This story is a mess, but there are some interesting ideas here. A school of magic that acts as an oath to a moral code is ripe with opportunities for stories about corruption, redemption, and loopholes in the system. The prince being known for throwing knives could be a marker of his status as a rogue-ish figure trying to escape the stifling life of a kingdom so obsessed with righteousness and honor.

I feel like Newcomb heard that “only women can do magic” in the Wheel Of Time and was like, “OH YEAH. WELL WATCH THIS.” Then wrote what he saw as the opposite. Because women having power clearly upsets him. I like the part where you said they fight giant spiders in a “forbidden forest.” Same as in The Hobbit. And I pretty sure Tristan realizing his endowment and then it causing an explosion that kills the Sorceresses is an allegory for Tristan ejaculating. Also, was the Sorceress’ plan to repopulate the world part of their original plan before the banishment? Or did they come up with it during those 300 years?

After doing some research on why most of Europe took forever to find the America’s. I was confronted with the fact that people couldn’t deal with scurvy being at sea for so long. One of the only reasons Leif (please kill me if I’m misinformed) got to America was because he was able to get there was navigating by the coastlines of Greenland and among other things probably having an experienced crew. What the author is trying to get at here makes sense, but not from the perspective explanation maybe they should consult the Rime of the ancient mariner for descriptive horrors of sea travel gone wrong. Edit: Forgive my syntax errors, however I will not fix them.

Scurvy is one reason, then there is wind. Sailing means you have to use wind to move, between Europe and America wind usually blow toward Europe. Going by Coastlines gives you time to wait for the right winds while also giving you access to freshwater, but al the Islands up there are cold and of little Interest to most Sailers. The tradewinds are down by Africa, so Europeans hardly knew about them, since there was hardly anything Interesting down there for them. Even the Canary Islands can be reached without them. Wich is an important point in itself: There was nothing out there to sail to. Iceland was found when someone missed the Faroe Islands, Greenland was found when Iceland was missed. There were no known Islands out toward the East that could be missed, so noone accidently landed in the Americas. Even the Azores are far to close to Europe for anyone to sail past them long enough to reach America before realizing they shoot over.

More likely some boats drifted there with the crew long gone on arrival. As for Africa, many Cultures on the westcoast were close enough to the Tradewinds to make it possible, but again, there is nothing to aim for. There was no reason to venture out that far to certain death, then randomly finding land and, being sad that they survived, traveling back home to tell others. Some Olmecan statues that maybe kinda sorta look like Africans is rather thin proof. And if anyone found the Americas they should have told someone about it.

Uh, this is only marginally better, but he emergency c-sectioned the lead sorceress (Succu?), not his sister, I think his sister just stopped being evil or something after the other sorceresses died.

It wasn’t his sister so I’d say that part isn’t strange, though cutting the clearly dead (she jumped from a tower) baby out for it’s own burial instead of just burying them together was a little weird to me.

Krimson Rogues response to the “not a part of the target audience” argument was to hold out Green Eggs and Ham and say “whoops! This wasn’t written for me, looks like I can’t have an opinion on it!” Bit exaggerative but it gets the point across.

Fantastic review of a book I've never heard of. My attention is also extremely grabbed by the concept of a 'Fake Married' romance or 'opposites attract' romance between a fantasy king who doesn't want to be king and the person he picks to be queen to do all his work or the person he picks to be PM to do all his work. It just sounds really cute and funny and I can't stop thinking about it now.

TBH, the main character being immature could be handwaved with the fact that he's a spoiled aristocrat, and also his dad, and possible further ancestors, are immortal so will hang around him for a long while, possibly to the point of being overprotective. It could also be that in this world every royal is not seen as a "true" adult until they get immortalized. Weather or not it's addressed like that in the book, or did the author even planned it like that, I do not know. Likely not, but you know, still an interesting tidbit in my opinion.

if Tristan's childishness is doing the opposite, I've seen it done well. namely in Dragon Builders where the hero of DQ1 gave the sword to the Dragonlord in the backstory because he never had a real choice in anything until that moment. up until then he was effectively being dragged along by the plot. this was done to mirror the player character in Builders whose decision to do the opposite what they're told was going to fight someone they were told time and again they coulld not match

This story had so much potential! A magic system based on morality? A monarchy that is actually ruled by a shadow court of immortal mages? A prince who does not want the throne? A sex based magic system where the men are seen as good and the women seen as evil? He could have easily written the sorceresses as procieved evil in a male-dominated society. Maybe the "great war" was actually them fighting for their rights, which is why the male wizards couldn't just kill them Tristan realizes that as king, he'd just be a pawn to to the mages, so he rebells against them, and Natasha uses this to get him on her side in fighting for the sorceresses' rights.
