Castle Town

By: Anya Merchant

Narrated by: Giancarlo Herrera, Hannah Schooner

The king is dying and Prince Makoa wishes to replace him. The mighty Heralder King of Osteanus is privy to many time-honored traditions including the right to call upon the four underqueens as consorts.

But Makoa is only one of many dozens of competing princes eager for the same prize. To complicate matters even further, the woman who raised him, Underqueen Avina, would be amongst his consorts were he to succeed.

When ambition and desire conspire, a young prince finds himself straying from the beaten path. The normal rules don’t apply to royalty, after all.

Castle town

Underdogs of the world unite! Story has some enjoyable characters, most of the best ones are societies underdogs. Give it a try.

Awesome

Really great work and the story kept me engaged from beginning to end but i do have to say that until literally the last moment i didn't see how the MC would wim the throne because until that moment i thought that while the character was well done and likeable he was useless in combat and political maneuvers but i will definitely buy the next book in the series

Great all around

Great voice acting, fun characters, great dialogue, genuinely funny moments, and a pretty good story

5 stars

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟I hope there are more books to come in this series! The MC is great along with a really good supporting cast! The story is captivating! The narrators also do a good job of bringing the story to life! Great job Anya Merchant!

Outstanding

Very good book. Unbelievably amazing narration and Anya was awesome as always. I highly recommend

Anya is one of my favorite writers

All her books are a great read. My fourth series from her and as good as all the rest. A+

S-Tier Female Narration

For the rest of the series, please let Hannah do all the narration with Giancarlo doing only the male dialog. She's a literal virtuoso. Click "Helpful" if you agree.

This author's secret sauce is his to ability dial down the inherent cringe factor of the genre with believable lifelike character interactions. It's a magic trick to make this guilty fun accessible to cringe sensitive listeners. The voice and performance of the female narrator is crucial to selling the magic trick. Male narration of erotic scenes just doesn't work as well.

Another start to a great series...

I have been reading or listening to all Anya's books and find them engaging and exciting. My only complaint with Castle Town' is having to wait for the next book. I highly recommend this series...

Extremely enjoyable

This is the first book I’ve listen to by this author. The characters were well written, especially the MC who continue to grow throughout the book
The surrounding cast of characters were also flushed out well, each with her own unique attributes and personalities.
The plots and subplots in the book were interesting and wove together to form a thoroughly entertaining tapestry.
I highly recommend this book.

Half a book.

It's pacing is torture as this book was only to be a set up for other books. The beginning of a book that drags on stretching what world normally be the start of a character coming into his own. the book should have been half the length then added to the story of the next one to come.
it's a good book drug down by pacing of a book with twice its length making it a frustrating listen. He sets up goals but does nothing about them at all. for all of those to happen in the next book I recommend waiting for the next book to be out before reading it as it should have been to start. It's worth reading but be prepared to be frustrated if you try before you can listen to the next one.
