About this listen
Phineas Smith has been cursed with a power no one could control. Roark Lyne is his worst enemy and his only hope.
The only human student at Mather's School of Magick, Phineas Smith has a target on his back. Born with the rare ability to tap into unlimited magick, he finds both Faerie Courts want his allegiance - and will do anything to get it. They don't realize he can't levitate a feather, much less defend the Faerie Realm as it slips into civil war.
Unseelie Prince Roark Lyne, Phineas's roommate - and self-proclaimed arch-nemesis - is beautiful and brave and a pain in the ass. Phineas can't begin to sort through their six years of sexual tension masquerading as mutual dislike. But Roark is also the only one able to help Finn tame his magick.
Trusting Roark's mysterious motives may be foolish; not accepting his temporary protection would be deadly.
Caught in the middle of the impending war, Phineas and Roark forge a dangerous alliance. And as the walls between them crumble, Phineas realizes that Roark isn't the monster he'd imagined. But their growing intimacy threatens to expose a secret that could either turn the tide of the war...or destroy them both.
Contains mature themes.

Surprisingly good
Despite the dodgy English accent of the narrator, this was an enjoyable story. Good enough for me to purchase the second book, which I shall review in a moment..

Interesting story
Interesting story with likeable characters and good narration. There are a few things that don't make sense but I expect that they'll be covered in future books.

Love this fantasy series!!
Wonderful wonderful wonderful. Enemies to friends gay love story between a faery prince and as human with magic powers. I absolutely love the characters of Roark and Phineas. The slow build up is thrilling and the sexual tension between them is electric. Real page turner. The story keeps you in your edge of your seat as both young men fight with their own family troubles whilst trying to deny their growing fondness for each other until the dam breaks. I chewed through this book and the second one and can't wait for the third!

A great story that draws you in!
After listening to this book I couldn’t stop and I have now finished the series.
I can only recommend listening to or reading the series! All books captivates from beginning to end and they are connected each with focus on a different prince.
John Solo is one of my favourite narrators and as per usual he delivers an amazing performance that adds to the story!

Not my cup of tea; might be yours
I couldn’t fault the narrator - and I’m fussy about narration, but I thought he was doing a perfectly good job, so it’s no fault of his that I DNF’d within 20 minutes.
The reason that I bounced off this book hard is that I personally really have no interest in American University Life. Reading about a human magic user at what appears to be a very heavyhanded Fairy Tale University is not my idea of a good time, and when Grant decided to throw Robin Goodfellow into the mix as a random bully “making a joke” which was just randomly saying something mean with no punchline, rather than saying something CLEVERLY mean, I realised that I was not going to have the patience to hang in there even for a free listen.
However if you are quite young, and/or American, and/or have no real interest in fairytales or fantasy beyond as window dressing, this might be your cup of tea. I imagine that the protagonist has adventures beyond drinking the next beer.

Excellent
Really enjoyed the story. Felt a little like I was missing books but apparently this is definitely the first one. That's the only mark I have against the story itself. Loved the rest of it.
The performance... Please stop trying to do accents that you're not very good at. Just read the damn thing normally if you can't.
