Publisher Description

Sera Skohlidon longs for adventure, to be like the brave crusaders of lore. In her guarded imagination, fauns have rejected the Royal Coven, the Coven’s magic, and the questionable trades faunkind makes for it. One day, her quest for answers unearths a family secret that draws her to the heart of the Coven's malfeasance. With the help of a shapeshifting deadringer, Sera embarks on an epic journey that sharpens her self-image, emboldens newfound confidence with a dashing, cavalier classmate, and levels the magical playing field.

This e-book features 34 full-page illustrations and beautifully considered typography throughout.

“A huge thank you to NetGalley for providing me with an advanced copy of the audiobook version of Belly of the Beast in exchange for my honest review! This story follows our FMC, Sera, as she embarks on an action packed adventure to try to discover where magic originates. Along the way, she meets a few very interesting and fantastical characters - some of whom join her in her epic quest. I personally feel that this book is a good mash-up of fantasy and science fiction. While the book's premise and characters are more fantasy-esque, the actual storyline is heavily saturated with sci-fi elements including space, technology, and even one-wheeled motorbikes. So... Would I recommend the audiobook? The short answer is yes. The longer answer is a bit more complicated. First of all, the audiobook has multiple narrators and is very similar to a graphic audiobook. If you're unfamiliar with the term, it is basically a full cast with background music and sound effects. Some people like this, but I generally avoid them as I find the background sounds to be a bit distracting. That said, the volume difference between the narrators and additional sounds was well balanced and did not make hearing the narrator difficult. I have seen in other reviews that the non-audio version has illustrations, which I think would enhance the reading experience, so if I were to read another book in this series, I would probably opt for the non-audio format. Overall, though, I would say I enjoyed the book. It was a solid start to the series. It is appropriate for all ages IMO, but some of the action may be a little intense for young children. I did enjoy that I could listen to this even with my kids around as this particular book wasn't riddled with language or spicy situations. I'm sure my earbuds enjoyed the break. Lol!”
