narration
