About this listen
Once, there was the Truth, which shone as pure as Gold.
Then, came a Beast, who devoured Winter's lights.
'Twas Gold versus Poison
Darkness versus Light
King versus Beast
Day verses Night
A Beast as Dark as Night is the epic finale to The Winter Souls Series, a Christmas themed collection with holiday myths and folklore. Ideal for fans of The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis, and The Nutcracker and the Four Realms by Meredith Rusu and Ashleigh Powell.

Story
The Quarrel of Sword and Bone was a death sentence for anyone who stepped into the arena with the deranged Queen, whose soul had crisped to frost in an age long since past. Sixteen-year-old Helen Bell understood tragedy better than most kids growing up—she knew what it was like to wear clothes from donation bins and be mocked by the beautiful girls in school. She thought these brutal experiences made her ready for anything.

"Wow, I loved this book! It was gripping, fast paced, and full of action, yet not lacking in heart. Highly recommend for young YA readers upwards."—USA Today Bestselling author Alice Ivinya

I LOVED THIS STORY
The narration was no where near as good as the first 2 books, but I will still listen again. This was the best series I have read/listed to in a long time. Jennifer Kropf's writing is wonderful.

The ending
It would have been perfect to create drama. These books feel rushed. The reader does not get the chance to each part. Too much fluff. The fantasy world is pretty much normal.
