Acerca de esta escucha
"Narrator Saskia Maarleveld displays impressive vocal versatility in this gentle fantasy...Maarleveld captures each character and immerses listeners in the gothic setting of the sinister manor. Her intensifying pace and warm tone perfectly express the slow-burn romance that blooms between Wren and Hal as they work together to save their kingdoms." (AudioFile magazine, Earphones Award winner)
He saw the darkness in her magic. She saw the magic in his darkness.
Wren Southerland’s reckless use of magic has cost her everything: She's been dismissed from the Queen’s Guard and separated from her best friend - the girl she loves. So when a letter arrives from a reclusive lord, asking Wren to come to his estate, Colwick Hall, to cure his servant from a mysterious illness, she seizes her chance to redeem herself.
The mansion is crumbling, icy winds haunt the caved-in halls, and her eccentric host forbids her from leaving her room after dark. Worse, Wren’s patient isn’t a servant at all but Hal Cavendish, the infamous Reaper of Vesria and her kingdom’s sworn enemy. Hal also came to Colwick Hall for redemption, but the secrets in the estate may lead to both of their deaths.
With sinister forces at work, Wren and Hal realize they’ll have to join together if they have any hope of saving their kingdoms. But as Wren circles closer to the nefarious truth behind Hal’s illness, they realize they have no escape from the monsters within the mansion. All they have is each other, and a startling desire that could be their downfall.
Allison Saft’s Down Comes the Night is a snow-drenched romantic fantasy that keeps you racing through the chapters long into the night.
Love makes monsters of us all

Historia
Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them. With fewer dragons willing to bond than cadets, most would kill Violet to better their own chances of success.

Reseñas de la Crítica
"Complex, carefully rendered, and utterly addictive, Down Comes the Night is a YA fantasy classic in the making. Saft seamlessly blends an utterly original magic system, multifacted main characters, and forbidden romance into a gothic narrative that will stay with you long after the last page." (Christine Lynn Herman, author of The Devouring Gray)
"Down Comes the Night is a twisty dark ride through a gothic world that‘ll keep you up all night. Saft has crafted a deeply romantic tale with fresh magic and mystery on every page, and filled with an arresting cast. An engrossing, haunting, and beautiful addition to the YA shelf." (Isabel Ibañez, author of Woven in Moonlight)

Lorelei Kaskel, a folklorist with a quick temper and an even quicker wit, is on an expedition with six eccentric nobles in search of a fabled spring. The magical spring promises untold power, which the king wants to harness in order to secure his reign over the embattled country of Brunnestaad. Lorelei is determined to use this opportunity to prove herself and make her wildest, most impossible dream come true: to become a naturalist, able to travel freely to lands she’s only read about.

Historia
The year is 1348. Thomas, a disgraced knight, has found a young girl alone in a dead Norman village. An orphan of the Black Death, and an almost unnerving picture of innocence, she tells Thomas that plague is only part of a larger cataclysm - that the fallen angels under Lucifer are rising in a second war on heaven, and that the world of men has fallen behind the lines of conflict. Is it delirium or is it faith? She believes she has seen the angels of God. She believes the righteous dead speak to her in dreams. And now she has convinced the faithless Thomas to shepherd her across a depraved landscape to Avignon.

The voice actor was also amazing! She managed multiple voices, emotions, and accents skillfully throughout. Her voice was a joy to listen to! This story definitely wouldn't have been the same reading it myself. This book is going on my re-listen list!
I highly recommend this book for a frosty, moody winter evening, or on a day you wish were a frosty, moody winter evening :)

Just after I finished I realised that I’ve read another (more recent book) by the author: A Far Wilder Magic. That’s explains a lot because I think that her story was much more polished there.
The narrator did an outstanding job by giving every voice an uniqueness, so it was quite easy to distinguish characters!
Not exactly what I was expecting

I’m a huge fan of fantasy books and this book is a lovely and unique read.
I truly enjoyed the characters, the storyline, I love this narrator, I’m very familiar with her work and always enjoy her narration.
I’m a little in love with the Main Male character, I was very taken with how he was portrayed.
I don’t usually enjoy things involving political issues, but it was really interesting and done in a way that felt different and had a narrative that I felt was inspirational.
It has a great underlying message that I really enjoyed and I’ve been finding in a few other fantasy novels that I really really appreciate in these times.
Beautiful well written and creative.
I got utterly swept away.
I would whole heartedly recommend this book ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Excellent!!!!

I also didn’t like how it was read. Hal is far younger & emotionless than how he is made to sound. Both main characters are given voices that take away from the author’s intentions. Ren sounds so whiny, like she is almost in tears all the time. I felt there was more playfulness and assertion between her conversations. I would often wait to hear the author’s description of the interaction and replay it in my head to feel like I got was what meant to happen. Idk, maybe it’s just me.
Overall, I stuck around but I was over it off jump. Story didn’t feel too creative.
Cheesy and Predictable
