À propos de cet audio
Arthurian legends are reborn in this upbeat queer urban fantasy with a mystery at its heart
The knights of the round table are alive in Vancouver, but when one winds up dead, it’s clear the familiar stories have taken a left turn. Hildie, a Valkyrie and the investigator assigned to the case, wants to find the killer―and maybe figure her life out while she’s at it. On her short list of suspects is Wayne, an autistic college student and the reincarnation of Sir Gawain, who these days is just trying to survive in a world that wasn’t made for him. After finding himself at the scene of the crime, Wayne is pulled deeper into his medieval family history while trying to navigate a new relationship with the dean’s charming assistant, Burt―who also happens to be a prime murder suspect. To figure out the truth, Wayne and Hildie have to connect with dangerous forces: fallen knights, tricky runesmiths, the Wyrd Sisters of Gastown. And a hungry beast that stalks Wayne’s dreams.
The Winter Knight is a propulsive urban fairy tale and detective story with queer and trans heroes that asks what it means to be a myth, who gets to star in these tales, and ultimately, how we make our stories our own.

disappointing
I was very intrigued by the premise, but the execution was not there. The amount of location name dropping is very cringeworthy. I wish I could say more about the story itself, but I what to put the book down by chapter 10 after getting annoyed with the constant name dropping.
There are multiple readers in this audiobook, and unfortunately, one has a noticeable lisp. The character he's portraying is named Wayne, and it took me a long time to realize that there wasn't an extra character named Wynn.
I hope that this author is able to continue writing and improve.
