Cursed with endless drowsiness, Enchantress Hiresha sleeps more than she lives. Since she never has had a chance to raise a family, she sometimes feels like every woman is pregnant except for her.
This time, she is right. From virgin to grandmother, all the women in her city have conceived. One unexpected pregnancy is a drama; fifty thousand is citywide hysteria.
A lurking sorcerer drains power from the unnatural pregnancies, and Hiresha must track him by his magic. Unfortunately, her cultured education in enchantment ill equips her to understand his spellcraft, which is decidedly less than proper. The only person uncivilized enough to help is the Lord of the Feast, a dangerous yet charming illusionist. Associating with him may imperil Hiresha’s city, yet refusing his help will allow the sorcerer to leech godlike power from the mass births.

Enchanting
With magic blended with a scientific aspect, this book drew mer into the world of the Enchantress right away. Even though she has flaws, the Elder Enchantress is a refreshingly strong character. The reading is well done, without any distracting sounds.
Brilliant!
One of the best podcast novels in YEARS. Imaginative story, great tension in the plot, and impeccable production. Anyone who loves fantasy will be rendered weak-knee’d over this gem.
Wonderful
Very well written and extremely well read!
