Acerca de esta escucha

Princess. Captive. Gladiator. Always a Warrior.

Fallon is the daughter of a proud Celtic king and the younger sister of the legendary fighter Sorcha. When Fallon was just a child, Sorcha was killed by the armies of Julius Caesar.

On the eve of her 17th birthday, Fallon is excited to follow in her sister's footsteps and earn her place in her father's war band. She never gets the chance.

Fallon is captured and sold to an elite training school for female gladiators - owned by none other than Julius Caesar himself. In a cruel twist of fate, the man who destroyed Fallon's family might be her only hope of survival.

Now, Fallon must overcome vicious rivalries, deadly fights in and out of the arena, and perhaps the most dangerous threat of all: her irresistible feelings for Cai, a young Roman soldier and her sworn enemy.

A richly imagined fantasy for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Cinda Williams Chima, The Valiant recounts Fallon's gripping journey from fierce Celtic princess to legendary gladiator and darling of the Roman empire.

I loved the story and narration both. I finished this book faster than any I've enjoyed in a long while. Absolutely exquisite work.

Utterly Amazing

Good story, exciting characters. Fallon is a strong heroine in character but she is not perfect. The story was not only her transition to Rome but her growing in the process. Cai is the man for her, strong and supportive.

Luv it!

I wanted to read this book.Because I loved the movie Gladiator with Russell Crowe. ever since seeing the movie? I was fascinated with pieces of information from Ancient Rome. I truly had no idea what The Valiant had in store for me. I am blown away by the interwoven elements of story by Livingston. I need more.

An Ancient Roman Masterpiece!

This was my first time listening to an audiobook, and I enjoyed it way more than I thought I would. The story takes a while to speed up, but after that it ended up being fast paced and exciting. I ended up loving it. It took me a while to get used to listening to audio, and I wasn't a big fan of the way the reader did the voices of the characters, but the story made up for that!

Awesome story

I was blown away by this lady gladiator story. I hadn't really read anything like it. I loved the rivalries/sisterhood between the girls. The narrator was absolutely perfect! Her voice is so dreamy!! I downloaded book 2 immediately.

Fantastically engaging.

My only qualm with the story is that it seemed to skip over the nitty gritty of how Fallon became “Victory. It lacked depth and real character development. The story felt like it skipped over months at a time and expected you to fill in the details yourself.
That said, I did enjoy it and absolutely love the idea (though wish it had the character and story development of say, STARZ show Spartacus), but won’t be continuing in the series.
I will say Fiona Hardingham as usual, is phenomenal!
Just go into this knowing it is very 2 dimensional and seemed to be written for Tweens.

Enjoyed it, but lacked depth.
