About this listen
Sarai has lived and breathed nightmares since she was six years old.
She believed she knew every horror, and was beyond surprise.
She was wrong.
In the wake of tragedy, neither Lazlo nor Sarai are who they were before. One a god, the other a ghost, they struggle to grasp the new boundaries of their selves as dark-minded Minya holds them hostage, intent on vengeance against Weep.
Lazlo faces an unthinkable choice - save the woman he loves, or everyone else? - while Sarai feels more helpless than ever. But is she? Sometimes, only the direst need can teach us our own depths, and Sarai, the muse of nightmares, has not yet discovered what she's capable of.
As humans and godspawn reel in the aftermath of the citadel's near fall, a new foe shatters their fragile hopes, and the mysteries of the Mesarthim are resurrected: Where did the gods come from, and why? What was done with the thousands of children born in the citadel nursery? And most important of all, as forgotten doors are opened and new worlds revealed: must heroes always slay monsters, or is it possible to save them instead?
Love and hate, revenge and redemption, destruction and salvation all clash in this gorgeous sequel to the New York Times bestseller, Strange the Dreamer.

Spellbinding
Wow,I’ve just finished listening to the Muse of Nightmares.I can truly say that I held my breath a lot during this book not knowing where the story was going. It is just such a beautiful, heart wrenching story of love, loss, grief and hope. The language used in this story is like poetry, words truly magically woven together.Ive got to say it has become one of my all time favourites.
The narrator delivers the story so well and brings the story to life.
Definitely recommend both books, they are truly remarkable.

You have spoiled my ears for all other stories!
Stumbled across this and its prequel while hunting for a good listen.
After being enthralled by the Daughter of Smoke and Bone series I made the easy decision to dive right in.
Quite simply Laini Taylor is probably my favourite author after listening to these latest epics.
The narration was also absolutely superb and brings the characters too life in such a way that I believe no one else could have.
Next!

Magical!
I really enjoyed this book and was intrigued, but not entirely surprised, to find that it ties in with the last trilogy of Ms Taylor's books I read. Can't wait to see what's next from Laini Taylor.
The audio performance of Steve West was done wonderfully, and with so much emotion, he really made the characters come alive for me.

Amazing series
This duology is one of the best stories I remember encountering. The plotting, world building, writing style and especially characterisation were superb, and it employed excellent versions of many of my favourite themes (gods, dreams, revolution, the interaction of consciousness, angels, parallel worlds, forgiveness). Minya in particular is one of the most interesting and moving characters I can think of.

Fantastic fantasy
Engaging throughout the book, prose as poetry and an ideal book for an fantasy fan.
