The Lightning Struck Heart / Tales from Verania, Book 1, Audiobook Online By: TJ Klune
Once upon a time, in an alley in the slums of Lockes City, a young and somewhat lonely boy named Sam Haversford accidentally turned a group of teenagers to stone.
This, of course, attracts the attention of a higher power, and Sam is pulled from the only world he knows to become an apprentice to the king’s sorcerer, Morgan of Shadows.
When Sam was 14 years old, he entered the Dark Woods and returned with Gary, the hornless gay unicorn, and a half-giant named Tiggy, nicknamed Sam of Wilds.
At the age of 15, Sam learns what true love is when a new knight arrives at the castle – Knight Ryan Foxheart, the best dream ever dreamed.
Naturally, things go to hell when Ryan dates the deplorable Prince Justin, Sam can’t control his magic, a raging dragon kidnaps the prince, and the king sends them on an epic mission to save Ryan’s boyfriend, all while Sam falls more and more. love someone you never got.
Or, so he thought.
I’ve always enjoyed TJ Klune’s work but this story has to be one of the best I’ve heard since I started listening to audiobooks. The author’s wit and writing style let me experience every range of emotions one could consider. The dynamic between Sam, Garry and Tiggy is amazing and the love between Sam and Ryan can be felt (physically) through words. Adding to the grandeur of the words is Michael Lesley’s superb narration. Each character is animated with different vocals assigned to each character. What a great talent! Special is hardly a strong enough adjective to describe how wonderful this book is.
My new favorite. I must have this author and narrator, there must be more. Addicted to this story, I adore the amazing Sam, Ryan, Tiggy and Gary. I laughed, felt moved, and listened to this wonderful story hauntingly. I was listening to this story while walking my dog and got a few ‘Oh that chicken is crazy’ look. Can’t help but laugh listening to Sam n Gary snip. I dare someone not to laugh when they hear this absolutely amazing story.
