Summary
It's against the law for elves and humans to fall in love. But laws can be broken.
When Venick is caught wandering the elflands, he knows the penalty is death. Desperate, he lies about his identity in hopes the elves will spare his life.
Ellina doesn't trust the human, and not merely because he speaks the language of men. Men lie. In elvish, however, lying is impossible. In a moment of intuition, Ellina decides to give Venick a chance: learn elvish, reveal his truths, and she will set him free.
That is not, of course, what happens.
As Ellina and Venick come to know each other, their feelings start to shift. Then Venick uncovers a dark secret, and suddenly, the fate of the elflands seems to rest in his hands. But every choice comes with consequences, and Venick must decide if it's worth risking his life to protect a race that hates him, all to save an elf he's not allowed to love.
Magic, love, and fate collide in this fantasy adventure from S. G. Prince.

A enjoyable listen if you like slow builds
This was a free book but none the worse for that. It was an easy listen, the narration was well done, and the plot and lore were well thought out.
Some of the plot was a little obvious if you’ve been around the genre much, and the hero is given to Hamlet-like pondering before doing anything, but that didn’t stop the overall feeling of a well-written book.
Will probably use a credit for part 2 now.

Fantastic
A slow start a good balance between fantasy and the added romance
A good voice smooth and clear add the right amount of excitement and sadness
Hope there is a next novel to continue

Exactly what I needed
A fantastic story that is made even by its excellent narration. The pace of the story is just right and the balance between emotion, romance lore and action have clearly been well thought out.
It's early days yet but so far this is my favourite fantasy book of 2020. Can't wait for book 2!

Gréât story with pace
Well worth it and free, à gréât story, good characters within and not a story based on computer games to ruin it - just a well told elven/ human story of struggle and war and without a gruesome edge 👍

Enjoyable and easy on the ears
I read a lot of these fantasy stories - it eases my day … I enjoy them and have my favs - this included in my subscription- . So I gave it a try - …. Can’t complain , was throughly enjoyable. Not up there with Robert. Jordan or Michael J Sullivan or my absolute favourite David R Slayton . But throughly enjoyable!

Elvish — good ish
I ran out of credits and so trawled the included in your membership section. I downloaded loaded 6 audio books and Elvish was the best. I did not get past chapter three on the others. Elvish I kept my attention to the end. I found the reader’s performance very good. The story had all the key elements I look for in an audio book to be listened to while commuting to work. Hero, dastardly enemies, love interest and double crosses. Yes it’s all here. Being critical this was somewhat slow for me. I’d have preferred 50 less interest on the romance elements and 50 more action.

Elvish
Really enjoyed this audiobook, a slow burner but had a good story and some good characters too.
This was included in my membership for free which is awesome - do I now use a credit for the next book Elder ? I think so.

Great narration but bonkers story
Anyone reading a book about elves already knows how to suspend disbelief, but this story goes waaaaay beyond that. The initial premise (of not being able to lie in Elvish) sounded interesting...but for me there were just too many contradictions and illogical rules to let me lose myself enough in the story to enjoy it. Great narrator, though!

GREAT!
Loved the performance of the voice actor. The story was interestingly written and didn’t follow a traditional fantasy character arc. I enjoyed my whole time, I wondered in the middle where the plot was and what the focus of the story was but I did actually end up powering though a small section in the middle and it was soooo worth it!!!!
