SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary Leigh Bardugo's new book The Familiar is the most romantic one she's written, which raises the question of how spicy it is to match. Bardugo's new story is set in a semi-fictional Madrid in the late 1500s, late in the reign of King Philip II. It tells the tale of a young scullion maid named Luiza, who has a gift of magic and performing small "milagros," or little miracles that she keeps hidden.
The Familiar Does Get Spicier Than Bardugo's Other Books But It's Not That Spicy Compared To Someone Like Sarah J. Maas Or Rebecca Yarros If certain other romantasy authors are the queens of smut, then Leigh Bardugo is the queen of the slow-burn romance. Plenty of her romantic or potentially romantic pairings fall into the realm of there being something between them, but it's not always a something so easily immediately defined.
Instead, The Familiar' s spice is sweeter - less sex, more seduction; less horny lust, more deepening love between two weird creatures who were lost and misunderstood before they found one another. Like all of Bardugo's books, The Familiar weaves an evocative and rich tapestry, but it's a tapestry that is woven with meticulous historical detail and accuracy.
