About this listen
Braiden Beadle’s craft shop is on its last legs, even though it’s filled with the plushest yarns and the finest fabrics. Nobody cares for crafts anymore, not since the dungeon appeared outside Weathervale. Adventurers have swarmed the seaside city, eager to discover the dungeon’s treasures…and not a single one of them needs any knitting needles.
Desperate to save his shop, Braiden prepares to brave the mysterious dungeon for its riches. But Augustin Arcosa, the Wizard of Weathervale, has deemed the dungeon a threat to his hometown. He wants to seal it away forever.
Armed with only his wits and his impractical magic of weaving, Braiden must convince the haughty and annoyingly handsome wizard that the dungeon poses no danger to Weathervale. And there’s only one way to be certain: they must explore its depths together.
Can an unlikely adventurer and a windbag wizard find common ground underground? Join Braiden, Augustin, and an evolving party of quirky colleagues as they embark on the cozy quest of a lifetime. A humorous, heartwarming fantasy adventure perfect for fans of Legends & Lattes, Howl’s Moving Castle, and Terry Pratchett.

Wizards & Weavers has a lot going for it – the worldbuilding is terrific, the secondary characters are well-written, and Braiden is a likeable, warm-hearted person with a dry sense of humour who only wants the best for everyone. But I struggled to get into it; the pacing is very slow (there is one chapter devoted entirely to the making of omelettes and scrambled eggs!) and it wasn’t until around the 75% mark that things picked up and the story really began to come to life. Also, if you’re looking for romance, you won’t find much of it here; Braiden is obviously smitten with Augustin, and I’m always up for a good slow-burn romance, but in this book it’s more like a no-burn (which was a bit disappointing).
Still, that last 25% together with the outstanding narration has me thinking I’ll proabably give the next book a try when it comes out in audio.
New cosy fantasy with fantastic narration!
