About this listen
Sarah J. Maas's CRESCENT CITY series begins with House of Earth and Blood: the story of half-Fae and half-human Bryce Quinlan as she seeks revenge in a contemporary fantasy world of magic, danger, and searing romance.
Bryce Quinlan had the perfect life-working hard all day and partying all night-until a demon murdered her closest friends, leaving her bereft, wounded, and alone. When the accused is behind bars but the crimes start up again, Bryce finds herself at the heart of the investigation. She'll do whatever it takes to avenge their deaths.
Hunt Athalar is a notorious Fallen angel, now enslaved to the Archangels he once attempted to overthrow. His brutal skills and incredible strength have been set to one purpose-to assassinate his boss's enemies, no questions asked. But with a demon wreaking havoc in the city, he's offered an irresistible deal: help Bryce find the murderer, and his freedom will be within reach.
As Bryce and Hunt dig deep into Crescent City's underbelly, they discover a dark power that threatens everything and everyone they hold dear, and they find, in each other, a blazing passion-one that could set them both free, if they'd only let it.
With unforgettable characters, sizzling romance, and captivating suspense, this richly inventive new dramatized audiobook fantasy series by #1 New York Times bestselling author Sarah J. Maas delves into the heartache of loss, the price of freedom-and the power of love.
Adapted from the novel and produced with a full cast of actors, immersive sound effects and cinematic music!
Performed by Colleen Delany, Kit Swann, Danny Montooth, Nick J. Russo, Torian Brackett, Gail Shalan, Stephanie Németh-Parker, Gabriel Michael, Robb Moreira, Debi Tinsley, Lise Bruneau, Holly Adams, Daniel Llaca, Joel David Santner, Nhea Durousseau, Khaya Fraites, Michael John Casey, Henry W.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 41
When nineteen-year-old huntress Feyre kills a wolf in the woods, a terrifying creature arrives to demand retribution. Dragged to a treacherous magical land she knows about only from legends, Feyre discovers that her captor is not truly a beast, but one of the lethal, immortal faeries who once ruled her world. At least, he’s not a beast all the time.

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.

Twenty-four-year-old Saeris Fane is good at keeping secrets. No one knows about the strange powers she possesses or the fact that she has been picking pockets and stealing from the Undying Queen's reservoirs for as long as she can remember. But a secret is like a knot. Sooner or later, it is bound to come undone. When Saeris comes face-to-face with Death himself, she inadvertently reopens a gateway between realms and is transported to a land of ice and snow. The Fae have always been the stuff of myth, of legend, of nightmares… but it turns out they're real.

I think SJM followers are used to something more traditional (fantasy world wise) and fast paced. It's not like her usual style and, I actually prefer it (so far). But yes if you're expecting the same thing you'll be disappointed.
I read a lot of reviews so watched this expecting the worst but I love that there is so many different fantasy creatures in the book and that character development wasn't rushed. I felt immersed in the world and like I know the characters.
I also find these two the best main romantic couple out of all SJMs stories. I preferred Rowan and Aelin on their own and, F+R were alright but...a lot of it didnt mesh well for me.
These two are slow burns that actually take time and it makes sense how it develops. They kind of compliment each other and it evolves naturally. The main FMC and MMC isn't actually my favourite SJM leads but as a couple -chefs kiss. So far I thinks it's worth it and excited that I get to be immersed through this for hours of entertainment. Hoping the second half is even better!
Bonus- so far I haven't had to deal with any talk of "mates" which is refreshing 😂
Underrated

AMAZING❣️❣️❣️

The story itself is pretty entertaining, the mystery/investigation and development between the 2 main characters really drew me in. Though I haven't read a heap of romance-fantasy, I would easily put this at the top of what I have read.
Highly Recommend
