Plagued by misfortune, Ingrid Norling treks into the woods to clear her head. She emerges a monster-slayer, the shaken executioner of a creature so ferocious that even the king's strongest warriors could not destroy it. In a land that reveres swords and worships strength, this accidental heroism earns Inge an audience at court and an ill-fated prize: King Halvard impulsively adopts her and names her as his heir.

I loved this book! Inspired by Beowulf, it had a lovely mix of mystery and magic. I had a pretty good idea what would happen in general, but some of the details kept me guessing and I loved that! It felt a little like a legend passed down through the ages too, which was nice. It took me a minute to get used to the omniscient POV, but once I did it was seamless. I loved the characters and the world created by the author. Definitely recommend!

Tormented at home and bullied during her studies abroad, second-born Iona of Wessett hides in the quiet corners of her father's castle. Her art and music provide refuge, but her cruel sister Lisenn ever lurks like a monster stalking its prey. Such has been her life for 20 years. However, a promise of reprieve and retribution arrives when the neighboring kingdom of Capria proposes an alliance between their new crown prince and Wessett's heir to the throne. The treaty will rid Iona of the toxic Lisenn, and the potential groom is none other than her erstwhile bully, Jaoven of Deraval.

It took me a minute to get used to the narrator, but the story is fantastic and I really appreciated the protagonist as a character—strong despite so much abuse. Plus, it’s clean! Well worth a listen!
