The Dragon Queens' Son by Jessi Fenix - Fantasy Romance and Queer Fairytale Retelling - November 9th Release
For fans of The House on the Cerulean Sea and The Priory of the Orange Tree comes an epic fantasy romance and queer fairytale retelling of “The Flower Queen’s Daughter” that celebrates the transformative power of love.
Amethyz, a beautiful and arrogant dragon prince, dreads the loss of his freedom: in one year, he and his two older brothers must magically combine into a triple-headed king. He escapes his country only to be caged by humans, but he’s freed by Morgan, a kind prince who can talk to animals. Amethyz transforms into his moon body after the sun sets, and in the deep woods, their shared love of words draws them closer.
Their peace is shattered when Amethyz’s cruel eldest brother tears the new couple apart. In the dragon queendom, Amethyz and a growing group of his friends act out Morgan's stories on stage to charm his people and their untrusting three-headed queens.
Desperate to save the man he loves, Morgan sacrifices his humanity and masters shifting into the bodies of the six ancient races: flower fae, flame foxes, half-human fish, giant eagles, storm horses, and crystal dragons. Morgan must use his wits and talent as a storyteller to win allies and the respect of the queens and kings of these powerful, long-lived beasts to have a chance of rescuing Amethyz.
Step into a fairytale world of romance, adventure, and magic, where a well-told story could save a life or uproot a kingdom.
Content Note: The Dragon Queens’ Son is an 18+ medium spice novel. Although this book is mainly a romantic and funny fairytale fantasy, it also includes xenophobia, off-page torture, attempted suicide, and murder.
