![]() ![]() ![]() The narrators are enjoyable to listen to, and I think listening to these two books just adds something extra to the story. It took me forever to get into the first one reading it in physical form, but the audiobook changed that. ![]() I listened to this on Audible, and I highly recommend both Carve the Mark and The Fates Divide as audiobooks. Like with most of my reviews, the first part will be spoiler free, followed by a spoiler section. In a stunning twist, the two will discover how fate defines their lives in ways most unexpected. For Cyra, that could mean taking the life of the man who may-or may not-be her father. And when Cyra’s father, Lazmet Noavek-a soulless tyrant, thought to be dead-reclaims the Shotet throne, Akos believes his end is closer than ever.Īs Lazmet ignites a barbaric war, Cyra and Akos are desperate to stop him at any cost. ![]() The fates, once determined, are inescapable.Īkos is in love with Cyra, in spite of his fate: He will die in service to Cyra’s family. The lives of Cyra Noavek and Akos Kereseth are ruled by their fates, spoken by the oracles at their births. Title: The Fates Divide (Carve the Mark, #2)įate brought them together. ![]()

Their skin flake off and their limbs are so much vividly reminiscent of open sores that one can’t help but pause to scrutinize their suffering, with painstaking attention, even with a hint of dark pleasure, unsure as to whether heal them or let them agonize slowly. They might bear an air of familiarity and déjà-vu at first sight, yet they reveal their real haunting nature at a closer inspection. Vacillating between life and death, his macabre, liminal creations exist as remnants of an act of violence, of so to speak Erostratism, namely, the morbid drive to prolong oneself in time and become immortal through outrageous and irreversible acts. ![]() ![]() ![]() When the stubborn and competitive Hyacinth Bridgerton meets Gareth St. Quinn’s most popular series, the eight Bridgerton books are set between 18 and follow the eight children of the late Viscount Bridgerton as they navigate love, marriage, and the societal pressures–and drama–of English nobility.

Rowling's spellbinding series is not for the faint of heart-such revelations, battles, and betrayals await in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows that no fan will make it to the end unscathed.
