The latest novel in the smash-hit Plated Prisoners by Sunday Times bestselling author Raven Kennedy

'Find me in another life. Find me in them all'

It all ends now. . .

But Every end is also a beginning.

I was supposed to die. If it weren’t for Slade, I would have. But he tore a hole the world I know and I went through it. To Annwyn. To home.

Annwyn is the realm of the fae, a magical place full of beauty and danger.

Here, I am known as Lyäri Ulvêre – the golden one gone. And there are people in this world who want to keep me that way.

But I am not that girl in the gilded cage anymore, and I won’t be used again. Nor stopped on my way back to Slade.

I am my own woman. And I will find him. In this world, or the next.

Critic reviews

This series is the gift that keeps on giving. Gold is an immaculate continuation of the Plated Prisoner series, full of breathtaking twists and heart-wrenching revelations. Raven’s writing never fails to transcend the page, puppeteering each word into a motion picture in my mind. The only problem is I NEVER want to leave.
So much beauty … So much growth … So much chest-battering pain … I wish I could read it for the first time all over again.

An emotional rollercoaster of a book that brings vivid and layered characters into a magical realm. The world building and pace is intricate and fast, this is a book you will race through
The angst. The heartbreak. The trauma. Slade's descent into his true villain era is everything. The combination of exquisite writing, magical characters, and an epic plot makes Plated Prisoner is my go-to romantasy recommendation for everyone I talk to, and Raven does it again with Gold.
Gold is more than just a story of our beloved gold touched girl but a story of survival, determination and love that transcends worlds. A must read for anyone who loves a villain who will stop at nothing for the one he loves and a woman who will show the world nothing can break her.
Praise for The Plated Prisoner Series
This series has stolen my heart, my breath, my regard for anything else. I've never been so immersed in a story before-never read characters that have felt so real. I've cried, laughed, screamed, thrown my kindle across the room, picked it up again, swooned . . . These characters, this WORLD . . . it's everything. Raven has written a story for the ages, destined to go down as one of the epics

This is one of those series that started off phenomenal, and only gets better with every subsequent book.
This series is amazing and I can't recommend it enough. It is one of the best New Adult Fantasy books out there.
TEN GILDED STARS! Remarkably original . . .and the prose, people . . . gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous

Like I said above these are two of the best narrators I've heard.
Slade's voice sounds a lot like Henry Cavill in The Witcher.
Great at accents and they sound like what I expected for the characters.

Love this series, it's the first one I've listened to, rather than reading and I wasn't disappointed. If I had a spare minute I stuck my headphones in. Raven is very descriptive, which helps build the world in your mind, as well as the characters and what is happening during the scene.

I'll be getting the 6th book as soon as I can! Now, excuse me while I download more of this series on audible 🤗

Best narrators I think I've ever listened to.

Absolutely invested in all the characters now! Villains, hero's, all of them! cannot wait to finish this series. The narrators are excellent, capturing each character perfectly and drawing you in. Brilliant!

Fab characters!

I couldn't put the book down, and ot would have been a 5🌟 if Raven hadn't dranged it on so much. the story was good, way too long, the various POVs felt like she was written a tv series script rather than a book.
I loved Slade's revenge was deliciously vicious, our golden lady finally found herself and decides to fight back, Queen Melina was insufferable, and I'm not totally convinced by her redemption story (it felt weir and wrong somehow). we find pit many truths. There isn't much spice and it ends on a major cliffhanger.
The narration was great? but I still miss the original narrator.

good but way too long
