A lifetime as a fencing prodigy prepared Eunha for her new role as Selena Evan, novel side character and daughter of a renowned swordsman. Life isn't actually so bad after being sucked into a fictional world, but she’s doomed to meet an untimely death if she can't escape the clutches of the villainous Prince Ignus. When Selena's twin brother, Celestine, runs away before his military conscription, she has no choice but to enlist under his name to avoid getting her entire family executed. But hiding her identity won’t be so easy once Ignus takes note of her impressive sword skills and sets his sights on turning “Sir Celestine” into his top henchman. With the threat of execution looming over her head, can Selena avoid getting caught by the villain? (Source: Tappytoon) Note: Includes two extra chapters.

Read the full take
A lifelong fencing prodigy wakes up inside a fictional world as a side character, the daughter of a famous swordsman. The premise is a reader-in-the-story twist with a clear threat: a villainous prince who could bring about her death.The strongest element is the disguise. When her twin runs away before conscription, she takes his place to keep her family from execution, and every scene carries the risk of exposure. Her skill with the blade gives the story a satisfying edge, and the military setting adds weight.The weakness is familiarity. Villainous princes and disguised heroines follow well-worn paths, and some military arcs drag over a long run. The romance threads lean on the same tensions the premise already sets up.If you enjoy swordplay fantasy with a heroine hiding in plain sight, it is a solid pick. It is tense and earnest. Expect close calls, a sharp blade and a story about the cost of protecting the people you love.
