An Ordinary Knight

A Fairy Cursed Fable

By: H. L. Burke

Narrated by: Rena Gail

Stuck in a humiliating position as the Royal Kennel Guard, Sir Percy sees little hope for anything other than an obscure fate. After all, in the Kingdom of Ithelia, you need a fairy to guide you to greatness, and fairies just don't bother with knights like him.

However, when Percy catches the eyes of the sheltered Princess Matilda, his world expands in new and frightening ways.

A victim of an ill-planned Christening, Matty has spent her life in a locked tower, hiding from pixie attacks. Now she'll do anything to escape. And if that means dragging Percy along for a cross country search for Prince Charming, so be it.

But not all Prince Charmings are what they seem, and as Matty's plight grows more desperate, Percy finds himself losing his heart. Does a lowly knight have what it takes to uncurse a princess?

Anti-fairy tale?

An Ordinary Knight by H.L.Burke is not a fairytale retelling. This fairytale like story is a completely original tale that feels like an older story.

The princess Matilda has lived in a tower her whole life to protect her from fairies. They are out to get her.

Percy has lived his whole life as an ordinary guy because fairies want nothing to do with him.

When these to get together it turns into an adventure.

Narrator Rena Gail does an amazing job of differing her voice to make each character sound unique. one of my favorite narrators.

A short fairy tale

~Disclaimer I received a free audiobook code of this book~


Given this was a fairytale I knew where the story was going from the beginning. However, I found the quick read was rather fun and I'll probably check out more of the authors books as a result.

Some characters are rather one note, but that is again to expected in a fairy tale. The main character is very likable and the world it creates is interesting.

Def worth a looksee (especially if you have kindle unlimited).
