About this book

From World Fantasy Award-winning author Tasha Suri comes The Isle in the Silver Sea, a heart-shattering standalone romantasy of sapphic longing, medieval folklore and a love that spans the centuries.

In an England fuelled by stories, the knight and the witch are fated to fall in love and doom each other over and over, the same tale retold over hundreds of lifetimes.

Simran is a witch of the woods. Vina is a knight of the Queen’s court. When the two women begin to fall for each other, how can they surrender to their desires, when to give in is to destroy each other?

As they seek a way to break the cycle, a mysterious assassin begins targeting tales like theirs. To survive, the two will need to write a story stronger than the one that fate has given to them.

But what tale is stronger than The Knight and the Witch?

I did enjoy it though I wish it had induced a bit more enthusiasum from the...

Complicated magic system that takes a bit to figure out

December 10, 2025

Thank you to Hachette Audio and Orbit for the ALC! I’m conflicted with this one. I enjoyed the magic system of reincarnation and stories, BUT as a reader, this was an extremely hard system to figure out and piece together with the hints they gave us. As pointed out in other reviews, since the magic system was so important in the plot and movement forward of the story, this made everything feel disjointed and made the pacing hard to keep up with. I enjoyed the characters, and the second half was...
