"A skillful narration of this story, especially its humor, makes this a fun and enjoyable performance" —AudioFile on Can't Spell Treason Without Tea
Bookshops & Bonedust meets Our Flag Means Death in this cozy fantasy on the low seas, where lesbian pirates find out if enemies actually can become lovers!
Kianthe and Reyna are on the hunt for dragon eggs to save their hometown—but it requires making a deal with Diarn Arlon, lord of the legendary Nacean River. Simply capture the river pirate Serina, who's been plaguing Arlon's supply chains, and bring her in for justice. Easy peasy.
Begrudgingly, the couple joins forces with Bobbie, one of Arlon's constables determined to capture the pirate. Except Bobbie and Serina have a more complicated history than anyone realized, and it might jeopardize everything.
While Kianthe and Reyna watch this relation-shipwreck from afar, it quickly becomes apparent that these disaster lesbians need all the help they can get. Luckily, matchmaking is Reyna's favorite pastime.
The dragon eggs may have to wait.
A Macmillan Audio production from Bramble Books.

      Thorne’s gleeful if haphazard sequel to Can’t Spell Treason Without Tea feels less like a true cozy romantasy and more like a parody of the subgenre, ticking off millennial memes in a loosely plotted bit of shtick. Mage Kianthe and her fiancée, retired guard Reyna, improvise their way through implausible episodes of mayhem—featuring wannabe pirates, a naughty baby griffon, and “that’s what she said” jokes—as they strive to fulfill promises made in the first volume while en route to a wedding that will (presumably) occur in the third. Their bookstore/tea shop is consigned to the background, but the established ensemble of supporting characters is very much present, along with a new pair of lovers: Bobbie, a constable helping the women to hunt down the pirate Serina, and Serina herself, the plot’s primary chaos-maker. The writing is rough, the characterization fairly shallow, and the worldbuilding incoherent. As a somewhat overlong in-joke for the trope junkies, however, it’s entertaining enough.
