I loved this book. The perspective wasn’t quite exactly first person and not fully third person, but the narrative was done beautifully. I was quite sad the entire book for Irsa. It mentions a big event that happened to her, that made her go dark, it never mentions it fully just referring to it as the “it” event. The entire time I could see how this changed her and how much she really didn’t care. Then comes Kane and Astrid. I wanted to kill Kane myself for what he did. He’s your a typical “I’m gods gift to the world” arrogant cocky SOB. I wanted to strangle him and his “poor me it’s my fault” pity party. I absolutely loved when Astrid was introduced. He is Irsa’s perfect match in every way. He doesn’t care that she’s what she is. He supports her no matter what she does. I really hope to see more of their relationship blossom and see more of these two. I’m hoping we get more background of Irsa. What is “the event?” She keeps referring to. Can’t wait to read the next book!!

Her Blackened Soul by Isra Sravenheart is the first book in the Blackened Series. Lady Isra is a dark witch and the primary character of this book. I enjoyed the idea of the story from the villain’s point of view. She is a dark character who has taken on powers that limits who can see her. I liked that the story is from a different view and that she is a relatable character despite being bad. The story kept me reading and wanting to know how this would work with Lady Isra and her powers. I am looking forward to reading more in this series soon.

Isra is a witch, but not just any witch. She’s a dark witch who wants to stay that way! Humans are a distration that she could live without, but she will help them when it suits her. Kane is a “virtuous” knight wanting help with the ladies, but he doesn’t want to do the work himself. He seeks out Lady Isra to make his dreams come true, however Isra can see through his wicked heart and punishes him! This is not your typical fairy tale story, but it does show that evil has it’s own sense of right and wrong. A new take on the evil witch and the morals of evilness

What a great dark fantasy book. Lady Isra is a witch who follows the darks arts she no longer wants love and believes it is pointless. Her path is to learn more magic, she hates humans because they are weak. There is so many twists and turns i could not put it down.

Her Blackened Soul starts with the enchanting story of a young Witch- Lady Isra of the Dark. Isra finds herself beguiled by the Darkness and happens upon a raven who becomes the companion she’s longed for. Isra Sravenheart does a wonderful job with her descriptions with her writing, with an acute attention to detail, the characters and settings can be clearly pictured while the story changes with different settings. She tells a story about a wonderful blooming romance, and has so much potential for continuing the story in her next books. Just like most first books in any series, it is a little bit slow and a little harder to get into, but even with the first sentence she pulls you into the wonderful world of Lady Isra and Astrid.

Lady Isra is a witch who has embraced the darkest parts of her soul, and become a truly fearsome witch indeed. She detests her human neighbours, comparing them to infected boils. However, she occasionally helps one of them with a spell or two, and so a brave few come to request her help. When she is warned that a man approached who meant her danger, she set to work to destroy him.
There is lots going on in this plot, which is engaging in seeing where the twists and turns will go. The characters are archetypical and so fairly easy to grasp. The story has an omniscient narrator which gave the impression of hearing someone tell a fairy tale, which fit with the storyline. I found this a bit frustrating myself, because I couldn’t truly feel like I was escaped into the story when the narrator kept reminding me of the distance. It did make sense for the genre though, and evoked a feeling of a bedtime story. It will be interesting to see where the story goes from here.

Her Blackened Soul was an interesting read, while I typically love paranormal romances I found this one a little more difficult to get into. While the story has a great premise there were times that I felt that the story lagged and I wasn’t able to get lost completely in the story. However Ms. Sravenheart did give me everything that I love in a paranormal romance including magic, drama, twists and turns, and more. Her Blackened Soul is based entirely on a villain which is one of the many reasons I did enjoy it, it’s the first installment in The Blackened series. Although it did have times that the story lagged I generally enjoyed Her Blackened Soul, Ms. Sravenheart’s character development was wonderful and I can’t wait for part two.

Lady Isra is a powerful witch who lives in a tower in the middle of the forest, she is as dark as dark can be and she is known for it, the local villagers say that she should be avoided at all costs, that she is wicked and evil and that she has power, beauty, control and authority, but she has a cold heart thanks to a lost love and the bitterness which has led her down this dark path, however, she adores nature and everything in it, apart from humans, she has no time for them, but they still come to her for help from time to time and she does just that, as long as they have no ulterior motives which would impact on herself. When she isn’t doing that, she is gaining knowledge and learning about the world around her, even though she casts an invisibility spell that only those with magical abilities will be able to find her in her self imposed isolation and this led her to her darkest spell yet, she ignores all the warnings from her peers and other magical beings and goes after the power of transformation, to merge herself with a dragon, to absorb its magic and keep it for herself, so she goes for a walk in the woods and does just that, she enters a trance-like state of meditation and the dragon approaches her, she speaks with it before plunging a dagger into its heart and after being covered in its emerald blood, she heads home to think about what she has gained.
As the days and weeks passed, Lady Isra and her surroundings became blackened in more ways than one, she is now feared by those around her, darker and more isolated than ever and she has no intention of changing any time soon, but that changes when she meets a python on one of her walks in the forest, as they share a conversation, they find out a little more about the others, Lady Isra feels a connection and kinship with the snake and so she agrees not to harm any of his kind and promises to stop by to converse with him again in the future. As she leaves, Lady Isra thinks about the conversation they had and the information about the stranger who will make themselves known to her, she wonders what his intentions will be and what will come about from them.
Time passes for Lady Isra and she has more conversations with her friend, however, she also makes another one when a raven appears and introduces himself as Astrid, he is from another land and wishes to assist Lady Isra in her plans, he knows she is powerful and dark and it hasn’t put him off seeking her out. As Lady Isra continues with her dark plans, Astrid is further drawn to the enigmatic witch and she is drawn to him, he is a magnificent animal and the darkness is as strong within him as it is within her. Where will the darkness take Lady Isra and Astrid and will they be able to travel on this dark path together, or will the darkness rip them apart? This is a dark romance with magic woven throughout as you follow along the path of darkness to find out where it leads.
Her Blackened Soul tells the story of Lady Isra. Lady Isra is a witch that has embraced the dark arts. She takes the power of a dragon and becomes more powerful. Isra is a dangerous witch that all young people are told to steer clear of. Her charm is captivating, and she entrances those she meets. In the case of Kane, a mere mortal seeking to be all possessive of women, Isra is enraged that he desires to hold that kind of power of women. She takes him in as her slave. This is the story of that time.
I found this book to be very strange when I started reading it. As time wore on, I became more captivated with the story and enjoyed reading the story. Though it was repetitive at times the story is truly enthralling.

Her Blackened Soul. (Blackened Series Book1) by. Isra Sravenheart.
I don’t know why, but I have a bit of a soft spot for villains, I find their stories interesting and usually there is a reason for the way they are, maybe they are misunderstood, or something traumatic has happened to them to make them hate the world and everything in it. I really enjoyed reading this book, a Dark Fairytale full of magic. It is set form Lady Isra perspective, the big bad Villain, only we get to see both sides of her. I truly enjoyable read, I would highly recommended.

Her Blackened Soul (Blackened Series Book 1) By Isra Sravenheart. This story was a bit outside my comfort zone but was enjoyable and I look forward to more in this series. This author is also new to me and I like the writing style. The characters are complex and pulled me in effortlessly and I found myself lost in the pages. When I first started I didn’t feel an immediate draw but I didn’t let that stop me and I’m glad to say it had my full attention quickly. It’s a very unique storyline that I for one haven’t seen before and I think that’s what I liked most about it. The storyline is paced nicely never feeling rushed. It’s a creative storyline that I’m excited to see more about. Four stars and recommended.

Her Blackened Soul is the first book in the Blackened series by Isra Sravenheart. This Fantasy/Fairytale is the first book I have read by Ms. Sravenheart. I was sucked in from the very first page. I had to keep reading to find out how it was going to end. Lady Isra is a dark witch who over time just drops deeper into the dark side. Taking the power of a dragon and spiraling into the darkness until she meets Astrid, the raven. The story flowed smoothly and the characters were well defined. I really enjoyed this book and look forward to reading the next book in this series.

Her Blackened Soul is the first book in the Blackened Series, and the first book I have had the pleasure of reading from Isra Sravenheart! The cover art is stunning, and the plot is full of potential for the books to come! With some parts of this story taking darker turns, I was kept on the edge of my seat as i continued to read. I do recommend this book, though it does progress a little slowly, it is still a very good book! I look forward to seeing where Isra takes this series!

Her Blackened Soul is the first book in the Blackened Series by Isra Sravenheart. This story is a unique fairytale from the “villains” point of view. I wish it was written in 1st-person point of view so we could really get in the mind of the main character, Lady Isra. I feel like there was a lot more telling instead of showing of events and emotions. I like that Lady Isra owns the fact that she is evil and doesn’t really care what others think of her. I would like to see more character growth, but that may come in later books in the series. The story kind of ends on a cliffhanger, so I’m hoping Lady Isra finds herself with more love in her heart.

Her Blackened Soul (The Blackened Series Book 1) by Isra Sravenheart This is my first book by this author but it won’t be my last. Its a very dark, mysterious book. A different take on fairytale stories where the villain is the main character. Lady Isra is a very powerful witch with a black heart but she also has depth to her. Due to past relationships she has major trust issues and maybe even anger issues. Isra hates humans because they have feelings and she especially hates anyone weak. When Kane approaches her for help she offers it but in has conditions. Will she end up killing him? When the humans send her on a trip she meets Lillian, Kane’s fiance and Lillian may change Isra’s opinion of some humans. Astrid is Isra’s closest friend and he is her eyes and ears to protect her. What will Isra do to Astrid? Will she let her live or will Isra have a change of heart? This book was so vividly descriptive that I felt like I was in the forest with them. Read Her Blackened Soul to find out what happens.

I really liked that the book was written from the perspective of the dark witch. Lady Isra’s character and the dark world she lives in reminded me of all the fairy tales I used to love reading about as a child. The story was well written and kept my attention. This is the first book I’ve read by Ms. Sravenheart and and I’m sure I’ll be checking out her other books.

I will start with I absolutely loved this book’s cover. It had all the colors and the eye grabbing graphics to pull me in without even reading a word of the synopsis. Isra Sravenheart is a new author to me so I decided to go in blindly off the basis of the cover. While this book does have a great idea behind it, the villain is our main character and we see the good and bad sides of her so we can make an informed decision on whether to like her or not rather than just knowing she is a villain. I like the idea and the dark fantasy version of it as that is honestly some of the only times I enjoy reading fantasy. This book just unfortunately for me never really took off for me the way I had so hoped it would. I would be very interested in seeing the other novels in the series that are available though. Maybe as we go things get stronger in the pacing of the books? I enjoyed this enough to give it four stars but I do hope that the next few coming up has just a bit more oomph to the books. I want to be whisked away into the dark worlds the author is trying to portray and hope to be soon!

Her Blackened Soul (Blackened Series Book 1) by Isra Sravenheart
I enjoyed this book. This story has originality, magic, fantasy, romance, and wonderful characters. Lady Isra is dark and evil, and she likes it that way. She prefers to be alone and away from humans that she feels are inferior to her. The relationship between her and her companion Astrid was interesting and I enjoyed reading about it. The author did a wonderful job in the details especially when Lady Isra would walk in the forest, I felt like I was right there in it. I would have liked to know what became of Romeo. This is the first book I have read by this author and it will not be my last. I recommend this book.

This is my first book by Isra Sravenheart. This is a fantasy style book leaning to the “dark-side” of witches. It was an interesting take on a “villain’s” point of view. Our main character’s name is Lady Isra of the Dark. She is very knowledgeable in all things magical. I’ll be interested to see where the author takes this story in the second book.

If you are into fantasy stories, you will like this one as well. I would classify this story as a dark fantasy romance story. The story is told from the Evil Witch. It wouldn’t be a good fantasy story without one. Lady Isra is the evil queen. She knows that she is the evilest queen in the land. She has made herself unavailable unless you were magical. Could you even imagine casting a spell so no one would take an interest in you? Along comes Astrid, a raven. He helps Lady Isra find her heart. The characters are complex and believable. I felt like I was right there with Lady Isra. Will Astrid turn Lady Isra’s heart into someone who is can be loved? Will Lady Isra let her guard down or will she punish Astrid for trying? I highly recommend this story to see what is awaiting Lady Isra.

I give Her Blackened Soul (Blackened Series Book 1) by Isra Sravenheart, 4 stars.
This reads just like a fairytale for adults. Not just the story itself since it is about a “wicked witch”, but also in the way it is written. It is a fun story with interesting characters you meet throughout the book. The story also keeps you guessing. There were a few things I did not see coming.
This was a fun, interesting supernatural/fairytale read and if you are a fan, this book is for you.

Her Blackened Soul is the first book in the Blackened series.
I will be honest; I struggled a bit with this book. I LOVE the premise of the story. It has a lot of potential. I gave the book four starts for creativity and originality. What I had a difficult time with were the parts of it that were slow-moving. I felt like the book didn’t have a steady flow to it.
Her Blackened Soul is written in fairytale tale style, but from the villain’s angle. I am a fan of dark fantasy so I enjoyed that aspect of the story. Overall, I feel like this book could be fabulous with a little bit of added depth and removal of some of the more repetitive parts (i.e. the constant reminder of Isra’s evilness).
Even though I had a challenge with this book, I’ll probably check out book two to see if the writing has progressed. It may be that this book, because it is the first in the series, is a little bit rougher and things will polish up as it goes forward.

Her Blackened Soul (The Blackened) by Isra Sravenheart is about a villainess who is a witch and very, very dark witch at that. It is a dark fairytaleish type story even as dark as the Grimm brothers. Not that this bothers me, I like dark and twisted sometimes but only if it is done right. For me the characters didn’t quite have the depth and growth I would have liked, and I found the constant reminder that our villainess was bad and had a dark soul a bit too much. I also found the story to be slow and found myself wandering whilst trying to stay focused. Just because it didn’t live up to my expectations, I have high standards, does not mean it will not for others, so please give it a go as it is an original concept.

Her Blackened Soul by Isra Sravenheart was a good book, but not great to me. I expected much more from reading the synopsis, and I was just a little disappointed in what I got. It wasn’t a bad book to read, it was just very slow to me building the story up, and it read so much like an old fairytale, but it wasn’t as short as a fairytale, so it just made it seem that much more drawn out. The characters were great and it had a great storyline and plot, it just wasn’t what I expected going in to read and I guess that just threw me off a little bit. I did enjoy reading this book however, and I do want to read more from this author in the future.

Her Blackened Soul (The Blackened Series #1) by Isra Sravenheart
This is the first book that I’ve read by Isra. This was a wonderful read. This fantasy had me in the world of Lady Isra. This is the first book in The Blackened Series.
Isra, a dark witch, is learning more of her powers. She shields herself from the humans eyes so she can move about. She no longer believes in love. The quote I choose for Isra is: “No, I will not stop. I will not give my magic up. I will not surrender any power, no matter what ! But on a more humorous note, I am much better than what I used to be. I have control; I can do what I want. Like you said, you never asked for this job, so go back to your army of golden messengers and leave me be.”
Kane, a human, can see through the shield. He knows he shouldn’t seek her out, but he does. When he learns she’s not going to help him with what he wants; he knows he’s in for it. The quote I choose for Kane is: If I survive this, by God I will change my ways. I will be a better man. I will be the warrior my father wants me to be. I will be good. I will do good. But only if she doesn’t kill me first.
I highly recommend this for anyone who loves Fantasy. This will leave you on the edge of your seat wanting more.
Her Blackened Soul (The Blackened Series Book 1) by Isra Sravenheart 3 Stars
This story is about a witch who gets revenge on a selfish man. It had a very fairytale vibe to it. The thing that I liked the most about the book is that the main character was a villain. Unfortunately, the characters were flat. Had they had more depth maybe I would have enjoyed it more. I found the story slow and quite repetitive. The witch constantly said how bad she was and how dark her soul was. The narrative felt like it was someone reading a story to a child.

This is the first book in the Blackened Series. Its a great story filled with adventure, fantasy and romance.
I loved the fairytale feel to the story and it was unique in the fact that the story is from the side of the ‘villian’ and not the hero, Prince or Princess. I loved the characters they were easy to feel attached too. The story is easy to read and keeps you hooked.
Lady Isra is a witch who over the course of time due to heartache and the attitudes of the people around her has turned into a dark witch who’s only plans is to cause death and destruction. That is until she gets told about a man seeking her out.
What the man whats and who he is she doesnt know but her immediate reaction is to get rid of him. When he arrives however her plan changes and a whole new adventure begins.

I was fascinated by the premise of this fantasy and anticipated enjoying a walk in the dark. Sravenheart did not disappoint. I really enjoyed getting to know Lady Isra in these pages and getting to know our dark villain better. And see her as more than the darkness she embraces. A unique take on the witch genre and a storyline I felt had a solid voice and steady pace. I am glad to see this is part of a series and look forward to reading more!
