About this listen
In a world full of magic and mystery, eighteen-year-old Maia is the exiled princess of Comoros and rightful heir to the throne. Forced to live as a servant in her enemy’s home, Maia flees her captors and begins a perilous quest to save her people. To survive, she must use magic she has learned in secret - despite the fact that women are forbidden to control it. Hunted by enemies at every turn, Maia realizes that danger lurks within her, too. Her powers threaten to steal not only her consciousness but also her sense of right and wrong. Can she set herself free and save the realm she loves - even if her people have forgotten her? In bestselling author Jeff Wheeler’s fantasy epic, the answer may be only the beginning to Maia’s journey throughout the mystical land of Muirwood.

By Cheshu!
This book is written in parts skipping from past to present and back again. I am not sure I particularly liked this way, but I listened on.
Maia, 18 year old daughter of the King of Comoros, banished, named bastard and disinherited in order that her father's mistress and her children can inherit what is rightfully hers. Her Mother, also banished to the Abbey of Muirwood is kept away from her daughter until she agrees to divorce her husband in order that he can marry his mistress.
Maia then begins her quest to reach the Kingdom of Naess, where she hopes to study to become a Maston. However, somewhere along the way an evil spirit enters her body
This is a book of promise but is, in my opinion, let down somewhat by Maia, who gives new meaning to the word victim. Also, whether the Mastons are any better than the Dochte Mandar has yet to be revealed, but I have my doubts from this first chapter in the trilogy.

Great story which will keep you listening
I really enjoyed this book. I struggled initially with the narrator's tone which I felt sounded quite robotic but once I got used to it it was fine. The story is very engaging and I frequently found myself at home after a car journey sitting outside to listen for just a little longer before switching off.

Brilliant
Loved the story and how it dovetailed the Muirwood trilogy. Nearly shouted, cheered and warned her aloud several times! Mr Wheeler thank you for your dream

Gave up after ten minutes
Sometimes you have to give a book a chance. Sometimes a narrator will draw you in. This book is neither. Just so boring
