About this listen
No spaceship needed. Kira has a magic, traveling castle.
Pursued by her parents' killers, Doctor Kira Aist calls on her inheritance as Baba Yaga's great-granddaughter to create a House and escape Earth.
Plunging into the dangerous mysteries of Reality, she learns what it means to be a rare human sorcerer.
As strangers are drawn to her House, Kira becomes enmeshed in a diabolical plot to destroy Reality.
Who can she trust?
Of her new friends, some seek refuge, others power, and one just wants kitty treats.
In a Reality that includes cyborg elves and goblin space pirates, kobold gossips, and dinosaurian scholars, one human doctor must decide the price she'll pay for justice—and love.
The Uncertain Sanctuary bundle includes three previously published novels: The House That Walked Between Worlds, House in Hiding, and The House That Fought. It is a high-stakes, cozy fantasy that romps across the universe.
©2020 Jenny Schwartz (P)2025 Podium AudioThis is the tale of Kira, a human who is aware there’s magic in her family and despite being warned, uses it. When that goes badly wrong she finds herself escaping to a much broader reality, where she has to carve out her new role as a sorcerer.
I found some of the explanations of Reality and Reality’s politics, less interesting at times but the characters are what make the story. The author has done a great job of creating likeable, imperfect characters who are (mostly) doing their best in an imperfect world. I think Evander was my favourite, with Kira a close second and their relationship is lovely, the opposite of the unconvincing instalove you find in other stories. Gale and the others are also well drawn.
The narrator took a while, but grew on me. Her lower key narration fits the story well I think. She did a good job.
I enjoyed pottering through my chores listening to this and recommend it.
