The Queens of Innis Lear Audiobook Summary
“[Narrator Kate Reading] narrates in a smoky tone, and readers will appreciate her varied voices for the large cast of characters.” — Booklist
Dynasties battle for the crown in Tessa Gratton’s debut adult epic fantasy audiobook, The Queens of Innis Lear.
Three Queens. One crown. All out war.
Gaela. Ruthless Commander.
I am the rightful heir of Innis Lear. No more will I wait in the shadows and watch my mother’s murderer bleed my island dry.
The King’s hold on the crown must end–willingly or at the edge of my sword.
Regan. Master Manipulator.
To secure my place on the throne, I must produce an heir. Countless times I have fed the island’s forests my blood. Yet, my ambition is cursed.
No matter what or whom I must destroy, I will wield the magic of Innis Lear.
Elia. Star-blessed Priest.
My sisters hide in the shadows like serpents, waiting to strike our ailing king. I must protect my father, even if it means marrying a stranger.
We all have to make sacrifices. Love and freedom will be mine.
“Amazing. Just Amazing.”–Robin McKinley
