A beast. An enchantress. An unbreakable curse.... Deep within the sentient woods, Larkin uncovers a secret that puts her in dreadful danger. Worse, now that the beast has had his taste, he’ll never stop hunting her. But the forest has woken something inside Larkin; something that gives her the power to fight back. Magic. Using forbidden magic will get Larkin hanged. Not using it will leave her at the mercy of the beast's enchantment. But there’s a third option; one that scares her more than anything.

magical retelling
Revisado: 01-08-21
Larkin was foraging near the woods when her little sister disappears. Desperate to find her, Larkin goes into the Forbidden Forest knowing there is a chance she won't make it back out. Every year girls go missing. Either they are called into the forest or they are given up as an offering. Either way, they are never heard from again. There are beasts in the forest and its filled with magic, a stirring that drives men mad. Larkin found her sister and escaped the forest but now she has to pay the Piper.
I really did enjoy the Pied Piper retelling part. There were several key groups of characters. Pipers- boys from Alamant that train to be able to walk through the forest. The pipers have magic that they use through the melody in their instrument. The boys have to work around a curse to gain and give information.
There were several key groups of characters. The Village of Hamel is very superstitious. They know there are beasts in the forest and have made a pack with the Druids to stay as safe as possible.
Bane is a Lord's son from Hamel that is trying to be a good leader. He knows he will one day run the town and takes this responsibility seriously. When Larkin, a childhood friend, is in need of help to escape the curse of the forest he tries to come to her rescue several times.
The narrator Lynn Bradford sang along with a whimsical character and gave so much expressive commentary to the cast of characters. I love listening to audiobooks, especially while I'm busy doing something else. I started this book on the way to Ohio so I had a 9 hour uninterrupted drive time to just absorb the story. There wasn't any additional sounds or music to the audiobook, just narration. Even so Lynn did a great job adding magic to the story.
I received this audiobook as part of my participation in a blog tour with Audiobookworm Promotions. The tour is being sponsored by Lynn Bradford. The gifting of this audiobook did not affect my opinion of it.
