Audio Book Summary

Legend holds that Glendower, a vanished Welsh king, sleeps beneath the hills until he's needed. The first person to find him will be granted a wish - either by seeing him open his eyes, or by cutting out his heart.

Gansey has it all - family money, a car, time for extracurriculars and friends - but he's always loved the tales of sleeping kings. He thinks he's found one too, or at least the area where one might be: in the town of Henrietta, VA. And the best way to be there is to attend prestigious Aglionby Academy for Boys.

Blue is the daughter of the town psychic in Henrietta, Virginia, but is too practical to believe in things like spirits or true love. Her policy is to stay away from Aglionby boys...but it may be that one in particular can change her mind about magic, and maybe even love.

    As this is my 3rd time reading through this series (as someone who doesn't reread often), I think it's safe to announce The Raven Cycle (and the follow-up Dreamer Trilogy!) as my favorite book series! I always find new wonder in Maggie Stiefvater's writing, and Will Patton brings his own magic to the story with his reading

    Man this girl can write. She has the ability to draw the listener along with her to meet these fantastical characters. Drags you along, like Bob Marley being forced by Christmas ghosts, to see things about this story that you cannot see, but must. This story takes you not through a rabbit hole but drops you unprotected from a great hight into a rift of exquisite and unimaginable phycological dares. Will Patton, with his southern accents done perfectly, over his already charming drawl, is to my mind the perfect reader for these books. This woman is a force to be reckoned with. My new favorite, maybe my all time favorite author. This comes from a sixty five year old woman who has read thousands of books. My absolutely highest recommendation.

    I enjoyed this book. Even though there's obviously a sequel, there's not the sense that you're left hanging. This novel has its own arc and i find that most satisfying. I love the character development. There's much more depth to discover, but I felt like these were real people, not just cardboard stand-ups. The action was thrilling. I regret my review isn't as good as the book. But ignore that part and go read The Raven Boys.
