About this listen
Long-listed, CPL: Chicago Public Library Best of the Best, 2024
This program includes a bonus conversation with the author.
"Maya Saroya gives an expressive performance in this thrilling historical fantasy filled with vampires, action, romance, and tea."—AudioFile on A Tempest of Tea
From the New York Times–bestselling author of We Hunt the Flame comes the first audiobook in a hotly anticipated fantasy duology teeming with romance and revenge, led by an orphan girl willing to do whatever it takes to save her self-made kingdom.
On the streets of White Roaring, Arthie Casimir is a criminal mastermind and collector of secrets. Her prestigious tearoom transforms into an illegal bloodhouse by night, catering to the vampires feared by society. But when her establishment is threatened, Arthie is forced to strike an unlikely deal with an alluring adversary to save it—she can’t do the job alone.
Calling on some of the city’s most skilled outcasts, Arthie hatches a plan to infiltrate the sinister, glittering vampire society known as the Athereum. But not everyone in her ragtag crew is on her side, and as the truth behind the heist unfolds, Arthie finds herself in the midst of a conspiracy that will threaten the world as she knows it. Dark, action-packed, and swoonworthy, this is Hafsah Faizal better than ever.
A Macmillan Audio production from Farrar, Straus and Giroux.

Story
Zafira is the Hunter, disguising herself as a man when she braves the cursed forest of the Arz to feed her people. Nasir is the Prince of Death, assassinating those foolish enough to defy his autocratic father, the sultan. If Zafira was exposed as a girl, all of her achievements would be rejected; if Nasir displayed his compassion, his father would punish him in the most brutal of ways. Both Zafira and Nasir are legends in the kingdom of Arawiya - but neither wants to be.

The five most dangerous liars in the land have been mysteriously summoned to work together for a single objective: to kill the god king Joon. He has it coming. Under his merciless immortal hand, the nobles flourish, while the poor and innocent are imprisoned, ruined … or sold. And now each of the five blades will come for him. Each has tasted bitterness—from the hired hit man seeking atonement, a lovely assassin who seeks freedom, or even the prince banished for his cruel crimes.

Story
I have never been favored by the gods. Far from it, thanks to Zeus. Living as a cursed office clerk for the Order of Thieves, I just keep my head down and hope the capricious beings who rule from Olympus won’t notice me. Not an easy feat, given San Francisco is Zeus’ patron city, but I make do. I survive. Until the night I tangle with a different god. The worst god. Hades. For the first time ever, the ruthless, mercurial King of the Underworld has entered the Crucible—the deadly contest the gods hold to determine a new ruler to sit on the throne of Olympus.

All My Rage meets The Poet X in this electric debut that explores a Muslim teen finding her voice in a post-9/11 America. Nida has always been known as Mamou Abdul-Hafeedh’s niece—the poet who will fill her uncle’s shoes after he was wrongfully incarcerated during the war on terror. But for Nida, her poetry letters are her heart and sharing so much of herself with a world that stereotypes her faith and her hijab is not an option.

Story
Welcome to Tiankawi - shining pearl of human civilization and a safe haven for those fleeing civil unrest. Or at least, that's how it first appears. But in the semi-flooded city, humans are, quite literally, on top: peering down from shining towers and aerial walkways on the fathomfolk - sirens, seawitches, kelpies and kappas - who live in the polluted waters below. For half-siren Mira, promotion to captain of the border guard means an opportunity to help her downtrodden people. When extremists sabotage the annual boat race, violence erupts, as does the clampdown on fathomfolk rights.

Captivating
Perfect voice acting and a wonderful story. It starts a little slow but ultimately so worth the read. Very disappointed in myself for missing the twist but incredibly excited to see where this goes. I usually stick to smut but something about the art and the book jacket blurb sucked me in. I want to hate the author now that I’ve finished it but we’ll see when the next book comes out.

Great story, wish it was longer!
I loved all the characters and world building. I just wish it would have been longer so that the ending didn't feel as rushed. Can't wait for book #2!

Okay story, awful audio
The audio is AWFUL. The narrator reads in a near monotone voice, lacking a change in inflection and tone for different characters and scenes. I could not tell which character was speaking or if it was the third person narrator. During scenes of action I expect a tempo change, but there were none.
I enjoyed this book but I didn’t love it. The simplicity of the story makes it a teen book, or what YA used to be. The plot, world building, and depth of characters just brushes the surface. Nothing is truly flushed out.
The author states she is a “pantser” and it shows. There are timelines that don’t match up and some holes in the world building.

One of the best books ever
Ugh I can’t even tell you how much I enjoy Hafsah’s writing. Her characters are so deep and enjoyable, so realistic, you feel like you’re part of their story. This book had a great place and a GREAT twist. Best enjoyed with a nice streusel and cuppa. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
