Amanda Joy is an upcoming author who has created some of the greatest works of literature and yet she is so unknown. She was born over 300 years ago in England, to a noble family then murdered by her grandfather, King James I.

A Queen of Gilded Horns has been a lifelong obsession and guilty pleasure of mine. I was captivated by its layers, secrets, and the way that it followed the heroine's journey of self-discovery and growth. So when I learned that [Keylor Leigh] has narrated my favorite audiobook of all time, I knew I had to listen to her take on this classic. [...] Her performance is perfect for the piece; she captures every nuance in Amanda's voice and makes you feel like you're right there with her on her journey.
I am a big fan of audiobooks and listened to this one long before I got around to getting it from the library. This is the story of a woman named Katima and her journey through life. When she gets married, her husband, who she barely knows, insists on buying her a crown for their wedding ceremony. The only problem is that there's no way for Katima to pay for it so she steals it and goes into hiding.
"If you love Elisabeth and haven't read this book yet, it is a must-read," Leigh said. "Eloise is one of my heroines. The fact that she's a woman who has made her own way in the world despite being born into privilege is inspiring."
