Representaion During Books Counterpoint (Song of the Fallen #1)

It is the twilight of mankind. Depleted by generations of war with a dark race, the human kingdoms and their ancient alliance stand on the brink of extinction. The outlands are soaked with the blood of the fallen. The midlands are rotting with decadence and despair.

Elfkind, estranged by past crimes, watches and waits for nature to run its course.

And then the two collide.

Ayden's life has long been guided by two emotions: love for his sister, and hatred of all things human. When he's captured in battle, he must for his sister's sake swallow his pride and endure slavery in the service of a human prince, Freyrik Farr.

Freyrik's always known elves to be beautiful and dangerous, but never has one affected him as deeply as Ayden. Can his life of service to his people leave room for this attraction? Dancing on a dagger's edge between duty and high treason, Freyrik discovers that some choices can change a life, and some an entire world.

Between prejudice, politics, pride, and survival, Ayden and Freyrik must carve a new path, no matter how daunting. For nothing less than the fate of both their peoples rests on the power of their perseverance and their love.

Evaluate Of Books Counterpoint (Song of the Fallen #1)

3.5 starsI enjoyed this audio. Ayden and Freyrik had a lot of tension, but Freyik eventually wore Ayden down.Ayden and his sister are elves who were captured by humans (all the humans in the book were terrible!) and Ayden was so worried that his sister would be raped that he consented to be a sex partner for the prince.Prince Freyrick was ruling the country in his brother's absence but he was a much kinder ruler.Ayden was so distrustful of humans, but prince Frey eventually earned his trust.

I loved this book. I was putting it off because of the cliffhanger everyone was talking about but after finishing it, I'm really glad I read it. The cliffhanger wasn't as bad as I was anticipating, though. Or maybe because I knew it was coming that I didn't have such a problem with it. To me, it felt as if it was just a not so subtle warning that there will be a sequel to Counterpoint. And how glad I am about that. This book had everything in it that pushes my buttons. Hostage situation,

Audio Review This is my second encounter with the story, but it has been awhile. This time around was a cleaned up newer addition and the audio format.A gripping fantasy romance of two bitter enemies brought together when elf, Ayden, crosses the border into human lands to keep his sister from capture only to be captured right alongside her. Ayden becomes the human prince, Freydrik's personal slave. It is an intense battle of wills as well as a battle for understanding as the pair navigate their



OH.MY.GODS!!! I loved this book!!!This book was picked for me to read as a challenge and I dove in without reading the blurb or any reviews. I really didn't know what to expect other than that this was m/m fantasy and it had a cliffhanger. It also has one of the most beautiful covers I have ever seen.I found the World very interesting with the song and abilities of the elven people, the barbarism and prejudices of the humans, and the madness of the Ferals/Darkers. There was a bit of world

Counterpoint is book one of a two book epic story. The ending of this story is a cliffhanger with a few unresolved issues and definitely no happy ending in sight. This is perhaps why I had such a tough time with the story. On the one hand, the fantasy world is lovingly crafted with an eye for detail. On the other, I didnt particularly enjoy the storys focus on moderate violence, manipulation, humiliation, and hatred. This is a darker fantasy story that plays on the classic push/pull dynamic of

I fell asleep so many times during the audiobook that I just can't give it more than two stars. As a fantasy, it is serviceable but not particularly gripping. There are humans and elves at war, and some third race of dangerous animals. There is a m/m romance, sort of: the human king has eyes for his elf prisoner and there is some kind of hazily-imagined slavery kink going on that was not my thing at all. A highlight was the book's depiction of magic, which had to do with music. Overall, the
