Summary

A missing king, a missing princess, and a missing dragon

The world of Umbra Mundus is in shambles. Magick is quickly fading and the clock is ticking. A battle between dark and light is quickly approaching, and the lost princess is their only hope.

When eighteen-year-old Alys begins to suffer a string of unfortunate events after her birthday, she soon discovers the mysterious man watching her from afar is responsible for it all. Her seemingly normal life soon makes a dramatic change, suddenly finding herself in a terrifying yet fantastical world. Lovers turn to enemies, foes disguised as friends, and hidden secrets lurk behind every corner. After discovering her true identity, she is forced into a position never asked for, the fate of the entire realm now in her hands.

The Chosen is a darker fantasy with a contemp twist, full of mythical creatures, magick, romance, and heartbreak.

I love this book, it’s great: my review from Goodreads follows: Firstly, what a good book. Kept you engaged, was exciting, not predictable.
The ending left on a cliffhanger which draws you in for the next book.

If reading isn’t your thing or you love to read/listen the audiobook is pretty good too!

The audiobook section itself, the narrator doing Alys’s voice was a bit weird and founded echo I’m not sure if that was the style meant for, but it wasn’t the entire book thankfully but I personally did not enjoy that.

A very captivating listen!
