Summary

It was a simple rhyme, a honeymoon folk blessing from the Riverlands, Minalan's home.

Seven bottles of mead to share.
For seven nights or more.
Each cup a toast, each sip a wish.
To bind their lives forevermore:
A bottle first for happiness, a bottle then for health.
A bottle for togetherness, a bottle next for wealth.
A bottle sipped for harmony, the equilibrium of desire.
A bottle savored for purest lust, which brings the marriage fire!

A bottle last for love to endure as long as life shall last,
saved for they who toast their love when five full years have passed!

But those seven bottles of mead were more than just a folk blessing. As Lord Minalan the Spellmonger began his honeymoon on a decadent river barge with his very pregnant bride, he had no idea that the occasion would have anything more complicated than eating, drinking, and making love on the agenda. But a frantic message from one of the Tree Folk indicating he and Alya may be in danger compels him to skip the lazy repose and travel to a far away ruin to speak with a possibly crazy Alka Alon mage - Lilastien, the Sorceress of Sartha Wood. After river pirates, trolls, and the sheer difficulty of adjusting to married life, the answers to the questions he has for her may be more than he, his wife, and his marriage can handle.

Come sail down the languid Burine river with the Spellmonger, and see how seven bottles of mead and a pregnant bride can turn a holiday jaunt into a potential interspecies disaster!

Note: This novella fits chronologically just before the events of Magelord, book three.

A fantastic listen

I love this series I really do, this book offers some nice insight into the main character and his wife. I really enjoyed getting insight into their lives. Learning more about important factions and history adds even greater depth to the story and world its set in.

As always the narrator was fantastic. I hope the other short stories and books will be made into audio books.

Great as always!!

I have enjoyed many book series on Audible, many vying for the top spot. The pairing of Terry Mancour's writing with the complimentary narration of John Lee has taken and retained the top spot for a while now.

Heart warming and exciting!

I’m a big fan of everything Terry has written for the Spellmonger Series so far and this is no exception. The backstory and excitement that this book has to offer makes it completely worth trying!
John does another exemplary job in performing the book, effortlessly brining to life the characters in that way he does!

I’d definitely give it more stars if they were available, I hope more of the Series’ Novellas and Shorts become available on audio! Awesome!

Optional short story

Enjoyable and well written but feels like it's an optional sidequest you could always come back to.

It feels like e a short story featuring the characters from the first 2 books that has little consequence but it's still great

worth a credit

i wouldn't normally use a credit on a 5 hr listen, but i enjoyed books 1 and2 so much.
im glad i did listen, it brought something extra personal to the characters without being mushy.

Amazing as ever

I am always very hesitant to buy ”inbetween books” but this is amazing and as ever I was entranced with the spellmongers story. The author has a Facebook page to which he posts a lot, which is amazing and really.makes it exciting when he remember to tell people it has been released 😂
