About this listen
A legacy forged in blood and shrouded in nightmares.
With everyone she’s ever loved dead, Effie’s fate is no longer one of her choosing. Overnight, she becomes the newest initiate of the Keepers of Prophecy, a secret order that Sees what the future holds.
War looms for the land of Elysia, unless Effie can prevent it by harnessing her visions and interpreting their meaning. Yet as what she Sees becomes far more dark and sinister, she finds herself no closer to deciphering it.
Forced to rely on her tutor and Guardian, her inner turmoil deepens when feelings within herself—those she thought died with the man she loved—resurface. One man would give up everything to be with her. The other challenges her at every turn.
Struggling to focus amid her awakening desires, Effie fights to unravel the truth buried within her nightmares. Will she discover it in time to be the salvation Elysia needs...or will one wrong reading damn them all?
Equal parts dark fantasy and forbidden romance, The Keeper’s Legacy by Meg Anne is chock full of delicious dark angst! Fans of K.F. Breene and Sara C. Roethle can't get enough!

The Keeper’s Legacy is the first book in an adult fantasy-romance trilogy set within the Chosen universe. Listeners do not need to listen to the Chosen series first, although events and characters from the books will be referenced.
Recommended for ages 18+ due to adult language, content, and scenes with graphic violence.
©2019 Words That Sparkle (P)2022 Words That SparkleIt did not disappoint and this is a fully immersive dark fantasy novel which really does bring in the creepy factor. It is set in Meg Anne's Chosen Universe but she is so expert at subtle world building that you do not need to have read the previous books in order to be completely drawn in and understand where you are. This book deals with some dark issues in a world that is still facing a looming sinister threat, our young heroine Effie sets off on a journey away from her home and friends to join the mysterious Keepers after she discovers her gift of prophecy.
Gift or curse, the novel delicately pulls at this thread and draws out the inner conflict of young Effie as she struggles to interpret her visions in the hope to warding off the foretold end times. Effie is a wonderful sparky, sometimes petulant, but fierce and kind hearted young woman desperately trying to prove herself. I love her.
This book is definitely for those who enjoy high stakes fantasy like Lord of the Rings or Cassandra Clare's Shadowhunter series which I totally got vibes of while listening to this. Its also a delicious slow burn romance with a potential love triangle emerging for Effie between the beautiful and arrogant exiled prince, Kieran and the broody stoic alpha male Guardian, Lucian. This is the definition of slow burn, brace yourself you are in for the long haul for the pay off.
But all of the above is exponentially increased by the performances of the three voice actors brought in for this book and the absolute game changer of duet narration!! I've only been introduced to duet narration in the last few months thanks to these US Indie Authors and I am here to plead the UK audio producers WE NEED MORE OF THIS!!!!
Anyway, I digress, back to this particular audiobook, these three actors are INSANELY awesome in this and manage to perfect encapsulate the atmosphere of the book and bring to life all of the characters so vividly that you feel like you are right with them performing a play right in front of you. Stella Hunter is truly remarkable at bringing the multifaceted Effie to life in a way that you just can't help but fall for her. Shane East brings out his smoldering deep voice to perfection for the brooding Lucian but also scaring the living daylights out of you as the creepy Triumvirate. James Joseph is my personal obsession since I discovered him back in May this year, he is an amazing chameleon like voice actor from his smoky seductive drawl for Kieran, to downright scary Shadows and then a Dumbledore-esque Cyril. He can literally do anything and will just make you melt everytime you listen to him.
In this audiobook you can indulge in additional James Joseph as it includes the prequel novella, The Dreamer, which is about Kieran's backstory and its a sensational listen if you want to hear a masterclass in storytelling.
Basically, this book is freaking awesome and I am humming with anticipation for the next book which I can already tell will amp up the tension even more :)
Pure aural alchemy - Duet narration forever!!

The last series I listened to by Meg Anne, The Mate Games was narrated by the same talented team, as well as a few others, so when I saw who Meg Anne had chosen for this series I just knew the series would fast become one of my favourites. The talent and voices of James Joseph and Shane East give me goosebumps both are so sexy and delicious, but the range they have means that their interpretations of the other male characters are just as impressive. Stella Hunter is always perfection personified, her accents, depth of feeling and pure talent mean that whatever the story, whomever the character she can do no wrong. I loved her interpretation of Effie she captured her character perfectly.
Now we just have to wait for the next book to find out what more the author has in store for Effie. Will we learn what is Kieran up to? If the next book is as full of dark forbidden fantasy as this one it will be worth the wait!
I was given this audiobook as a gift and am voluntarily writing my review.

There was never a slow moment in this story - Effie was such a strong heroine -while on her mission to find out more about her powers you get the pleasure to watch her grow into her own. While she's still young, has her flaws and still needs to be rescued very now and again - Meg Anne does an amazing job keeping you on your toes, constantly guessing and thrilled to find out what happens next.
The narration was perfect! Stella constantly blows me away with her ability to pour all of the emotions into any character. She made the strong, sassy Effie the heroine you always want to root for. Shane is brilliant as the guardian Lucian. And what can I say about James Joseph that hasn't already been said? James portrays Kieran fabulously.
Overall, I really loved the start to this story - I said it before but I cannot wait to listen to what Meg Anne throws at us next!
Angsty love!

To make it even more thrilling, we have a stellar narration cast. First it's Stella Hunter. This woman is the master of accents, and knows exactly the emotions to inflect to make us feel attraction, tension, fear and love. Next up we have Shane East who brings out all his voices, from evil to protector and creates a world easily capturing our imaginations. Last but not least, the talented James Joseph. Every voice, from old, and I mean very old to young, he makes each character real and believable. And it's in duet! Fantastic listen, and it should not be missed!
WOW! What a story!

The audiobook includes the prequel The Dreamer and the first book in the series The Keeper's Legacy. I really enjoyed having the prequel included since it gives Kiernan's history.
I liked that we got Kiernan, Effie, and Lucian's points of view throughout the book. It really brought the story to life. The book ended on a cliffhanger which wasn't a surprise since it's the first book in the series. I can't wait for the next book The Keeper's Retribution to be released on audio so I can get more of Effie's story.
Stella, Shane, and James did a great job on the narration. I look forward to listening to more of their work in the future.
I would recommend this book if you like fantasy romances.

🎧📚🎧 And for the fantastic narration, Stella Hunter, Shane East and James Joseph do an amazing job bringing these characters and their story to life. They have a complete understanding of the who the characters are and play their roles with perfection, giving each a voice that fits their character’s persona to a tee and are believable in every role they played. Stella Hunter plays Effie as the powerhouse she is, Shane East’s Lucien is smooth and tough, then switches it up sinister style with Smoke and Mirrors, James Joseph’s Kieran is charming and swoon worthy. These entertaining storytellers are top-notch narrators and versatile voice artists, their narration enhances this already brilliant story to another level. Thank you for another exceptional listen.
Terrific Story & Listen🎧 Brilliantly Fascinating!
