About this listen

From World Fantasy Award-winning author Fonda Lee comes an epic fantasy fable about the pursuit of obsession at all costs.

Ester’s family was torn apart when a manticore killed her mother and baby brother, leaving her with nothing but her father’s painful silence and a single overwhelming need to kill the monsters that took her family.

Ester’s path leads her to the king’s Royal Mews, where the giant rocs of legend are flown to hunt manticores by their brave and dedicated ruhkers. Paired with a fledgling roc named Zahra, Ester finds purpose and acclaim by devoting herself to a calling that demands absolute sacrifice and a creature that will never return her love. The terrifying partnership between woman and roc leads Ester not only on the empire’s most dangerous manticore hunt, but on a journey of perseverance and acceptance.

Persian Mythology Influenced Fantasy

This book is a novella so it's super short! The world building is fantastic and is a realistic fantasy world based on Persian (Iranian) mythology. The religion depicted in the book is based on Persian Zoroastrianism. I loved the sumptuous descriptions of Persian food (I'm half Persian so I was drooling lol). I thought the narrator was good, but there was a distance in the narration. I'm re-reading the physical book (love the cover) and I feel a lot more connected to the main character. So, if you like physical books as well I'd recommend that over the audiobook!
