#caraval master legend

[tiny-dreamer]

So, I finished reading Spectacular. And, I read the 2 bonus epilogues that both of them hint at very different stories. The first one in the Barnes& Nobel's edition, explains a holiday celebrated in the magnificent north. So maybe the next book in this universe will be about eva and jacks ? But, what really surprised me is that legend is the one that created it. And, we get the hint that maybe tella and him will go to the magnificent north to celebrate it. So, I guess we can hope for a story combining both ?

As for the second epilogue, Julian proposed to legend that the next caraval happened at his wedding with Scarlett as a gift. And, I would do anything to get that book in my hands. A caraval wedding is going to be great. But, again legend hinted to the baby dragons in the magnificent north, saying that he wants to get some for this caraval.

It's safe to say that the next story in this universe will be in the magnificent north. But, I strongly hope for one with jacks and eva and I don't mind the addition of tella and legend. But, please let's not have a whole story focused on tella.

I’m truly sorry for another Timmy fancast, BUT THIS IS CARAVAL MASTER LEGEND!!!

[isladelossuenos]

Tella: Why does Jacks look like he's about to cry? Evangeline: He took a quiz for "Which Character are you from Caraval?" Tella: And who did he get? Legend: Me.

Caraval / Stephanie Garber

[vanebookrecs]

My simple review on "Caraval" by Stephanie Garber. I feel as though this was overhyped due to BookTok. I will read the rest of the series just to finish it, but I also know that OUABH was part of this universe, so I'm hoping I'll still enjoy it.

spoilers for Caraval by Stephanie Garber (and a little bit of Once Upon A Broken Heart ig)

Okay so like... I've been rereading the caraval series because I just got once upon a broken heart and I forgot like, EVERYTHING and also I wanted to piece together the timelines (since I knew that OUABH starts out during... finale I think?) And all. And I love it. Miss kt. Gotta be one of my favorite series. But like... the fandom, dudes. I come here for good old carnival content cause I don't want no spoilers and yet OUABH posts are tagged with caraval. little annoying but I can live..

What I really care about is the people. Like, people who read caraval first are chill. They like OUABH and all and love the characters and I like them. But the people who read OUABH first?? What? They get so mad and critical once they read Caraval. And some don't even read it! They just dump on it from what they've heard. And like... Can't we all just be chill? Is that okay? Theyre both good series. Caraval is good. Leave it alone. Just cause you don't like how Jack's is portrayed doesn't mean you get to hate on it. Like... Caraval came first. It's like Jacks's "if you don't like me at my worst you don't deserve me at my best". He had been trapped for hundreds of years and confused and wanted to mess with people and he got a little tripped up. Not his fault. And it's not all about Jacks. It's about other plots and other characters too.

What do you make of the tellalegend scene? I loved it but saw some posts on how it could be dub/non con so now I'm not so sure anymore.

Hi anon! Let me start this by saying it was 100% consensual, as stated by Tella at the end of the book. I'm sorry people tried to ruin that for you. But since you have that doubt allow me to explain what I think Stephanie went for there in literary terms.

Spoilers for the entire Spectacular book under the cut!

So doing a small recap if you stumbled here unaware of any drama, Spectacular is by far Stephanie's spiciest book. In it, Tella gets kidnapped, bound, gagged and blindfolded (all of which are perfectly normal, canon compliant things in this universe) and given to Legend as a gift. They get intimate (he touches her parts at some point) and at the end of the book he gives her the letter she sent asking to be kidnapped AND Tella tells him she realized it was him before they had any physical contact, thus making the entire thing 100% consensual.

I know what you're thinking. "but Cami, If it's consensual how come Tella is sending all these mixed messages throughout the scene?"

I'm so glad you asked! She's not.

See, we all informally say Caraval is from Scarlett's and Tella's POV, but it is not. Caraval is actually written in the third person, with an omniscient narrator.

An ‘all-knowing’ kind of narrator very commonly found in works of fiction written as third-person narratives. The omniscient narrator has a full knowledge of the story's events and of the motives and unspoken thoughts of the various characters. He or she will also be capable of describing events happening simultaneously in different places—a capacity not normally available to the limited point of view of first-person narratives.

Now, just because the narrator knows everything doesn't mean he will tell you everything. Stephanie very specifically uses this tool in ALL her books to omit information from the reader. It is how she creates that illusion atmosphere we all love from Caraval, and she repeats that here in Spectacular.

While Tella knew it was Legend all along, the narrator chose to keep that information from us to build up suspense.

Now, that's a very tricky thing to do when the topic is romance and intimate relations because people can misinterpret what is happening. To discuss whether she should have or shouldn’t is very valid, but that’s not our topic here today. Regardless, she is aware of this. So what did Stephanie do to soften that gap?

She hints at it. First with the illustrations, in which you as the reader can clearly tell Legend is the one who kidnapped her, but also through text. Phrases like:

"A low laugh moved through the chamber, cool and dark, and Tella immediately recognized the intoxicating sound of it."

"Every inch of her tingled from the magic, dark dangerous magic that felt like candlelight dancing over her skin, ready to singe her if it lingered too long."

"If the Legendary Master of Caraval had kidnapped her, then she knew exactly what he would want. “You want to play a game?” “If you win, I’ll remove the blindfold.""

"Her fingers could feel the soft hair at the nape of his neck. She thought it felt like Legend. He kissed like Legend."

So there you go, anon. That's what's happening here. That's why the book is written a certain way. But don't worry, what happened between them there was 100% consensual. And Legend himself was very much worried about mantaining it as such. So much so that when Tella jokes she didn't know it was him he freezes with fear.

“When did you figure it out?” Legend asked later.

“Well”—Tella half shrugged against him—“that letter of mine in the box sort of gave it away.” Legend stiffened beneath her.

She laughed and reached up to cup his cheek. “Who knew that the famous Master Legend was so gullible?” Tella pressed a quick kiss to his lips. “I knew it was you all along.”

Enjoy our blorbos and don't worry about bad internet takes ~

[illicthearts]

And you’re telling me not even Legend can kiss like this? And I’m supposed to root for him? Caraval Master vs. the Prince of Hearts? The Prince of Hearts who’s kisses are literally worth dying for?
