Voyage of the Damned is an Agatha Christie inspired fantasy where the pitiable heir to the lowest province must stop a murderous plot to save his friends and country.
Even though the story revolves around a murder mystery, Dee's narration makes it feel quite fun and silly.
The magic was interesting, but the world-building was a little ridiculous. This book shows that a story can be a silly, goofy time but still have heart and be successful.
