About this listen

A swordmaiden's hand is not easily won. Theseus, king of the Court of Knowledge, is desperate. With the barrier to the Realm of Monsters wearing thin and the chaos of Midsummer Night approaching, he needs to do something drastic to save his Court. If he doesn't secure warriors to protect his Court from the monsters, his people, the Great Library, and all the knowledge of the Fae Realm that it contains could be destroyed.

That leaves him with the choice to either bargain with another Court and hope the price isn't too steep or face deadly trials to win the hand of Queen Hippolyta of the Court of Swordmaidens, a court of mysterious warrior women.

Marriage seems like the better option, but the trials prove to be trickier than Theseus feared. Even worse, he finds himself drawn to Ariadne, the serving maid, instead of the cold-hearted Queen Hippolyta. Will he have to choose between his heart and saving his Court?

packs a magical, cosy punch

as usual of Tara Grayce, this was deceptively fluffy (while sneaking in deeper themes) and absolutely cosy (while saying quite a lot)

i want to call this a deconstruction of toxic masculinity, but it wasn't so much a deconstruction as it was a bloke going along and deliberately (and at some cost) making the right decision instead of the toxic one; a story where trust and faith triumph over hasty anger, pride, and toxicity--and the male pov really made that aspect shine

i wanted it to be longer so i could have had an even deeper and more nuanced look at the beautiful themes and deconstruction this one had going for it--but it's a novella. and for a novella, it was delightfully deep and deft in the few words it possessed

it was already a decent, satisfying read, and then the last ten minutes of the audio hit and just made it soar above what it already was.

packs a satisfyingly cosy punch
