In this episode, we dive into the romantasy book The Ever King by LJ Andrews. This is the first book in The Ever Seas series. The series also includes The Ever Queen, The Mist Thief, and The Stolen Crown (available in October 2026). We’re covering all books in the series on the podcast over the next few months.
During this episode, we discuss how Erik Bloodsinger alone is reason enough to read this series, how we were hooked from the first chapter, why Erik and Livia’s story is basically every girl’s fantasy, why touching the Chasm is similar to lighting the black flame candle in Hocus Pocus, our hilarious thoughts about a potential relationship between Celine and Sewell, why we were absolutely shocked by the end of this book, and how we cannot wait to read the next one. Plus, we discuss our theories about who else might be a traitor, why we think Sewell knows more than we realize, the importance of the sirens being kept prisoners, and why we’re convinced that Fione has been playing both sides for a long time.
