About this listen

Prince Allen has trained his entire life to follow in the footsteps of his illustrious mother, who has made their kingdom one of the wealthiest and most influential in the empire. For the past few years he has trained to become the new consort of the High King. The only thing no one prepared him for was the stubborn, arrogant High King himself, who declares Allen useless and throws him out of court.

High King Sarrica is ruling an empire at war, and that war will grow exponentially worse if his carefully laid plans do not come to fruition. He's overwhelmed and needs help, as much as he hates to admit it, but it must be someone like his late consort: a soldier, someone who understands war, who is not unfamiliar with or afraid of the harsher elements of rule. What he doesn't need is the delicate, pretty little politician foisted on him right as everything goes wrong.

Loved the narrators voice. Story was enjoyable, loved the banter, espacially between the king and his brothers in law / friends.

Enjoyable story

Megan Derr always creates strong world's and surprisingly human characters. Her plots are often fairly tale esque but in a way that sweeps you along for the ride. I definitely enjoyed the King's Golden Tongue, although I found some of the writing/editting left something to be desired with words and phrases often repeated in the sentence following their first appearance.

Also the audio had some longer than expected gaps sometimes mid sentence which through me off a bit.

A fun listen

An enjoyable story and I liked the narrator. There were a few pauses in the audio bit tjey were few and far between and did not detract from the book as a whole.
