This book starts off with a bang since their parents are literally killed in the prologue I’m pretty sure, but then nothing really happens until part two of the book. That being said, the narrator did a really wonderful job. There was also something a bit weird about the narration, the volume kept fluctuating and there were some really obvious cuts in the recording, some of which I literally went back and had to listen to again to make sure I was hearing it right. I definitely enjoyed the book but not as much as I was hoping I would. I was looking for a relatively easy read to listen to, and this one came with good recommendations.
I’m going to be completely honest with you, I didn’t even read the blurb of this book before jumping into it. As Jude fights for a spot at the High Court, she is consumed with intrigues and deceptions, trickery and bloodshed. She sees mortals as slaves, drugged to work until exhaustion consumes their mind and body, not to mention the threats right in front of her with her faerie school fellows. Jude grows up as a mortal in faerie, taking classes with the rest of the faerie gentry. He was also a prominent general in the High Court of Faerie. When she and her twin was seven, her mother and father were killed in front of them by her mothers ex-fling and the father to their older half sister Vivienne. The story revolves around a mortal girl named Jude who lives in the world of Faerie.
The Cruel Prince by Holly Black is the first book in The Folk of the Air series.
