Book description
I just finished the audiobook of Tara Sim's Scavenge the Stars and I can't stop replaying it in my mind. If you're a fan of Sarah J. Maas or Leigh Bardugo, this one will feel like a double-dose of the good stuff-just with a twist that makes you wonder why the Count of Monte Cristo was never written in a darker, more maritime tone.
The story starts with Amaya rescuing a stranger from drowning. You'd think saving someone would earn her a thank-you note, but instead she lands on a debtor ship-imagine a ship that's basically a prison, and the guy she saved is the one who made her family's life a nightmare. That's a nice way to kick off a plot that's already packed with betrayal, revenge, and the kind of twists that make you question whether the hero is just a villain in disguise. Amaya's desire to get back at the man who ruined her family pulls her into the glittering, treacherous world of Moray, a city-state that feels like it was designed by someone who loves to mix old-world opulence with desperate gamblers. The setting is vivid enough to hear the clink of coins and the hiss of sea wind in your earbuds, even though we're limited to the description.
What keeps the audiobook humming is how Sim keeps the stakes high while juggling romance and identity swaps. Amaya's journey is not only about revenge; it's also about the truth of her past, and the fact that the son of the man she hates turns out to be an unexpected ally-or is he? The narrative doesn't hand you a tidy plot; instead, it throws you into a web where you're forced to decide who to trust, even if that means trusting your own instincts that may already be broken. That tension is perfect for a listening experience that keeps you on the edge of your seat, even if the narrator doesn't mention every subtle nuance of the setting.
And yet, there are moments where the pacing feels a bit... theatrical. The voice may lean toward the dramatic, which, while engaging, sometimes feels like a caricature of the high-stakes world Sim has built. It's almost as if the narrator is auditioning for a role in a grand opera rather than delivering a clear, crisp audiobook. For a few pages, the narration feels like a parody of itself, and the audience might wonder if the story was meant to be satirized instead of straight-forward. But this exaggeration, whether intentional or not, adds a layer of humor that makes the stakes feel even sharper. You're reminded that even a revenge-driven plot can't escape the absurdity of its own world.
All in all, Scavenge the Stars is a lively, audibly engaging read that turns the classic revenge tale into something both familiar and oddly fresh. It's a strong first book in an upcoming duology and will leave you eager to hear how Amaya navigates the next set of deceptions-especially when you're listening to the dramatic, slightly over-the-top narration that, while not flawless, brings a mischievous flare to the story. If you enjoy high-stakes adventures that are equal parts romance, deception, and a splash of political intrigue, give this audiobook a spin; it will keep you hooked and laughing (and maybe a little annoyed) until the very end.
