“✒️📖ARC REVIEW📖🖋️ This book was a slow paced, but an interesting take on cozy fantasy, legal thriller, and girly your family sucks. We follow a housekeeper who cared for her elderly uncle (by marriage) after being widowed as she is fleeing with a magical sword-man to seek out one of the churches to help sort out her inheritance. The book was accurately described as Princess Bride inspired The lead female is just a bit older, but equally charming and smart. I would also say it reminds me of Monty Python and the Holy Grail. There are lots of comedic relief scenes, talking around themselves, and characters that come from vastly different backgrounds. Would recommend to anyone who is looking for something different in the cozy fantasy/adventure fantasy (they are basically on a ox wagon roadtrip or on foot for 90% of the book) genres. The characters and plot line are very well done. That being said I would have liked a map!! And maybe a picture of the group…would have been a lovely hodgepodge of a D&D party. I was provided a free advanced reader copy courtesy of TOR Publishing Group and T. Kingfisher via NetGalley. All thoughts are my own. #arc #advancedreadercopy #NetGalley #SwordHeart #T.Kingfisher #TORPublishing”
