Ballad: A Gathering of Faerie Free Audiobook Download by Maggie Stiefvater


Ballad is a debut novel by Maggie Stiefvater, the first in her best selling series, The Raven Cycle. Ballad tells three intertwined stories: Blue, a reclusive twelve-year-old boy who is taken from his mother and kept in the forest; Ronan Lynch, a darkly humorous 16th-century Irish Fae spy; and Raven, an American girl whose family has fled their lives to escape an ancient curse.

Ballad is the companion novel to The Scorpio Races, a fast-paced read about the island of Skaghane and its annual competition, the Scorpio Races. A Gathering of Faeries is a ballad that tells the story of Puck and Mab's daughter, Rowan, in her journey. The blog posts are numbered as well so you can follow along with the audiobook.

A Gathering of Faerie is a slow-burn, unsteady story that follows the life of an adolescent as he makes his way from high school to college. The narrator does not maintain any form of consistency. He slips in and out of timeframes, jumping back and forth without warning. Florian moves through his life with a sense of wonderment and joy, but his journey is full of sadness and loss as well.

Ballad: A Gathering of Faerie is the first book in Maggie Stiefvater's "The Raven Cycle" series. It tells the story of Raven, a sixteen-year-old who lived her whole life in the sleepy town of Blue Cove. After seeing a vision of her true love, she runs away from home and gets swept up into faerie court - but they don't want her there. After many adventures and twists, she finally finds her way back home to her family.

This is the story of a young girl who, when she reaches adulthood, realizes the world is not what she thought it was. She ventures to find the faerie folk and travels with them across the land; but does she find what she's been looking for?

Ballad is the first installment of Maggie Stiefvater's "Twilight" series. The story follows a teenage girl named Cinder who lives with her stepmother and stepsisters, who she guards with her life. One night she learns that the woman who birthed her is not actually her mother, but rather a fairy godmother who has taken on human form to protect Cinder from the vicious queen of the faeries.
