IGNITING DARKNESS

The conclusion to the Courting Darkness duology is the fifth fantasy set in a medieval world in which young women train as assassins to serve the god of death. This audiobook centers on Genevieve and Sybella. As the queen of Brittany joins the French court, tensions and intrigue run high and are keenly felt by the two heroines. Suzy Jackson, as Genevieve, maintains a soft affect that suits her role as a calming influence for the overwrought king. Her will and constancy become apparent to both listeners and Sybella. Amanda Cobb narrates Sybella's chapters, showing her fierce protectiveness of the queen and her reluctance to trust Genevieve. When the heroines discover the true villains, their relationship builds and deepens. Suspense and romance are also heightened by periodic chapters read by Brian Munn and Eva Kaminsky.
