Summary

House of Lies and Sorrow: Fae of Rewyth Book 1

Dance with the Fae Prince meets Cruel Beauty in this Young Adult Arranged Marriage Fae Fantasy.

Jade Farrow will die tomorrow. Her fate was decided years ago, when her useless father made a deal with the greedy fae king to save his own life. Now, she is being sent to marry one of the five ruthless fae princes. The only problem is that she is not the first human to marry a fae prince. And like every human wife before her, Jade is going to be killed before she can find a way out.

Malachi Weyland is the heir to the fae throne. It’s the reason his brothers have despised him all these years, and it’s the reason his father is adamant on finding him a human wife. Malachi has one job, and that is to unite the fae and human lands. But Malachi has a secret, and it’s one that gives him his rightful name amongst both the human and fae lands: The Prince of Shadows.

Jade and Malachi are faced with life-or-death challenges as Jade is thrown into Malachi’s magical world. Will she die just like every wife before her? Or will Malachi, the same fae who is feared across all of Rewyth, be the one to save her life?

Show no weakness. Yield no mercy. House of Lies and Sorrow is a fast-paced, arranged-marriage story between born enemies who are forced to work together. Readers who love slow-burn, angsty enemies-to-lovers stories between a broody fae prince and a stubborn human bride will love this magical first installment of the Fae of Rewyth series!

Absolutely Gripping

This story was exactly what I needed! Blackwood weaves the world of the fae and the mystical so beautifully that I found myself lost in the story for hours on end. Malachi was frustrating and alluring, and Jade was both strong and vulnerable, and their contrasts seemed to make the longing between them even more delicious!

If you enjoy ACOTAR (and want a small taste of The Hunger Games mixed in), but want to skip the hundreds of pages of world building, Blackwood has it covered, but please don’t sit here and think that is all this is. This is a beautiful story of love and betrayal, trust and heartache, and finding strength in the love of someone you hate to want, but want all the same.

The performances of the narrators added so much depth and delight to the story, and I have to say Corvin King perfected that growly timbre that is so perfectly Mal! It was an incredible feeling being able to immerse myself into this story for a couple of days, and listen to it unfolding so beautifully.


I LOVED IT.

The voice!

The man’s voice was a bit hard in the beginning but loved it at the end.

Potentially good!

Fae fantasy with arranged marriage: the man’s voice is sometimes too dark but the listening is really enjoyable and the story is potentially good. I found the end hurried.
