Queen B’s Decree: I’ve been excited to read Aislan’s and Typhon’s story since the ending of Bold.
Typhon is such an interesting character. He’s socially awkward, terrible at his job, and would rather starve than learn to cook. And Aislan is now stuck living with him, after accepting a fae bargain meant for his brother. So the previous books you just think of Typhon as a villain…when in reality he’s just a lonely, weird, demi-god? And he wants a friend.
I definitely have a soft spot for Typhon, despite his flaws. He’s definitely on the morally grey end of the spectrum. I don’t know what it says about me, but Aislan was the weakest character for me. Apparently I am just drawn to the flawed villains 🤷🏻♀️. I did love the transgender representation though!
I enjoyed seeing their relationship evolve, as both characters personally grew and improved. And it was fun to revisit the magical fae world. The dragons were the best side characters and I wish I had one as a friend.
