Story
Chosen from birth to usher in a new era, Poppy’s life has never been her own. The life of the Maiden is solitary. Never to be touched. Never to be looked upon. Never to be spoken to. Never to experience pleasure. Waiting for the day of her Ascension, she would rather be with the guards, fighting back the evil that took her family, than preparing to be found worthy by the gods. But the choice has never been hers.

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history.

Story
The Manipulator. I can manipulate the emotions of anyone who lets me. I will make you hurt, make you cry, make you laugh and sigh. But my words don't affect him. Especially not when I plead for him to leave. He's always there, watching and waiting. And I can never look away. Not when I want him to come closer. The Shadow. I didn't mean to fall in love. But now that I have, I can't stay away. I'm mesmerized by her smile, by her eyes, and the way she moves. I'll keep watching and waiting. Until I can make her mine. And once she is, I'll never let her go.

Publisher's Summary
Bow Before Your Queen or Bleed Before Her...
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout comes book three in her Blood and Ash series.
She's been the victim and the survivor...
Poppy never dreamed she would find the love she’s found with Prince Casteel. She wants to revel in her happiness but first they must free his brother and find hers. It’s a dangerous mission and one with far-reaching consequences neither dreamed of. Because Poppy is the Chosen, the Blessed. The true ruler of Atlantia. She carries the blood of the King of Gods within her. By right the crown and the kingdom are hers.
The enemy and the warrior...
Poppy has only ever wanted to control her own life, not the lives of others, but now she must choose to either forsake her birthright or seize the gilded crown and become the Queen of Flesh and Fire. But as the kingdoms’ dark sins and blood-drenched secrets finally unravel, a long-forgotten power rises to pose a genuine threat. And they will stop at nothing to ensure that the crown never sits upon Poppy’s head.
A lover and heartmate...
But the greatest threat to them and to Atlantia is what awaits in the far west, where the Queen of Blood and Ash has her own plans, ones she has waited hundreds of years to carry out. Poppy and Casteel must consider the impossible - travel to the Lands of the Gods and wake the King himself. And as shocking secrets and the harshest betrayals come to light, and enemies emerge to threaten everything Poppy and Casteel have fought for, they will discover just how far they are willing to go for their people - and each other.
And now she will become Queen...
Critic Reviews
"Jennifer L. Armentrout has absolutely blown me away with this entire series! I've turned into a swooning fangirl!"—New York Times bestselling author Larissa Ione
"Completely unputdownable and utterly unforgettable. Armentrout grabs hold of you from the first page of TCOGB with her flawless storytelling, engaging characters and the unforeseen twists and turns."—New York Times bestselling author K. Bromberg
"I didn't know I could be a bigger fan of this series than I already was, but boy was I wrong. Jen Armentrout surprises me at every page turn with higher stakes, hotter heat, shocking revelations, and a knows-no-bounds love that hits me deep, and I am here for it."—New York Times bestselling author Laurelin Paige

So disappointing
This was so bad.
The thought process was all over the place.
Constant repeating of thoughts and feelings! It made it all redundant.
There is so much narrative in action scenes it really interrupts the feel of the story!
I just wanted Poppy’s thoughts to stop!
Drags in so many places then blows up randomly.
This infuriated me to no end.
The constant let’s celebrate the man because he “let’s” the heroine do “what she wants” how low is the bar that you think this bare minimum is a good read?
The constant sexual innuendo from Cas is senseless.
It’s so cheesy I had second hand embarrassment for him all through the book.
He really lost all his credibility in this book.
Won’t be bothering with the next book.
God I’m exhausted.

Left wanting better
I enjoyed book 1 and 2 and was looking forward to the third instalment, however the story is so drawn out and so repetitive, I struggled to make my way through the book, often skipping large chunks. Til I could take it no more.

Ugh
I struggled to finish the first and second book but I did enjoy the story and world building so I pushed through, bringing me to the third however not final book of this dreadful series...
To begin, I honestly can not get over the narration, it's over the top and dramatic and I just do not enjoy it for the most part.
The storyline is fine, if you ignore how many times the protagonist repeat the same information over and over and over AND OVER AGAIN. Literally using one too many word to describe everything, her internal monologue was excessive and had me rolling my eyes on multiple occasions, and that's all within the first half hour of listening!
There are so much about this book/series I just can't be bothered to continue. this particular book was a mere filler for the however many there are to come, no progress and little substance just lot of repetitive information we already know.

Too repetitive
Apart from the last few chapters, I found the book to be repetitive. I found Poppy annoying with herself doubt and constant self talk. Casteel's character was excellent in the first 2 and now have faded into the background. He no longer seem like a strong character, rather "what ever Poppy says" .
Disappointing over all.

Repetitive
Nothing happens for most of the book. Repetition of phrases boring. The ‘I don’t knows’, ‘you lied, she lied, they lied’ begins to feel like lack of planning and last minute plot lines by the author.
Will I listen to the next one? Possibly. The cliffhanger was interesting. But if enough time passes before it’s release, I won’t bother.

Cringe worthy
The narrator was way over the top!
Part 2 of the book is a complete waste of time, the story goes nowhere and is filled with so much crap about how much they love each other and talk of Poppy's lineage goes round and round.
I'm returning the book.

Protagonist annoying
I couldn’t listen to the whole book. The tortured should I or shouldn’t I nature of the protagonist was infuriatingly boring and ruined an otherwise good story

Narrator ruined this for me…
Another great story by JLA, although this story dragged a little at times. But still enjoyable. The narrator and the tones she chose to use were annoying. And the voice she did for Casteel was not manly at all. Did not match up with the character I felt. Will go back to reading the book from now on based off the back of this audio.
