Summary

A heartwarming and humorous blend of fantasy, romance, and mystery featuring a witch with domestic powers and the royal household he serves...dinner.

When Finlay Ashowan joins the staff of the King and Queen of Daxaria, he’s an enigma. No one knows where he comes from or how he came to be where he is, which suits Fin just fine. He’s satisfied simply serving as the royal cook, keeping nosy passersby out of his kitchen, and concocting some truly uncanny meals.

But Fin’s secret identity doesn’t stay hidden for long. After all, it’s not every day a house witch and his kitten familiar, Kraken, take to meddling in imperial affairs. As his powers are gradually discovered by the court, Fin finds himself involved in a slew of intrigues: going head-to-head with knights with less-than-chivalrous intentions, helping to protect the pregnant queen, fending off the ire of the royal mage, and uncovering a spy in the castle. And that’s only the beginning—because Fin’s past is catching up with him just as his love life is getting complicated . . .

Filled with fascinating characters, courtly intrigue, political machinations, delicious cuisines, cuddly companions, magical hijinks, and will-they-won’t-they romance, The House Witch is the first in a captivating new series, guaranteed to satisfy the tastes of any listener.

The first volume of the hit romantic-fantasy series—with more than a million views on Royal Road!

The narrators choice of accents for the cats was…questionable

I really enjoyed the story but the narrator’s choice of accents for the cats made it so difficult to get through those chapters. Would still recommend

Amazing series

I have loved this series and listened to it over and over. Definitely worth your time and credits!
Amazing work by the author and narrator, can I also say that I loved the original cat voice, it made me smile and quite frankly was purrfect, sad the trolls made you change it.

Exactly what the blurb says

This story is exactly what the blurb claims. Heartwarming, humorous, romantic and with a bit of suspense. I had a wonderful time listening, and am only stopping to write this review before getting the next book in the series.

Some listeners have been discontent with the accents for the cats, but I thought they worked excellently.

Story that keeps you wanting more!

Really enjoyable story, great characters, will be getting the second in the series straight away! Although I agree with others about the cats- such a weird choice of accent! It doesn’t distract from the story though.

Thoroughly enjoyable.

There's a bit of swearing not suitable for younger readers but on the whole a very easy listen with a few laugh out loud moments. Found myself grinning while listening and rooting for the characters.

heart tugging caring warmth
