Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
A mind-blowing murder mystery on a ship full of magical passengers. If Agatha Christie wrote fantasy, this would be it!
For a thousand years, Concordia has been able to maintain peace between its provinces, protected by a wall known as the Bandage. To mark this incredible feat, the emperor's ship embarks upon a twelve-day voyage to the Goddess's mountain.
Aboard are the heirs of the twelve provinces of Concordia, each graced with a unique and secret magical ability known as a Blessing.
Except one: Ganymedes Piscero - class clown, slacker, and all-round disappointment.
When a beloved heir is murdered, everyone is a suspect. Stuck at sea and surrounded by powerful people without a Blessing to protect him, odds of survival are slim.
But as the bodies pile higher, Ganymedes must become the hero he was not born to be. Can he unmask the killer and their Blessing before this bloody crusade reaches the shores of Concordia? Or will the empire as he knows it fall?

Murder mystery excellence
What a fantastic murder mystery and overall fantasy story! It’s filled with so much hope and explores so well how anyone can make a difference. It’s a great exploration of how people change, how kindness is often overlooked, and tackles really well depression and heavier topics without feeling preachy or unrealistic. Fantastic queer and disabled representation too! Overall a delight that I hope more people discover.

A murder mystery with magic.
I loved the book until the last few pages when it just sort of fizzled out. I’m not sure why I feel like that tho so feel free to ignore me. Grasshopper really is adorable though!

Fabulous
I enjoyed this book so much that I finished it in 2 days. The narrator was excellent, the twists I didn’t see coming and the ending was just perfect. I found this book from the author speaking about it on TikTok and I’m so glad I stumbled upon her video. I recommend this book to anyone who likes soft fantasy murder mysteries. The characters are all excellently written and fleshed out. 5*****

A great performance of a great book!
I had already read this book in hardback but the narrator was just so good I had to reread it in audio! Such a great listen! Truly remarkable performance of a really fun and engaging book!

Richly characterised story with amazing narration
Is it a locked room mystery? Is it fantasy? A romance? Yes! Nathan Foad's voice work really brings this cast of characters to life, whether it's the point of view character, chronic disappointment Ganymedes, his AI dragon servant Dumpling, or the mysterious Negüi, his distinct voices make the characters instantly recognisable. It's great to have a main character who is fat and loves his body, and it's clear that others find him attractive too. There are no 'default sexuality' assumptions, and it's refreshing to have a male character with tender and protective feelings for a lone six-year-old that he takes into his care without a second thought. Magnificent from beginning to end. This is definitely going to be on my re-listen list.
