“This book feels like if Sarah J Maas and Anne McCaffrey had a baby and it was raised by Lisa Kleypas and Julia Quinn.”
— Netgalley reviewer
In the back of an ambulance, River Greer counts each breath her little sister takes until the final one: Sage’s body is giving up, ravaged by a mysterious illness. The late-night rush to the ER, however, turns into a surreal nightmare when River is abducted and ferried across the universe to the fabled Thule: a world beyond worlds, where Victorian mores collide with magic and Arthurian legend.
There, His Grace Hadrian Landevale of Caid is fighting losing battles of his own: to recover Isolde, his runaway wife, and against the blight that threatens the ichor, the source of all life on Thule. To add insult to injury, the captured fugitive Thule’s pathfinders just brought back from Earth is not his duchess but an eerie doppelgänger.
When it becomes clear that someone will go to any length to silence River, Hadrian offers his protection to this obstinate stranger . . . whose secrets might be the key to saving Thule’s most precious treasure: the light in its blood.

This was such a fun twist on Arthurian legend and I absolutely adored C. Monk’s writing style!

I have just finished the ARC and again I’m so glad I stumbled across Camilla Monk’s work. She is a very gifted writer and world builder. I just love her characters.

I never regret pre-ordering a Camilla Monk book. This insane romp of a fantasy (…) was everything I needed to restore my enjoyment of reading after a bad funk. (…) Insane. And spectacular.

Oh yeahhh. This might be one of the most refreshing books I’ve read this year yet. I mean can we get some round of applause on this one? (…) Definitely an easily recommended book to those who love plot-driven fantasy romance with vibrant worldbuilding.
