About this listen

Captain Tristan Kelley enjoys the luxuries of Regency service, as well as the pleasure of his prince's bed. It's an easy life, if not a happy one. When the prince decides to take a trip through the perilous Blind Space, Tristan must go with him, but somebody in the prince's guard is a traitor.

Blind and held prisoner, Tristan finds himself at the mercy of Valero, a pirate who bears no love for the Regency. Valero is determined to seduce Tristan, and Tristan fears his resolve won't last. His duty is clear, but so is his desire. As the days tick by with no word or ransom from the Regency, Tristan begins to question what loyalty means to his prince, the Regency he's sworn to, and to the man who holds him captive. He begins to realize that being a prisoner may actually set him free.

Didn’t live up to the great premise!

Valiant captain of the Regency Space Guard, Tristan Kelly, and his men is sworn to protect the pampered prince during a trip through Blind Space. He’s not sworn to sleep with the prince but it seems to be part of his job description. When the spaceship is attacked by pirates and Tristan and his men are temporarily blinded and incarcerated, things look grim. However, chief pirate, Valero, takes a shine to Tristan and works to compromise him in more ways than one. This is the first book by Marie Sexton I haven’t given 5 stars, I’ve checked. Good science fiction makes you think but there’s no worldbuilding here. In fact, except for the spaceship and stun gun, there’s very little sci-fi at all, certainly no underlying philosophy to consider. The core of the story, the blind play and the romance are very prosaic (check out Kept in the Dark by HL Day for how it should be done right). I love John Solo’s narrations but even he struggled to make the audiobook shine for me.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
