Summary

After the Seelie king Torin nearly froze me to death, I plunged through a portal into my true home. Turns out, my hometown is a wild Unseelie kingdom known as the Court of Sorrows. When Torin follows me and sees my new horns, he quickly realizes that his intended bride is an enemy of his realm. In fact, his name for my kind is "demon."

But even if I have the horns of an Unseelie, I'm not welcome here, either. Queen Mab and her monstrous soldiers are delighted to torment us, accusing me of being a traitor. If we want to get out of the Court of Sorrows with our lives, the only hope we have is to stay as close to each other as possible—even if it means fleeing on horseback and sharing a bed. Every moment is bittersweet since it could be our last—and Torin is condemned to kill anyone he loves.

A good book series

Ambrosia is brilliant! I couldn’t put this read down. The story wraps up really nicely. I think the narrator was a fab choice and brought the characters to life.

Enjoyable series

I actually enjoyed this series. I mistakenly read some reviews before hand which weren’t very good but decided to give it a go. I did see some of the storyline and plot twists coming but I still found it to be an engaging story and it kept me interested to the very end. The only criticism I have if that all are performed by Amanda rather than having a male narrator for Torin which I think would be better.

A satisfactory conclusion, but lacks punch

This was a satisfying conclusion to the story, but felt a little lackluster. I had to listen to the ending several times as I kept losing focus. It's suitably epic but for some reason I don't care as much as I should. I think this is typical of CN Crawford's work - it's solid, enjoyable but never quite makes it to my favourites.

Decent book, weird narration

The plot was decent but the pace felt off, especially a rushed sort of conclusion followed by what felt like 3 spaced out epilogues. The narrator’s accents were a nightmare, especially Moria’s - once I figured out she sounded like Moira Rose I couldn’t take her seriously.

Oh it all got. Revealed

I really enjoyed this conclusion. The story telling fantastic for both POVs. I was sceptic but Amanda done a great job of Torins voice... Also bonus with shinlinhis pov

That was spectacular!

I loved that it was only a two book series. The characters and story were fantastic. It's definitely a recommended series.

Not as good as book 1

I really liked the first book, but the ending made it feel more like half of one book, and this one really disappointed me. It was ~80% torture and the main characters suffering, 10% big battles, and the last 10%... I can summarize with this quote from the end of the book; "The past is the past, and we are here to have fun." And THAT'S the ending of the book where they just get tortured for a reeeeaaalllyyy long time??? Also, spoiler:












(apparently, they were only tortured out of loooooove <3 )

Just As Good As Book 1

A great continuation to the series! Loved it just as much, if not more than the first.

Pacing not as good as book 1, but still a fun read

The first book was paced better and felt cleaner, but I still had fun reading Ambrosia. Only a few hours to complete at my preferred speed, so my qualms are no big deal. I heard that print versions don't have the final Ava epilogue, so I'm glad the audiobook does because the ending would have been disappointing without it. Ava's family and the courts intertwining could be explored more.
Spice 2/5, Chemistry 4/5

Enjoyed.

This series only got better. I really enjoyed the fun banter between the characters. This story shows there is more than one way to love someone. The HEA is perfect.

Villain sounds like Moira from Schitts Creek

The villain voice and cadence was mad annoying but after comparing her to MoirA from Schitts Creek, I got through it easier.

The speed of this book was weird to me.

Nice short series

I loved getting lost in these books and that they were completable with just the two books.
I also enjoyed that each character had their own clear voice.

Ava is a little slow

Good series so far, but Ava got a little annoying with her naive ness and not trying her magic. Would still like another book.
