Crimson Eclipse, The

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. When the stars fall and darkness rises, only their love can break the curse—or doom them all. The final battle has come. The shadow king has revealed his master plan: corrupt the celestial bonds themselves, turning every bonded warrior into weapons of destruction. Already, phoenix fire burns out of control. Dragons turn on their riders. The qilins have vanished. And the eclipse—the rare celestial alignment that happens once every thousand years—is only days away. Mei Lian, Empress of the Jade Empire, holds the fate of millions in her scarred hands. Corvus, the Shadow King's Crown, commands armies that could crush the world. Together, they are unstoppable. Apart, they will fall. But the curse demands a sacrifice: to break the shadow king's hold on the celestial bonds, one of them must sever their connection forever. No bond. No shared pain. No love. It's the only way to save the realm—and the one thing neither of them can survive. As the crimson eclipse darkens the sky and ancient magic awakens from its slumber, Mei and Corvus face an impossible truth: their bond was never a curse. It was always the key. But using it will require surrendering everything they are—their power, their identities, their very souls—and becoming something new. They began as enemies. They became lovers. Now they must become legends.
