“That man was remarkably well-endowed,” said Aurienne.
“They call him the Clydesdale.” […]
Aurienne, still watching the Clydesdale over her shoulder, asked, “What do you suppose he does with it when it’s not erect?”
“Drapes it round his neck, like a feather boa,” said Mordaunt.

Ah yes, hitting. The thing that knives are famously used for.
(This is the first sentence in the book. Literally its best foot forward is this malapropism.)

So. Erdbeerkuchen und ein paar Seiten lesen. Osric entwickelt die ersten - für ihn sehr überraschenden - positiven Gefühle für Aurienne.

Nachrichten aus. Buch auf. Aurienne und Oric treiben sich jetzt in einer Art kinky Club rum, wo Nackte mit monströsen… äh… Gliedern “Besamung” anbieten. What?? War das nicht eben noch ein harmloser Fantasy-Roman? 😳

Starting to think this book actually wants to be Katabasis.
Note: I was not crazy about Katabasis but it was a million times better than this.

Osric & Aurienne and Helena & Kaine no longer feel like DM & HG to me--tho sure, they are clearly their literary descendants. Helkaine especially feel to me like mature literary constructs capable of potentially "parenting" their own derivative(positive) character ensembles/stories.

Fair cop: there are some genuinely solid jokes in this book. Nothing too original, but the comic timing is definitely there. But the humor isn't serving either the plot or the characters. It's just there to be outrageous (and possibly because Gideon the Ninth did it), so it ends up being boring.

Mit Aurienne und Osric in den Morgen gestartet. Bin kein Fan von der plötzlichen in-your-face Vulgarität in diesem seltsamen Pub. Aber ich bin ein Fan von dem messerscharfen, wortverspielten Gekabbel der beiden.

There are two POV characters in this novel (so far, I guess) and they are clearly delineated by the third person which clearly identifies each one at the beginning of their chapters. But we still need to do the thing where each chapter opens with their name because I guess the readers are stupid.

Zumindest gelingt es mir heute, mich ein bisschen auf mein Hörbuch zu konzentrieren. Osric und Aurienne sind sich zum ersten Mal begegnet. Abneigung auf den ersten Blick, wie es sich für enemies-to-lovers gehört.

The Exquisite Torment of Loving Your Enemy by Brigitte Knightley. The banter cracked me up, the heartbreak hit hard "the mournful beauty of things that could never be". Then the opera - with Osric hiding beneath Aurienne voluminous gown when boredom struck with a spicy sequence #booksky #reading

Verstehe ich das richtig? Der Plot wird sein, dass Aurienne mit Oric zu diversen “magischen Orten” reist, um herauszufinden, ob sie ihn da heilen kann, und währenddessen zicken sie sich an, bis sie sich irgendwann küssen? Mal sehen, ob das reicht. Im Augenblick ist es lustig.

What a silly, goofy, fun time this was.
-Osric is a pathetic yearner and I love him
-Aurienne is in denial
-Tristane, I adore you
I know this is a duology and it did wrap up nicely but I also would not be mad about another book 😚

🗡️ Osric Mordaunt, member of the Fyren Order of assassins, is in dire need of healing. Naturally, such is the grim comedy of fate, the only healer who can help is Aurienne Fairhrim, preeminent scientist, bastion of moral good, and member of an enemy Order 🧪
