Über diesen Titel
Two new apprentices. One charming engineer. A potential battle with both sea serpents and evil sorcerers.
When Sorcerer Adrien Danvers takes on a job that leads him into the slums of England, he never imagined he'd end up with not one but two apprentices. Despite his doubts about himself, he's the only chance the two pre-teens have to escape their hellish life.
When Sir Hugh Quartermain contracts him to deal with the mysterious circumstances surrounding his home on the Isle of Man, Adrien finds the more time they spend together, the more his walls come down around the beguiling engineer—an unusual occurrence and a terrifying prospect.
As it turns out, this case is about to take a turn—a battle with both beast and man, the ultimate test of Adrien's willingness to accept help. When he does, Hugh proves to be a fierce protector and friend, more so than Adrien could've ever bargained for, and he finds himself longing for something he shouldn't.
Falling for his new friend is not a complication Adrien needs. (His matchmaking apprentices disagree.)
©2023 AJ Sherwood (P)2024 Podium AudioThe setting is lovely, a little dark and a lot uncertainty due to their orientation. Always living with the risc of being uncovered - very authentically and relatable written. I also got the whole "magic meets steampunk" vibe with all the talk about mechanics.
I loved, that they have so much real teen interactions, and that they have to grow into their little family.
It didn't bother me, that Hughe appeart rather late in the book, and the slow burn between them is very relatable considering the timesetting.
All the possibilities for their future make my fantasy run wild, and I can't wait to read, how they will manage. ❤️
Magically slow burning

Sadly this book does absolutely nothing with this. whatever obstacles the main characters could be faced with are removed almost immediately as they come up. the outcomes of any situation are blatantly clear from the get go and there are neither surprises nor plottwists. There is no tension between the main couple since the author took great pains to make leave no grey area on their feelings. All of this lacks nuance and there is no actual plot in sight.
For people who are into mindless fluff, this might be worth a read, anyone else might want to spent their time and money somewhere else.
The reader did a good job and has a pleasant voice.
No tension, no conflict, no story
