A very sweet and cozy romantasy adventure about Sol, a trans mage trying to find acceptance for his true self and healing from abuse in his past and Yohan, a cursed knight yearning for freedom from servitude to both his king and a darkness. 

It’s purely character driven which usually isn’t something I enjoy much, but the way this romance was just the most tender and loving thing. It was really organic and sweet though, and seeing the two men get to know eachother and grow to want more, they also support eachother. It’s a happy ending for both, despite the magical realism they both grow towards self acceptance and they lovingly start their new life together. I don’t think I’ve ever rooted for a couple more (that wasn’t fandom based that is). 

The only thing that might have made the book better was a bit more of a fleshed out world, but seeing as it’s just a backdrop to Yohan and Sols character growth, it didn’t bother me too much. Definitely a new comfort read of mine.
