Halla is a housekeeper who has suddenly inherited her great-uncle's estate... and, unfortunately, his relatives. Sarkis is an immortal swordsman trapped in a prison of enchanted steel. When Halla draws the sword that imprisons him, Sarkis finds himself attempting to defend his new wielder against everything from bandits and roving inquisitors to her own in-laws... and the sword itself may prove to be the greatest threat of all.

Is comfy swashbuckling a thing?

5 stars

This is a really great tale of a magical sword inhabited by a warrior who must guard the wielder and the somewhat feckless housekeeper/heiress who comes to own him. Largely humorous in nature, but with a really good plot to move it along, I very much enjoyed this tale of swords and questing told from a very unusual perspective. Recommended!
