She went to take on The Powerful, only to discover secrets about herself she could never fathom. Pellucid Rose accepts the dark and alluring God of Secret’s invitation to come to the Empire of Secrets to help him solve the mystery of how sealed secrets are leaking - a problem that, if not solved quickly, could doom the Empire of Secrets. But the instant she steps from Harpoc’s dark and swirling shadows, beings blanch as they spot the ring she’s worn her entire life; it’s her only connection to parents she’s never known.

She never imagined how right she was....

Summary
Dangerous magic, a dark god, and ancient secrets.
Archaeologist Pellucid Rose discovers the find of the century when an earthquake hits her Mycenae, Greece dig. But before she can claim it, a dark, dangerous, and very sexy stranger steps from a swirl of shadows claiming she’s loosed a sphinx on the world by translating an ancient secret on one of the scrolls.
What’s more, he insists Secret Magic requires her to go with him to capture the ferocious creature.
Against better judgment, Pell teams up with the hot stranger to discover a world of magic where the impossible is reality, crooked mortals hide corrupt secrets, and mysteries older than myth can kill you. That thought alone makes her heart race, but things get even worse when she discovers he’s hiding world-altering secrets, and only she has what it takes to stop him.
Empire of Ash is the first book in the enthralling God of Secrets paranormal romance series. If you like Sarah J. Maas and Laura Thalassa, you’ll adore USA Today best-selling author L. R. W. Lee’s vulnerable, intimate, and gritty tale of destined lovers, potent sorcery, and unique ancient myth retellings.

Interesting
This story does have some action, as Pell must help Harpoc in fixing those she inadvertently released when reading their secrets aloud. Pell’s inner monologue offers some comedic moments and does feel like a separate person at times. A nice twist on some mythology. Sarah does an excellent job with the narrative and makes this book a pleasure to listen to.

Really enjoyed this, definitely recommend
I finished this in an embarrassingly low number of listens. Loved it and can’t wait to listen to the next one! The fantasy genre can get a bit samey and and tropes get repeated and recycled a lot, but this was so different from what I’ve read before and it worked so well.

An interesting read
Empire of Ash: The author got me engaged throughout the story, and the narrator was equally good. I like the comic relief that comes with this while listening; I find myself chuckling at the character's thoughts. However, I find that as I get into the book, it became a drag as it was almost repetitive, but I kept going. All in all, I like how the author infused mythology and real life

Gold eye Silver eye
This was a good story, it's quite entertaining and has a good story line that's easy to follow with no angst and really likeable characters, myths and lot's of secrets.
Pall is so smart quirky and fun, and her inner minion is so amazing... it's quite funny the conversation they have with each other, I'm myself am rolling my eyes a few times.
Harpoc is an interesting character, full of secrets that we have to discover more of him, but he's great and I really liked him.
I am on to the next book right now because I am invested in this story and want to know what's going to happen next.
It's my first time listening to Sarah Kisko and her narration was quite good, she was so perfect for voicing Pall and Harpoc and brings the story to life in a great manner. Hooray for finding new amazing narrator.

You know that feeling when you start a book and it turns out to be just a really fun and easy book with some really interesting twists on mythology? That is this book. I loved the characters that I met and the twists were spot on. I cant wait for more from this series and this author.

A fun read and interesting concept
It's probably pitched a bit young for me, but as YA fiction, it was fun, a good performance and a really interesting concept - Egyptology meets a cosmic cryptic conspiracy. I liked the heroine but the plot was probably a little too simple. Still there is plenty of room for it to develop and it zipped along quite cheerfully,

By the end I HAD to get the second book
It started off slowly and I originally thought that it might be aimed more at the young adult market but here I am, waaaaaay older than that and loving the story of Pell and Harpoc. L.R.W Lee has created a fantastic fantasy world, mixed with mythology from our own time. I kept finding myself looking for chores to do where I could just put my earbuds in and crack on with the story. Sarah has done a brilliant job with the narration. Can't wait for book 2.

Just when you think it's over
So many things happen in the book from the adventure to the mythological creatures to the God's to the many kept secrets and so much more. I was hooked from start to finish wanting to know everything Pal did and feeling like I learned so much. There was a lot of information in this book, too much for me to retain, that it still fascinated me as to how much I still didn't know but that I was curious to see how everything was connected. Archeology has always been a mystery to me and I wondered the stories behind it. this was an insight. Anyway, these two characters are amazing. Their first one is over so quick that you wonder how there is more to the story, but their adventures continue along with their banter, her growing desire, and his secrecy. It's worth the listen and leaves you wanting to know what adventures await in book 2.
This narrator was new to me but she was great. She gave each character their own personality and, when needed, an accent. you could tell who was talking and even new characters had their own uniqueness. I enjoyed her and look forward to her work in the future.

Captivating!
Pellucid Rose is a devoted archaeologist on a dig in Greece, when she finds what appears to be an ancient antiquity. She excitedly translates the hieroglyphics and unleashes a sphinx onto the world. Black smoke surrounds her and a very handsome, mysterious man appears. He is a calming influence on Pell and he begins to tell his story. First, he informs Pell that, since she is responsible for the sphinx's release into the world, she's the one who has to recapture it and take it back where it belongs. It's a dangerous mission and Pell comes to understand that there are more secrets than she could ever expect. She still doesn't know who he is and gives him names like Mr. Cocky Pants, Crazy Guy, but it's really Harpoc and he's the god of secrets. As they travel around the globe, recovering and replacing secrets, there's an attraction brewing between Harpoc and Pell that is sweet and still mysterious. I got a little annoyed with Pell's inner voice, especially when she whined or shouted over Pell. And I didn't like the addition of the messed up world and the corrupt politicians. It came up at the beginning and it was still a major point at the end. I want to be immersed in a fantasy, especially one that is woven this well. Pell and Harpoc are wonderfully fleshed out and have personalities that jump off the page. They're secretive and and amusing as they confront enemies who seek to destroy the god of secrets' power.
Sarah Kisko does an excellent job with the narration. The voices are clear and dynamic as she brings each character to life!

Absolutely Wonderful Listen/ Read!!
I have Never read or listened to this author before, got the book on Audible and listened to it there. Narrator was Excellent and brought the storyline to life. I found this Author's sense of humor so good, just a hoot!! The inner monologue Pell has throughout the book made me laugh more times then I can say. Pell the Main Character is quite a Character and she has the same deep streak of Curiositie as myself which just made me laugh all the more.
Highly recommended this Story and really want to listen to the 2nd book in this Series.

Very cool story!
I am definitely a huge fan of this book. The story was very original. I read/listen to a ton of paranormal/fantasy-type books. And sometimes it can get a little dry if you get a few in a row that are kind of similar. This was definitely not similar to anything I have read before. Oh, I was so mad when it ended. What a place to stop! (lol). I can't wait to see what else happens in this series. The narrator also did an amazing job. I love the way she talks. And she did an awesome job with both the male and female voices. I can't wait for more!
This book was given to me at my request (Thank you AudiobookObsesion, you guys are amazing). I am providing an honest review.

Loved everything about this story. The concept of scrolls holding secrets that when read come to life was very clever. I love the banter between the two main characters. I still feel there is one secret about Pel that hopefully will come to light in book 2. Can’t wait to see if my hunch is right.

Who's the dark stranger?
I love archaeology, geography and history. Reading about a young female archaeologist was very interesting including the side bar discrimination she faces with a few colleagues. I want to listen to the rest of the series to see how Pell and the stranger flush things out between her discovery and their relationship. I did think there was a bit of a longer pause between chapters than I am used to, I kept thinking someone was calling me and interrupting the audiobook but it wouldn't prevent me from listening to the rest of the books.

This book is about an archaeologist Pell who discovers a new find along with a few other additional unexpected things including a new character Harpoc after a tremor while on a dig. The finds lead her on some rather interesting adventures that will keep you riveted to the storyline wondering what both she and Harpoc are going to be doing next. The story has lots of intrigue along with providing some things to think about from an ethics and fairness perspective. This book does this in a great way without beating you over the head with it but does it in a way that just makes ne think about the issues - very well done. Loved the storyline and am looking forward to the next Book in this series.
