Jennifer Saint, bestselling author of Ariadne In A Day of Fallen Night, Samantha Shannon sweeps readers back to the universe of Priory of the Orange Tree and into the lives of four women, showing us a course of events that shaped their world for generations to come.

Starred review from October 31, 2022
Shannon artfully builds on the world of The Priory of the Orange Tree with this masterful standalone prequel. Taking place centuries before the events of Priory, it’s an expansive epic that interweaves four connected story lines as the protagonists reckon with both personal conflicts and the cataclysmic resurgence of wyrmkind. Glorian Berethnet, teenage daughter to the queen of Inys, faces mounting pressure to conceive her own child and secure the line of succession. Wulfert Glenn, a foundling and housecarl sworn to Glorian’s father, the king of Hróth, struggles to cast off whispers of witchcraft that cling to him from his mysterious past. Meanwhile, Tunuva Melim, a warrior of the Priory, ventures into the outside world to pursue a runaway postulant whose relationship with an outsider puts their sanctuary at risk. And Dumai, raised in a secluded mountaintop temple, is thrown into a dangerous world of courtly intrigue when she learns she’s the firstborn daughter of Jorodu, Emperor of Seiiki. As roving monsters sow destruction throughout the realm, all must race to survive. Shannon skillfully grounds high-stakes fantasy action in human emotion and a mature exploration of duty, bodily autonomy, identity, and motherhood. Series fans and any reader looking for queernorm fantasy will be thrilled by this self-assured adventure. Agent: David Godwin, David Godwin Assoc.

- content: This audiobook is a long and complex prequel to THE PRIORY OF THE ORANGE TREE. The West/Glorian chapters are narrated by Ellie Kendrick, who portrays a young queen who is struggling against her destiny. The South/Tunuva chapters, narrated by Sheila Atim, focus on the Priory warriors who are training to defeat fire-breathing dragons. In the East/Dumai chapters, Hanako Footman presents the story of a young "god-singer" in a culture that worships dragons. Finally, the North/Wulf chapters, narrated by Thoren Ferguson, tells the story of the sole male character who is featured. While all the narrators give skillful performances, listeners may find the accompanying pdf file helpful for keeping the threads of the complex plot straight. J.E.M. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine
