    About this audiobook

    Discover the Graceling Realm in this unforgettable, award-winning novel from bestselling author Kristin Cashore.

    A New York Times bestseller * ALA Best Book for Young Adults * Mythopoeic Fantasy Award for Children's Literature Winner * Publishers Weekly, School Library Journal, Booklist, and BCCB Best Book of the Year

    “Rageful, exhilarating, wistful in turns"" (New York Times Book Review) with “a knee weakening romance” (Los Angeles Times). Graceling is a thrilling, action-packed fantasy adventure that will resonate deeply with anyone trying to find their way in the world.

    Graceling tells the story of the vulnerable-yet-strong Katsa, who is smart and beautiful and lives in the Seven Kingdoms where selected people are born with a Grace, a special talent that can be anything at all. Katsa’s Grace is killing.

    As the king’s niece, she is forced to use her extreme skills as his brutal enforcer. Until the day she meets Prince Po, who is Graced with combat skills, and Katsa’s life begins to change. She never expects to become Po’s friend. She never expects to learn a new truth about her own Grace—or about a terrible secret that lies hidden far away . . . a secret that could destroy all seven kingdoms with words alone.

    And don’t miss the sequel, Fire, and companion, Bitterblue, both award-winning New York Times bestsellers featuring Kristin Cashore’s elegant, evocative prose and unforgettable characters.

      This is a captivating fantasy story that, as an older woman, I totally enjoyed. The reader is very good, the world Cashore creates is fascinating, and the characters enchanting. It includes a lot of female empowerment themes, some sweet romance, and battling against life’s challenges, from extreme weather to power hungry evil kings. I had read it before, and enjoyed it a second time being read to me. I highly recommend it.

      This was such a lovely listen. I really loved the characters and the story. It was narrated beautifully too! Katsa and Po made such a great team and were a refreshing couple.

      Addictive. Fantastically well done without being overly formulaic. A fantasy that actually has worthwhile romance.

      One of my all time favorites. I read it years ago and Katsa will always be in my heart.
