Book Review for Fey Conquest by S. Rodman

I received this book for free. This does not impact my review in any shape or form.

Fey Conquest, by S. Rodman, is an erotic fantasy romance about a man who, after muddling through life, is taken to be the lover/sex slave of Prince Rhydian Y Mabinogi. To cope with this somewhat harsh reality, James Broadwith tries to learn more about his captor’s world while reconciling his morality with the fairy’s ruthlessness. 

This review is gonna be shorter than most. It’s a good book, don’t get me wrong. But in a way, it reminds me of the empty calories you’d get from eating cupcakes. The sex scenes between James and Rhydian are steamy, and I appreciate how James is suddenly empowered to fight for equal rights for equal races (kind of like Star Wars and Twi’leks). However, I wish the revolution he accidentally started was more fleshed out, turning this story into a much darker fantasy than it should be. So the ending for me, unfortunately, was a tad too sugary for me. Even so, I enjoyed James’s character development.

I feel like this man was living the dreams of everyone tired of mundane life. Sometimes I dream of it. That being said, I’d reread this again, especially if I need a pick-me-up. As such, I would give this a 3.5 out of 5 stars.
