À propos de ce contenu audio

It's not until you're broken that you find your sharpest edge.

"I was born for killing – the gods made me to ruin."

At the Convent of Sweet Mercy young girls are raised to be killers. In a few the old bloods show, gifting talents rarely seen since the tribes beached their ships on Abeth. Sweet Mercy hones its novices’ skills to deadly effect: it takes ten years to educate a Red Sister in the ways of blade and fist.

But even the mistresses of sword and shadow don’t truly understand what they have purchased when Nona Grey is brought to their halls as a bloodstained child of eight, falsely accused of murder: guilty of worse.

Commentaires

‘An excellent writer.’ George R.R. Martin

'If you like fresh, take-no-prisoners fantasy, this is for you'
No.1 New York Times bestselling author Rick Riordan

‘Dark, passionate, tense, with a female hero anyone could relate to–I was utterly fascinated! This is no pretty, flowery tale, but one of vastly different people struggling to survive when a hostile government comes to power’ – No.1 New York Times bestselling author Tamora Pierce

‘This is a book very distinct from everything that came before; what it has in common though is a narrative that pulls no punches, and characters that are beautifully, brokenly, repellently, cleverly human’ Sci-Fi and Fantasy Reviews

‘I had never thought it was possible to find a greater character than the Emperor Jorg Ancrath. I had never even slightly considered that there might be a fantasy world out there toppling that of Τhe Final Empire, and most definitely, I had never thought that i could love a book more than The Night Angel. But here we are’ BookNest

‘Any other author is going to have to smack the ball way, way out of the park to top this read’ Parmenion Books

Gripping start to a series full of promise

I think it was because of the monotone voice of the reader, I simply couldn't start to be interested in this. I would press play, listen for half an hour, get drowsy because of the absolute lack of tone of the reader and then press pause. The next day I would try again, listen for half an hour, get drowsy, pause. The day after it would be the same, and the day after it, and the day after it, until the end of the book.

Everyone is different I guess but I've listened to more than a hundred audiobooks in my life and I think the reader's performance -and I would even say acting sometimes- is as important as the quality of the story. And monochord doesn't fit me, I mean it's not horrible here, I've heard worse, but I've heard a lot better.

Couldn't get interested in the story
