Tales of Tavamara #5

The Prince's Harem

Rate this book
The worthiness of the royal family to rule is displayed in their those who willingly surrender their lives to serve as concubines, entertaining, pleasing, and serving the royal to whom they are sworn, forbidden to do anything else or even touch another without permission.

Prince Aradishir is approaching his twenty-fifth birthday, but has not a single concubine to his name. Though he longs to prove he is as worthy of his position as the rest of his family, and has never lacked for offers, he has yet to find even a single man who makes him want to ask the vital would you be mine?

Until he crosses paths first with an illegally kept slave rescued from a deadly beating one night… a misfit soldier desperate to find where he truly belongs… and a daring thief known for achieving the seemingly impossible, but always secretly wishing for the truly impossible.

Got a bit lost with the king and his harem popping up, but I liked it. Short stories building into a bigger picture and giving every member of the harem the spotlight. A slave, an abused guard and a thief. The thief was my favorite. Felt sorry for the guard, hope he made them squirm before forgiveness.

I loved returning to Tavamara, this time to read about the building of Prince Aradishir's harem. In this beginning of this set of stories, the lonely and naturally submissive prince is the only one of his family who has no one special to him. He's allowed by law to have up to three men in his harem and it is a high honor to be chosen. Still, he has met no one who meets his particular needs. The prince is also a kind-hearted man doesn't mind stepping up to protect and defend. This book has special love stories in the tradition of the series. I greatly enjoyed it and look forward to reading The Prince's Wife to read about how the prince gets his wife, who can have by law her own female harem.

Pleasant enough but nothing too exciting.

Decent. Came across (to me) as a watered-down version of "A Suitable Consort [For the King and His Husband]" (less character development, like short-story level of development)
