I actually listened to Kingdom of the Wicked on audiobook as they seem to be my go-to way of consuming novels at the moment! The narrator – Marisa Calin – is one of my favourite audiobook narrators of all time and has narrated books such as Daughter of the Pirate King by Tricia Levenseller, The Left-Handed Bookseller of London by Garth Nix, and The Librarian of Auschwitz by Antonio Iturbe. But when it comes to the Wicked, nothing is as it seems. Wrath claims to be on Emilia’s side, tasked by his master with solving the series of women’s murders on the island. Then Emilia meets Wrath, one of the Wicked-princes of Hell she has been warned against in tales since she was a child. Devastated, Emilia sets out to find her sister’s killer and to seek vengeance at any cost-even if it means using dark magic that’s been long forbidden. Emilia soon finds the body of her beloved twin…desecrated beyond belief. One night, Vittoria misses dinner service at the family’s renowned Sicilian restaurant. Even though I was sad about the story of Audrey Rose Wadsworth coming to a close, hearing that Maniscalco had a new series coming out that had to do with witches and Princes of Hell was just *chefs kiss*.Įmilia and her twin sister Vittoria are streghe – witches who live secretly among humans, avoiding notice and persecution.
There was something about her writing that kept pulling me in, and I loved every single character that she wrote. For those who know me, or who are regular readers of my blog, you will know that Kerri Maniscalco became one of my favourite authors of all time after I read the Stalking Jack the Ripper series.
