The Bridge Kingdom

This book was fantastic…until the end, if you can call it that. There wasn\’t an ending, just a lead in to another book BUT there isn\’t another book. I listened to almost 12 hours of this book to find out it leaves you hanging??? 131 people found this helpful

I wish I hadn’t spent the hours on this very slow moving book for something, albeit predictably, to finally happen only for it to end in a cliffhanger. I love Laura fortgang aka Tillie Hooper so I was happy to hear you narration for the most part. It was just really long and a lot of boring that could easily have been completed in one book if there was no true world building going to happen. If you want to listen maybe wait till the series is done before you get this one. I’m annoyed I wasted so much time 44 people found this helpful

I loved the Malediction series and if it\’s possible I think I love this one even more. Finishing this book in less than 24 hours it\’s no surprise that this book has made it to the top of my list of best reads in 2018. The characters were fun and witty, passionate and strong. First person point of view switching between Lara and Aren throughout the book, which I thought was expertly done. I really enjoyed the duel perspective, it certainly brought the story together delving into both their lives. The narrators were excellent as well, which made the book that much better. The slow burning romance was quite refreshing, rather than the insta-love many books tend to have. I wouldn\’t say the romance was a huge part of the book, there was a lot of spying, deceit and manipulation. All in all it was an excellent balance of many things I love in a fantasy novel. Lara held back throughout the book, not wanting to give away her secrets. It was nice at the end to see the full extent of her training and I am so excited to see her full potential in the next book. 53 people found this helpful

I might have misunderstood the glowing recommendation for this book. The review said there were parts the listener went back to over and over. I had a completely different experience. It was horrific. The death and misery were constant. I managed to keep slogging through waiting for good news or happy conclusion, disappointed again. Absurd violence. I want to get my money back. 21 people found this helpful

I actually had to take a break when the story started to reach its climax because it was so thrilling I couldn’t handle my anxiety over the characters! Thrilling and well crafted; I can’t wait for the next book! (But this is NOT “teen” reading.) Only negatives: The obnoxious thunder and rain sound effects between chapters are just annoying and distracting. And one of the minor male character’s voice is like nails on a chalkboard – luckily not frequently heard – he’s somehow both low and high pitched at the same time. 22 people found this helpful
