Acerca de esta escucha
A girls' night out means three things to me: drinking whiskey with my best friend, trying not to kill anyone, and keeping my magic hidden. A fae gladiator like me isn’t supposed to exist anymore.
But my Friday night takes a bad turn when a lethally gorgeous fae - Ruadan - tries to assassinate me. He's known as the Wraith, and he's taken a vow of silence until he’s slaughtered the outlaws on his kill list. Outlaws like me.
Ruadan lets me live on one condition: I have to earn my place at the Institute of the Shadow Fae. As a powerful fighter, I can take the competition.
But things fall apart when I’m given an impossible choice: Betray my mentor Ruadan or my best friend dies. Now, I face a quandary my gladiatorial past did not prepare me for.
This book is from the Demons of Fire and Night world.

Historia
Plucked out of the Collector’s Pens, auctioned off to a vampire contingent, and sent across the ocean to the Alpha Territories was not exactly how I planned to spend my week. Actually, scratch that. I had planned the first bit. But I was supposed to be sold to the werewolves so I could save my friend from a fate worse than death. Instead, the bloodsuckers have me and so far? It's not going great. I've been shoved into a corset and made to look like an extra on the cast of Bridgerton, all to take part in the Harvest Games....

I never thought I'd be singing happy birthday to myself in a dungeon. And yet when a sinfully sexy demon crashes happy hour, that's exactly what happens. He’s known as the Lord of Chaos, and he’s mistaken me for my succubus doppelgänger. Happy birthday to me. When he tastes my blood, he finally understands I’m mortal. And I realize we have something in common: We both crave revenge. So we make a deal

Once I was a fae princess with sea-magic at my fingertips. Now? I’m a hunted supernatural in a squalid shop, stripped of my power. My only comforts are stale cookies, Elvis records, and my hula-hoop. Then a lethally sexy fae king arrives and rips even those away. After the brutal king throws me in prison, I strike a bargain with him: my freedom in exchange for helping him find a magic blade. What Lyr doesn’t know is that the blade might restore my stolen magic. But as we journey, the gorgeous jerk starts to make me feel things I’ve never felt.

My heart hasn't beat in a 1,000 years. I haven't uttered a word in prison, and the guards keep their distance. If they get too close, they die - until at last, my magic binds my soul to another. Unfortunately, the person destined to save me is a night elf - the enemy of my kind. And yet, when I see her in the cell across from mine, an ember starts to burn in my chest.

Historia
I thought this would be a simple profiling case. Just another Jack the Ripper wannabe, prowling London’s streets, searching for easy kills. I was wrong. This killer is fae, and he’s as elusive as smoke on the wind. But I’m an FBI profiler, and it’s my job to track him down. It doesn’t matter that one of the main suspects - a lethally alluring fae - is trying to seduce me...or kill me, I’m not sure which. I won’t be stopped, not even when panic roils through the streets of London or when the police start to suspect me.

Most days, I steal from ships to earn a living. Not glamorous, admittedly, but it's honest work. Okay, fine. It isn't honest either, but it means I get to eat. Until one night, a sinfully sexy angel strides into my favorite dance hall and compels me to work for him. It isn't just work, though. He wants me to be his wife in Castle Hades. Apparently, his prophetic dreams say I'll help him become king.

They say monsters are made. I was born one. With an angelic face and a cursed talent, I eat magic and ask for seconds. When I pass through the land, flowers wither, earth scorches, and colors bleed out—all at the command of my father, the God of Ruin. I escaped his prison, only to stumble upon a dangerous school ruled by five heirs. Girls fight to fall into their laps, even though they’re all hot mess assholes.

Ursula can't remember a single thing from before three years ago, so she has to keep her life simple. All she wants is to earn enough money for rent - and maybe a bit left over for a new pair of boots. But on her 18th birthday, all hell breaks loose, quite literally, when a hellhound shifter shows up in her kitchen. Kester's lethally gorgeous, and he's come with a terrifying message: Ursula owes her soul to a demon. No one seems to care that she doesn't remember striking that deal.

Being a defective marks me in the eyes of the Solis Fae. Wingless. Magicless. Weak. To my kind, I’m nothing—not when strength is needed to survive the perpetual snow and ice that shrouds our northern continent in endless winter. But I’ve persevered, living a meaningful yet simple life with my sister...until the hated Crown Prince of the Winter Court thunders into our village. Prince Norivun’s massive black wings and potent magic cloud my senses and steal my breath. He’s beautiful yet brutal, so when he whisks me away and locks me in his castle I’m certain my death is tomorrow’s promise.

Historia
I thought this would be a simple profiling case. Just another Jack the Ripper wannabe, prowling London’s streets, searching for easy kills. I was wrong. This killer is fae, and he’s as elusive as smoke on the wind. But I’m an FBI profiler, and it’s my job to track him down. It doesn’t matter that one of the main suspects - a lethally alluring fae - is trying to seduce me...or kill me, I’m not sure which. I won’t be stopped, not even when panic roils through the streets of London or when the police start to suspect me.

Historia
I spent five years saving up for a European vacation. But instead of drinking champagne on the beach, I get swept into a war of espionage between the humans and the fey. It turns out, I have a magic power needed to fight an evil fey king. I'm quickly whisked off to an elite spy academy in a hidden realm. There, in the ancient and gothic halls of Avalon Tower, snobbery and brutal competitions are among the oldest traditions.

Historia
Salem is the light-bringer, gorgeous as sin and just as evil. Some call him Lucifer. What do I call him? Whatever he tells me to, because he's cast a mind-control spell over me. He hates me, but I have a plan. I'll lead him to a sorcerer who can kill him. But as I journey with the fallen god, I see him watching me, wanting me. And it's mutual. Turns out fate has a sick sense of humor because my destiny ties me to Salem. Still, I have to stop him before he gets what he wants. Because if I fail, he will unleash hell on earth.

Most days, I steal from ships to earn a living. Not glamorous, admittedly, but it's honest work. Okay, fine. It isn't honest either, but it means I get to eat. Until one night, a sinfully sexy angel strides into my favorite dance hall and compels me to work for him. It isn't just work, though. He wants me to be his wife in Castle Hades. Apparently, his prophetic dreams say I'll help him become king.

Historia
At Bloodwing Academy, blood is currency, but a dragon's legacy is priceless—and as dangerous as fire. I thought surviving my first year in Bloodwing's deadly halls would be enough. I was wrong. I accidentally woke a dragon—a creature of myth, of death, of fire. Now, every highblood house wants control over me and the dragon's legacy I carry. But here's the truth: I have no control. I'm bluffing my way through every encounter, trying to keep everyone from realizing that I'm not the one pulling the dragon's strings.

I have to say I read a ton of books and I definitely have favorite authors!!! With that said, I have loved every book I have read by C.N. Crawford I literally could not put this one down.
The plot and sub-stories, the questions leaving me with the desire to explore the rest of the series, the chemistry of the characters... Court of Shadows is full of oh my goodness moments leaving me with the desire to learn more.
I do also want to say this review in particular is about the Audible version.
This book is just a fantastic listen. One of the funniest books I have heard in a long time. It just comes to life and the accent so fun.
The narrator Amanda Dolan was excellent. Simply a perfect choice. Trust me when I say listening to this book takes it to an entirely new level (it's one thing to know the characters have accents as you read but trust me you are going to love hearing it out loud!!!).
To give you an idea of the wit and banter I am going to share some random spoilers in no particular order so honestly you will have to read/listen to the book to find out what really going on in this fantastic world.
I usually don’t do this so forgive me if I take anything out of context or paraphrase. I want to give you a hint not the entire storyline.
The description of a bar kerfuffle with a hipster vampire Ha-ha loved it!!!
In addition, you gotta love a recruiting speech that includes:
You will compete with the other novices and probably die.
Your entire existence serves no purpose.
You’re being given a chance at greatness instead of living like an animal.
Just hysterical. I loved the response Arianna gives as she ponders her options and the friends she finds along the way.
Melusine is a capable but lonely character and was very endearing. I loved the vulnerable moment when she tells Arianna “I'm not good with people not even broom people”. “At least three of them hated me and I could never get then to eat the cake… We both have a lot to lose”. I loved the alliance formed (as two competitors bonded) when they had no reason to help or trust each other.
Arianna is a believable main character as she fights to hide her past as gladiator, conquer her fears, and survive. She meets each challenge with the skill of the warrior she is and learns to navigate a strange and questionable future.
Maddan ugh such a troll. He is despicable but fascinating because his lack of empathy and feelings towards others, and the overwhelming sense of self-entitlement is very Machiavellian. So yes, I hate him but I also cannot wait to see what he does next.
Ruadan is dauntingly menacing and yet caring towards Arianna as he tries to help her survive (or cause her impending death she isn’t sure). It is amazing to realize you like a character and want to understand their motives when the character doesn’t event talk, the ability to convey his moods and allure with body stance, brooding, and not so subtle displays of powers is some masterful writing and I want to learn more.
I was drawn in by this character despite his radio silence mode : )
Ok so that is really just a small hint of the awesome characters and well almost no real in-depth examination on the plot. Why you may ask? Well because I want you to be curious enough to check it out and read/listen to the series!!! I promise you will not be disappointed.
Awesome Read and an Even Better Listen!!!!

Now the content.....
I gave 5 stars as my pessimism towards this series may be wrong....The real action & story advancement occurs fairly early; which could be a good or a bad thing. I'm concerned that the main arc will come too quick & leave an unsatisfied feeling; so I decided to read the summaries for the remaining books in Goodreads (the below Spoiler section gives an analogy on how that went).
Only being halfway through, I see potential for this series. It has a different perspective of supers & how they operate; which is refreshing & concerning (as any unconventional narrative needs solid details to bring the world to life).
I just don't know if I'll continue, as I feel torn. The summaries for the other books concerns me, in that this series will only build suspense & action surrounding the main arc & consistently circle back even after the main conflict was resolved.
....................................................................................
**** SOME SPOILERS ABOUT THE STORYLINE ***
...
...
...
The storyline revolves around a protection organization, with a twist, that gives rogue supers an option -- become a recruit or be executed. Recruits can be killed at any time, for any reason, & are commonly "weeded out" during trials. The twist is that you don't initially know if the organization is on the "good side" or an elite mafia-style group. Because the main character states that the town's people are kept safe through paying tithes to the organization. Yet, since supers are not allowed to be openly roaming, who exactly are people being protected from? But many supers fear the organization & gave them an underground, snarky nickname. That's because when people call them to report an illegal super, that super is usually eliminated. The first rule of the super club....
The Goodreads summaries, for the remaining books, have me debating if I'll continue. The summaries seem like the last few hills of a rollercoaster before the ride ends. They read like the low momentum thrills after the biggest drop occurs at the ride's beginning. This 1st book seems like the 1st drop & the remaining are made of a loop (for gaining some suspense in book 2 that just circles back to normal) & low momentum hills for the rest (for dragging the main arc from book 1 into surprise moments), before it all ends & leaves you only remembering the fun of that initial drop.
Enjoyable but series not fully on Audible
