The Sun Blessed Prince

Book One of A Tale of Two Crowns Duology

De: Lindsey Byrd

Narrado por: Joe Jameson

A battle-weary prince meets a reluctant assassin. But could their bond end their war?

SEPARATED BY WAR, UNITED BY FATE...

Prince Elician is a Giver. He can heal any wound and bring the dead back to life. He also can’t be killed, so is cursed to watch his country wage an endless war.

Reapers can kill with a single touch. When one attacks Prince Elician near a hotly contested battlefield, but fails, the Reaper expects a terrible punishment. Instead, Elician offers him a chance at a new life and a new name on enemy territory. Cat, as Elician calls him, hadn’t realized he could ever find something, or someone, to make life worth living — until the prince. Yet Elician is unaware that his enemy plans to turn his kindness against him until danger engulfs him in turn.

As the pieces of a deadly plot come together, featuring abduction, treachery and forbidden magic, tensions escalate at court and on the battlefield. The fires of conflict burst into new flame — but can those who wield the powers of life and death find peace?

Reseñas de la Crítica

ADVANCE PRAISE FOR THE SUN BLESSED PRINCE

"[A] rip-roaring queer romantic fantasy. The delicious romance and thorny court intrigue keep the pages turning, and a clever late plot twist shocks. This hits all the right notes." —Publishers Weekly starred review

"Bask in the rays of The Sun Blessed Prince, an ambitious and compelling tale of deadly court intrigue and star-crossed lovers. Thoughtful mythology and an unusually gentle queer love story set this book apart. It's a stellar start to a promising series." —Lucy Holland, author of Sistersong

An Enjoyable Mess

TBH, I don’t think I would have finished this one if it weren’t for Joe Jameson’s steller performance. He elevates every book he narrates. The story itself is fine, but if you’re primarily looking for a queer romance, you may be disappointed. It is a story of two kingdoms at war, but the ending is unnecessarily convoluted, and by that time, I was anxious for things to wrap up. However, if Joe Jameson is tapped to read the next book in the series, I’ll listen, if only for his lovely voice.
