Man, I feel your pain on this one. I looked everywhere for that audiobook a few months back. It's not on Audible, which was my first stop. I did stumble across a mention of it on a niche forum for grimdark fantasy, where someone said they thought they saw it listed on a site called Authors Direct or something similar? But the link was dead when I clicked it. Honestly, at this point, it might just not exist in an official audio format. Which is a shame, because the internal monologues in that book are intense and would be perfect for a good narrator. I'd keep an eye on the author's website for any announcements; sometimes these things get produced years after the initial release.
Finding an audiobook for 'Nashatra Forsaken' can be a bit of a rabbit hole because its availability isn't as straightforward as big-name titles. Last I checked, it wasn't on mainstream platforms like Audible or Google Play Books. My search led me to some smaller, specialized fantasy audiobook sites and even a few serialized fiction apps where indie authors sometimes put out their audio versions. I recall a fellow listener in a forum mentioning they found a fan-made narration on a platform like Spotify, but the quality was inconsistent and it got taken down a while back. It's one of those books that's built a dedicated but small following, so the official channels haven't fully caught up yet.
Your best chance might be to reach out directly to the author or publisher if they have a social media presence. I've seen some creators use services like Findaway Voices or distribute through their own Patreon or website for their backlist titles. It's a bit of a waiting game, honestly. I ended up reading the ebook because I got tired of hunting. The story itself has this dense, almost melancholic world-building that I think would translate really well to audio, especially the dialogue between the protagonist and the spectral guide character. Maybe someone will pick up the rights for a professional production if enough people show interest.

When he invites Sloane to his eighteenth birthday party, his family is less than pleased.

A few years later, after she turns 20 and is able to identify her mate, Piper begins to struggle with stomach pain. She assumes that the pain is caused by the herbs she is taking to mask her identity.

My mother was a traitor. To my pack, I am no better.
I'm used to being overlooked. I've been unwanted from the time I was born, and my pack, River Crest, made it abundantly clear every chance they could that I was not welcome. No one and nowhere was safe. I've spent my entire life alone, with no family, no friends, and now, no mate.
At 24 years old, unmated and unwanted, I've accepted that I must be one of the mateless. Wretched, forsaken wolves who are cursed to live out their lives alone. Or worse. The legends and histories claim that being a mateless wolf is worse than death. They suggest choosing a mate and forming a bond before madness sets in or the pack rejects me.
But I've been rejected. I'm used to the feeling. I thrive in it. Because the more they push me away, the less pain and humiliation I have to face. If I can make it another year unmated, I could face banishment, and I'll finally be free. That's my goal. And I'll be damned if I let anyone get in my way. Even my mate.

Nilayah and Jordan Monroe were born into power—the daughter and son of Alpha Dante and Luna Catalina, destined to one day lead their pack side by side. Raised as equals, trained as heirs, and bonded not only by blood but by purpose, their futures seemed written in stone. Until the night everything changed.
At the inaugural ceremony meant to mark the beginning of their shared rule, Alpha Dante delivers a shocking decree: Jordan alone will ascend as Alpha. In a single moment, Nilayah’s birthright is stripped away, her destiny rewritten without warning or explanation. Betrayed by the very family she trusted, Nilayah buries her pain beneath a hardened exterior, wearing her anger like armor as she continues to serve the pack that cast her aside.
But resentment simmers beneath the surface. And when Nilayah returns from a grueling mission, only to have her father attempt to control the remnants of her life, she reaches her breaking point. Refusing to be caged by expectations or diminished by rejection, Nilayah makes a bold choice—she leaves her pack behind, stepping into an uncertain and dangerous world alone.
Fate, however, has other plans.
Captured by a rival pack and held against her will, Nilayah finds herself at her lowest—stripped of her freedom, her title, and nearly her hope. Yet even in captivity, her spirit refuses to break. And within the shadows of her imprisonment, she discovers something unexpected… her mate.
Maiden Blackstone.
A powerful and enigmatic Alpha, Maiden has long vowed never to take a mate, burying his desires beneath discipline and control. But the moment he lays eyes on Nilayah—the fierce, defiant female Alpha who challenges everything he stands for—his resolve begins to crack. Drawn to her strength and haunted by the bond between them, Maiden wages a silent war within himself.

Years later, when Ethan’s new mate fails to bear him an heir and the pack faces a new threat: Ethan’s exiled uncle returns to claim the throne, Ethan turns to Alpha Draco’s powerful pack for an alliance in order to save his pack. Alpha Ethan then uncovered the devastating truth Nova has kept hidden for ten years. And now, he doesn’t just want his child back — he wants Nova, too.
Will Nova be able to cast aside the new life she had built for an alpha that had once shattered her life, or will she choose to give him just a drop of his own medicine?

Looking for the right audio experience for 'Nashatra Forsaken' can be a bit of a quest, especially since it's not a mainstream blockbuster. My own search led me down a few paths. First, I always check the major retailers like Audible and Apple Books—they often have exclusive deals with publishers, so if there's an official release, it'll be there. For this title, I found it on Audible narrated by a voice actor named Gareth Wren. His performance is what really makes it stand out; he nails the gritty, weary tone of the protagonist in a way that pulled me right into the story's bleak atmosphere.
If you're looking beyond the big platforms, sometimes authors or small presses sell audiobooks directly through their websites. I didn't find that to be the case here, but services like Libro.fm, which supports local bookstores with their audiobook sales, are also worth a quick browse. The quality of an audiobook hinges so much on the narrator's interpretation, and for 'Nashatra Forsaken,' the somber pacing and distinct character voices in the version I listened to were spot-on. I ended up getting it through my Audible subscription after sampling a few minutes, and the production quality was crisp and professional.
