I received an ALC of the audiobook from the publisher and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
This was so much fun. It's well written and I enjoyed the relationship between Gwen and Isobelle. I thought they were both well developed characters, and the side characters were great too (especially Olivia - I love the trope of the person who is overly competent in mysterious things that hint at a dark past).
As medieval-style fantasy, It's certainly not immersive. The language is very modern and often (I assume deliberately and tongue-in-cheek) anachronistic, and the narrator very intentionally adds commentary and breaks the fourth wall. It's very in-keeping with the mostly lighthearted tone, and it worked for me most of the time, although sometimes it got to be a bit much.
All in all, a very quick, fun and sweet read.
