Rosemary and Rue Audiobook (Free)

The world of Faerie hardly ever disappeared: it merely went into hiding, continuing to exist parallel to your own. Secrecy may be the key to Faerie’s survival-but no key can be kept forever, so when the fae and mortal worlds collide, changelings are created. Half-human, half-fae, outsiders from delivery, these second-class children of Faerie spend their lives fighting for the respect of their immortal relationships. Or, in the case of Oct “Toby” Daye, rejecting it completely. After getting burned by both about Rosemary and Rue edges of her history, Toby has refused the fae globe, retreating into a “normal” life. Unfortunately for her, Faerie has various other concepts. The murder of Countess Evening Winterrose, among the top secret regents from the San Francisco Bay Region, pulls Toby back into the fae world. Unable to withstand Evening’s dying curse, which binds her to research, Toby is compelled to job application her old placement as knight errant towards the Duke of Shadowed Hillsides and begin renewing outdated alliances that may demonstrate her only hope of solving the mystery…before the curse catches up with her. “…one of the most successful mixes of mystery and dream I’ve ever read-like Raymond Chandler by way of Pamela Dean. Toby Daye has become one of my favorite heroines, and I can’t wait to learn more of her carrying on ventures.” – T. A. Pratt, author of Dead Reign
