Wooing the Witch Queen (Queens of Villainy #1)
Wooing the Witch Queen (Queens of Villainy #1) | Stephanie Burgis
1 post | 2 read | 2 to read
In a Gaslamp-lit world where hags and ogres lurk in thick pine forests, three magical queens form an uneasy alliance to protect their lands from invasion . . . and love turns their world upside down.
Queen Saskia is the wicked sorceress everyone fears. After successfully wrestling the throne from her evil uncle, she only wants one to keep her people safe from the empire next door. For that, she needs to spend more time in her laboratory experimenting with her spells. She definitely doesn’t have time to bring order to her chaotic library of magic.
When a mysterious dark wizard arrives at her castle, Saskia hires him as her new librarian on the spot. “Fabian” is sweet and a little nerdy, and his requests seem a little strange – what in the name of Divine Elva is a fountain pen? – but he’s getting the job done. And if he writes her flirtatious poetry and his innocent touch makes her skin singe, well . . .
Little does Saskia know that the "wizard" she’s falling for is actually an Imperial archduke in disguise, with no magical training whatsoever. On the run, with perilous secrets on his trail and a fast growing yearning for the wicked sorceress, he's in danger from her enemies and her newfound allies, too. When his identity is finally revealed, will their love save or doom each other?
'Stephanie Burgis is a fresh new voice and I can’t wait to see what she does next' – Ilona Andrews, No. 1 New York Times bestselling author

4 ⭐ This audiobook was lots of fun. This book is a cozy romance with a little spice. Really little spice. The archduke runs away from home because he‘s been held captive, and things aren‘t going well. His uncle has been running his country so he decides to seek the help of the queen in the neighboring kingdom and hopefully maybe take back his rule. However, when he‘s mistaken for a dark wizard, he thinks what a better place to hide then with

LibrarianRyan the queen next door. A big Library that needs organizing and a cast of wild characters makes this an enjoyable read. Both good and evil witches, some that sparkle rainbows, and some that are just up to no good. This was thoroughly enjoyable from beginning to end. This audiobook also gives you a preview of the next book that‘s out late 2025 early 2026. Yes I do want the next book. 4d
