Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Fence #1 (Fence, #1) in Books
Jan 6, 2021
I've been eyeing this for a while. I've read the author's M/M Fantasy Romance series Captive Prince and fell in love with it so I was hoping this would be just as good. It's only short being the first instalment but it had potential to be something quite good. The artwork was great and the storyline has me intrigued.
It follows Nicholas Cox, illegitimate son to a fencing star who has followed in his dad's footsteps and likes fencing. He enters a tournament and is up against fencing prodigy Seiji Katayama and fails miserably. Shortly afterwards he get's into a prestigious all boy's school where he hopes to get better with his fencing and hopefully get on the team.
I am intrigued what's going to end up happening with this series both with Nicholas and his fencing dreams and knowing the author writes M/M Romances.
I've just bought book 2, will review it soon.

I finished this last night, another fairly short continuation with Nicholas finding out his roommate is none other than Seiji and both of them hating it. They divide the room and then go to bed, ready for the next days fencing lessons where we then meet the rest of the team.
I actually thought this was a fun addition to the first, which was a bit more serious. There were definitely a few fun scenes in this with meeting the rest of the fencing team hopefuls. They all had their own personalities and quirks and the artwork showed them brilliantly.
I'm looking forward to reading more of this.
