About this listen
Tobias Kaya doesn't care about The Savior. He doesn't care that She's the ruler of the realm or that She purified the land, and he certainly doesn't care that She's of age to be married. But when competing for Her hand proves to be his last chance to save his family, he's forced to make The Savior his priority.
Now Tobias is thrown into the Sovereign's Tournament with nineteen other men, and each of them is fighting - and killing - for the chance to rule at The Savior's side. Instantly, his world is plagued with violence, treachery, and manipulation, revealing the hidden ugliness of his proud realm. And when his circumstances seem especially dire, he stumbles into an unexpected romance, one that opens him up to unimaginable dangers and darkness.
Trigger warnings: this book contains graphic violence, foul language, and sexual situations.

I did finish the book and did enjoy the story, though. It is well-written enough to warrant a listen while walking a dog (like I did) or during mundane tasks like cleaning etc. I would recommend this book to people who enjoy the genre and don't mind some rather obvious plot twists. Not because the story is bad, but because it is rather obvious and the reader might figure out what's going on immediately.
The fight scenes were all done well enough, even if I wasn't gripping the edge of my proverbial seat to see what happens next. I'm in no way a professional, but I do know I've read better fight scenes. Maybe/probably in her next books this gets better.
All in all, this is a good enough read for a friend of the genre, but might still come across as boring and too melodramatic.
As a side note, while the actor reading the story did a good job, I didn't exactly find that his voice fit the character of Tobias. For this, your mileage may vary tremendously, so I will only mention it here as a subjective point, recognising that this may have affected my enjoyment of the whole novel in some way.
a good read

I never have supported a couple in my life and I never have related to a main character from a fiction story.
It's different with this book.
The most mesmerize story ever.

Certain things in this book also felt like tokenism. Like when one party in a certain relationship disappears, the other is also conveniently written out of the story, as though they were only there as representation. I think it's important to note that these two characters were never fleshed out, and all I really knew about them was their relationship.
On top of this, the few characters that did hold my attention were annihilated, leaving mostly unlikable ones.
The main character was okay. A lot of the time, I liked him, but he didn't seem like main character material. He didn't exactly accomplish much himself, without help that felt like cheating.
A lot of conflict felt like it could've been avoided by a simple conversation.
I did find myself occasionally swooning about the romance.
The plot twist wasn't twisting, and by the time it was revealed, I couldn't really muster more than a "damn, that's wild."
For a book that takes twenty hours to listen to, A LOT seems to have been crammed into the final 3-4 chapters, making the ending seem too abrupt.
All that said, I do think it was a good book to listen to. I listened to the whole thing over the course of three days, and in that time I did have moments where I was super invested. I am hesitant to listen to the second book however, as I just don't know if a rehash of this book from a different perspective will be captivating.
Enjoyable but flawed
