About this listen

Rule #3: Don't stare at invisible faeries.

Aislinn has always seen faeries. Powerful and dangerous, they walk hidden in the mortal world. Aislinn fears their cruelty - especially if they learn of her Sight - and wishes she were as blind to their presence as other teens.

Rule #2: Don't speak to invisible faeries.

Now faeries are stalking her. One of them, Keenan, who is equal parts terrifying and alluring, is trying to talk to her, asking questions Aislinn is afraid to answer.

Rule #1: Don't ever attract their attention.

But it's too late. Keenan is the Summer King who has sought his queen for nine centuries. Without her, summer itself will perish. He is determined that Aislinn will become the Summer Queen at any cost - regardless of her plans or desires.

Suddenly, none of the rules that have kept Aislinn safe are working anymore, and everything is on the line: her freedom; her best friend, Seth; her life; everything.

Faerie intrigue, mortal love, and the clash of ancient rules and modern expectations swirl together in Melissa Marr's stunning 21st-century faery tale.

Critic reviews

"A fully imagined faery world which even non-fantasy (or faerie) lovers will want to delve into." ( Publishers Weekly)
"The fantasy of being pursued by two young men is alluring in itself, but when one is a pierced and tattooed sexy outsider and the other is a blindingly beautiful King of Faery, how much better can it get?" ( The Washington Post's Book World)

Better than expected

I actually did not want to like this book because there are so many in the series :) But after just a few pages,I was hooked. Parts of the story were predictable, but to get to those points the story was a lot of fun. I particularly enjoyed the descriptions of the summer fae in the sun beams that surround them.
It looks like each book in the series involves different characters, so I don't know if you need to read one after the other right away, which would make reading the series easie

Lovely ;)

I would recommend this book (series) to most adults who love the fantasy genre. The mixing of Faery in every day life is something I enjoyed a whole lot. The narration was to be desired slightly. However I know the rest of the series has a male narrator and he is much better.

Terrible narrating.

That narrator though.... Yuck!!!

I got through this audible only because I paid for the book and have a hard time walking away from an unfinished book. At this point, I'm undecided if I'll even continue with the series.

The story is ok. It was the narrator that ruined the whole experience. She smacked her lips or on gum the entire time. It was beyond irritating. Her extreme long pauses weren't necessary. I could hear every swallow she did. I even heard rumblings like a stomach growling at one point. It made listening to this book very hard.

The plus side to continuing the series? It's a different narrator.

Good but not great.

I struggled to get into the book. The main character had plenty of external conflicts and resulting internal conflicts, but I didn't walk away having read the book and feeling connected to her or understanding who she is. Nevertheless, the story did become more intriguing as it went on and I did like the non-cliche, balanced ending. I'm willing to give Ink Exchange, the second book, a chance.

The narrator chewing gum...

Loved the story. Hated the reader. You can literally hear her chewing gum. Gross.

Background noise

There’s some kind of noise in the background of the audio that sounds like someone chewing or something and it was slightly distracting and extremely irritating
