About this listen

A year has passed since the Dark Wizard Myrin attempted to take control of the Kingdom of Verania. Though the scars of the final battle remain, Veranians have come together in unity in order to rebuild. Good King Anthony sits on the throne once more, with Morgan of Shadows at his side.

However, a king is not immortal. One day, Anthony will step down, paving the way for his son, Grand Prince Justin, to assume the throne. And Justin wants anything but.

Unfortunately for him, he finds himself with bigger things to worry about than just becoming the ruler of a country. At the celebration of the might of Verania and its people, a delegation arrives, led by a man who calls himself a magician. This man represents the king of Yennbridge, who has come to claim what was promised to him years before: the hand of the firstborn son of the king and queen of Verania. With his ridiculous friends at his side—Sam, Ryan, Kevin, Gary, and Tiggy—Justin sets out to make the visiting king’s life a living hell. Which, of course, backfires spectacularly, and when the dust settles, Justin finds his friends changed in ways he can’t expect, leaving him standing alone.

Except he’s not as alone as he thinks, given the king of Yennbridge will do anything to prove he’s worthy of the frozen heart of the Ice Prince.

Prince Justin has finally met his match. Let the games begin.

I was a little apprehensive at first because it's not part of the main story line but carries on from their Ever After in Justin's perspective. At first, I thought this would be damaging to the book but I found it oddly charming. The one thing that I have learnt from reading this is that everyone needs therapy.

Fantastic

This is a gorgeous book that weaves serious issues such as PTSD and 'what happens after the heroes win' with beautiful writing reflecting a character's journey to emotional vulnerability, all wrapped up in sumptuous humour. The character development of the previous books is great and it is such a good idea to have Justin as the narrator. There is a humanising and an identification with the character. And thank you so much for the laughter that gives the light to the shade. It is a well balanced book. I absolutely need a 6th instalment please.

Stunning, funny, and heart-breaking
