About this listen

A red witch in hiding....

Thirteen years fleeing witch hunters and the looming threat of death. Nineteen-year-old Remy knows she is possibly the last red witch alive, and she is determined to stay that way. The Northern Court King has slaughtered her home court and placed a bounty on red witch heads.

When four fae warriors enter her tavern refuge, Remy tries to flee, but her magic isn’t strong enough to stop a fae prince on a mission. The handsome Prince Hale of the Eastern Kingdom wants to stop a war with the Northern Court before his kingdom befalls the same fate as Remy’s. He needs a red witch, and Remy may be the only person alive who can help him. Can she really trust Prince Hale? Can her fallen court be resurrected from the evil clutches of the Northern Court King? For the chance to save herself, her people, and help defeat the Northern King, Remy must put her faith in Hale and his companions on a dangerous quest to find lost relics.

The High Mountain Court is the first book in the thrilling fantasy saga The Five Crowns of Okrith. Expect danger, intrigue, and thrilling passion as Remy journeys to save the kingdom she holds most dear.

Includes bonus stories The Witch of Crimson Arrows and Haastmouth Beach.

I'm struggling to be invested in the story. I can listen to it in the background and feel like I've missed nothing when I tune back in..
I'm not thinking about it during the day or Eger to get back to listening to the story.

it is good but I think I've been listening to so many great stories lately that it's not stacking up.

It's well written and the performance is good..
I might just be in a slump after listening to Forth Wing.

Not bad, not great either..

This book is very very slow to get going but then the story is entertaining. However, it would be better without the foul language and sex

Good story

From chapter 4 all I could think about was Aelin and Terrasen. I feel like the same plot twist is coming.

I don’t understand why all characters have an accent though, I find it quite annoying.

Overall not bad, I look forward to see what happens but, yeah, I feel like I know this story already.

Major Terrasen vibes

The storyline was good and I would usually like this type of book however the biggest draw back was the narrators voice it was annoying and made the story sound childish. Not great in a "spicy" story. I wont be reading book 2 unless its narrated by someone else.

Narration ruined it

The narrator has given all characters a weird Eastern European/ wakandan accent which is very distracting and removes any possibility of the characters having chemistry.

Story is predictable but not boring. Works building feels a little rushed.

Good book to have playing in the background.

It’s fine

The book is good. The story is good.
The narrators ”story-voice” is fine.
The narrators “character-voice” is terrible, annoying and very frustrating to listen to. I will not be listening to book 2.

Annoying accents

Wanted to be into this, but god it was dry. Main characters got together very quickly, predictable romance. Magic system odd - one witch colour has big powers while all another colour can do is can make food taste good? Got 90% way through and couldn’t finish

Zzz basically just sec and looking for things
