À propos de cet audio

A knightly fairy tale of royalty and dragons, of midwives with secrets and dashing strangers in dark inns. Taking the original French legend as his starting point, The Story of Silence is a rich, multilayered new story for today’s world – sure to delight fans of Uprooted and The Bear and the Nightingale.

“Utterly enchanting”
Publishers Weekly

There was once, long ago, a foolish king who decreed that women should not, and would not, inherit. Thus when a girl-child was born to Lord Cador – Merlin-enchanted fighter of dragons and Earl of Cornwall – he secreted her away: to be raised a boy so that the family land and honour would remain intact.

That child’s name was Silence.

Silence must find their own place in a medieval world that is determined to place the many restrictions of gender and class upon them. With dreams of knighthood and a lonely heart to answer, Silence sets out to define themselves.

Soon their silence will be ended.

I think James Macnaughton did a really great narrating this book as it was eerily similar to the way my inner voice first read the story and it’s characters. It felt like he was as interested/invested in the story as I was, which I really appreciated.

It’s my favourite book, so I may be a bit biased, but Silence’s story (ha) speaks to me a lot as an AFAB gender nonconforming person. I’ve struggled a lot with my identity and Silence’s experiences are part of why I’m confident in who I am now. Thank you so much Alex Myers, you’ve really helped me become who I am today <333

(I have not yet read the original poem but I plan to do it soon)

I’m not good at reviews, but it’s so good
