A nice flip on the original tale, with plenty of old and new phrases. 

Lots of tropes in this! The chosen one, lost royalty, orphan raised as an assassin, childhood friends to lovers, lost friend to lover. If you love the first few Throne of Glass books by Sarah J Mass then you’ll love this one! <\spoiler>
