About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

A mind-blowing murder mystery on a ship full of magical passengers. If Agatha Christie wrote fantasy, this would be it!

For a thousand years, Concordia has been able to maintain peace between its provinces, protected by a wall known as the Bandage. To mark this incredible feat, the emperor's ship embarks upon a twelve-day voyage to the Goddess's mountain.

Aboard are the heirs of the twelve provinces of Concordia, each graced with a unique and secret magical ability known as a Blessing.

Except one: Ganymedes Piscero - class clown, slacker, and all-round disappointment.

When a beloved heir is murdered, everyone is a suspect. Stuck at sea and surrounded by powerful people without a Blessing to protect him, odds of survival are slim.

But as the bodies pile higher, Ganymedes must become the hero he was not born to be. Can he unmask the killer and their Blessing before this bloody crusade reaches the shores of Concordia? Or will the empire as he knows it fall?

I loved the book until the last few pages when it just sort of fizzled out. I’m not sure why I feel like that tho so feel free to ignore me. Grasshopper really is adorable though!

A murder mystery with magic.

Maybe a little bit too vulgar occasionally. Not being prudish, I just thought it interrupted the flow slightly.
Otherwise an absolute masterpiece in character development. Our hero is the worst and best person you could wish to meet.
All I can say is, read it, you will not be disappointed.
Interesting and humorous with the right amount of pathos.

In my top 5 of all time.
