This is a suspense packed, "switcheroo" of a story! When a villainous Lady loses her prince to her sweet demure rival, things start to get crazy. They have swapped bodies, leaving both women learning what it's like to be the other. The suspense is crazy! I'm crossing my fingers that these two work it out and rise up against all their oppressors together one day. I'm excited to see where this one goes!

A huge thank you to @wattpadbooks for my gorgeous copy.

This webtoon was so good. I loved every minute of it and never wanted it to end. I can't wait to read more. Thank you so much Netgalley for an arc of this book. I apologize for the late review.

Damn. It was so good. The whole revenge plot is just amazing. I wasn’t expecting that twist but I can’t wait to see where this goes!! Initially I hated both the FMCs but after the twist I am starting to like them both. I luckily received a ARC copy from netgally!

Two rivals switch bodies, and Medea's revenge will make or break her fate.

In the Vasilos Empire, not everything is as it seems. The Crown Prince decided to marry Psyche Callista instead of Medea Solon, who was originally supposed to marry him. This angered Medea, and she vowed to seek revenge. On the day of the Yearly Prayer, Medea defied the rules and showed up at the temple, where she had a brief altercation with Psyche. During the encounter, a divine power caused Medea and Psyche to switch bodies as a result of Medea's prayer. Now that Medea has what Psyche had, what will she do? Was this an unexpected turn of events, or was it a stroke of misfortune?

The book I'm referring to is a captivating webtoon that I first read when I was younger. Rediscovering it recently was a delightful experience as the story is incredibly well-written and utterly fascinating, as I remember. I'm eagerly anticipating the sequel to find out what happens next.

Psyche strikes me as a rather unremarkable character, lacking a vibrant personality. I hope to see her undergo more significant character development in the upcoming installment. On the other hand, the Prince, also known as Eros, exudes a subtle air of malevolence, leaving me with the sense that he is constantly scheming. Medea, with her cunning and captivating persona, undergoes an intriguing character evolution throughout the story.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a narrative filled with unexpected turns and gripping suspense that will keep them on the edge of their seats.

Happy Reading and Happy Pub Day, Paige ❤️ 📚

Was I sad that the only option available for me to read early was a black and white PDF?? Why yes, yes I was. BUT, as a resourceful human, I used my WEBTOON app to kind of simultaneously scroll while reading so I could get an idea of the colors for the characters and full-scale of the art for a better picture. It just took me much longer to read it that way since the flips back and forth were a bit time consuming.

Outside the format, the story itself was fairly enjoyable. It totally fits with the whole villain origin/villain MC vibes that have been cropping up lately. Vengeful Lady Medea somehow magically switches bodies with the sweet Psyche who has taken her place as the Crown Prince’s fiancée.

It wasn’t my favorite of the WEBTOONs that I’ve read, but it was still an enjoyable read with the unexplainable magic body switch, the intriguing side characters and a Crown Prince with his own shady agenda. The set up between polar opposite Medea and Psyche was also intriguing to see develop over the course of the story.

If you’re interested in graphic novels spinning a tale of court intrigue in a fantasy realm with some literal role reversal via magic switch between a morally gray vengeful lady and her sweeter rival, this may just be a book to checkout.

Thank you to Netgalley and WEBTOON for the early copy in exchange for an honest review.

👑 Your Throne🗡️ by Sam 삼
Thank you @netgalley and @webtoonofficial for this ARC, this is my honest review!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
💭My thoughts: This was a a great manga full of angst and drama. The blurb hooked me in instantly! Imagine switching bodies with your rival 🤯 It does end on a cliffhanger but it leaves you wanting more. I really like Medea’s black cat personality. She’s so strong and not only mentally but physically, being familiar with swords and self defense. I need to know more and specifically why the crown prince did what he did! I look forward to continuing this series and recommend this to anyone who enjoys beautiful artwork in manga, drama, switching bodies with rival, and tons of action and revenge.

Your Throne, Vol. 1 by Sam is a historical fantasy manga where court politics has a Freaky Friday.

This volume contains the first twelve (12) episodes of the Your Throne Webtoon comic that follows two polar opposite women attempting to survive in a heavily patriarchal culture that pits them against each other every step of the way. And did I mention that there's a wish on an annual special day of prayer and oops these two women swap bodies?

The beginning was slightly confusing for me, but once I got about midway into this volume I couldn't stop reading. By the end of the twelfth episode, there were several zigs and zags that really had me intrigued. Upon finishing, I immediately went to my Webtoon app to subscribe. It was a really fun read!

There are several interstitial flashbacks that shine a new light on our two main characters. I'm excited to read more in this story to watch the characters keep growing. The art style really fits the theme and content, and I really love the artist's color palatte.

I'd highly recommend you pick this up if you like fast-paced political fantasy with tons of surprises. Especially if you like chess metaphors.

CW: violence, death, poison, kidnapping

Medea is such a queen! She was so strong and determined it made me admire her so much.
I also loved the contrast between her and Psyche. She’s the opposite of Medea and more gentle and kind.
The book starts out a bit slow and picks ups towards the halfway mark. It is gritty and dark and intense and everything fits together so well.
I’m curious to see more of that and the characters as well.

I loved it! I admit it was quite confusing at first, but i need Volume 2 in my hands right now!!! And that final plot twist, my goodness!!
My rating: 3.5/4!

At first, I was a little confused in the beginning but as the story continues. I feel as though you’re able to put the pieces together and everything makes sense. Especially when it comes to the dynamic that Medea has with Psyche. Once you start to understand these two girls, I feel like this was a really interesting beginning for a unique story.

Your Throne, Vol. 1 takes readers deep into the heart of the Vasilios Empire, where the thirst for power, intricate political games, and personal vendettas collide. Lady Medea Solon, once poised to ascend alongside Crown Prince Eros, finds herself stripped of her status and forced to devise a cunning plan to reclaim her position. What truly sets the narrative in motion is the body swap between Medea and her rival, Psyche, which not only deepens the tension but also adds layers of psychological intrigue to the story.

The artwork complements the narrative beautifully, capturing the grandeur of the empire and the emotional complexities of the characters. Medea's sharp wit and fierce determination are palpable through every page, while the sinister undertones of the kingdom's ruling elite are subtly highlighted.

However, while the plot is gripping, it takes a bit of time to fully establish itself. Some pacing issues in the beginning might make it challenging for readers to immediately immerse themselves in the world. Yet, once the story picks up, it keeps you hooked with its unpredictable twists and rich character dynamics.

Overall, Your Throne, Vol. 1 is an engaging start to a dark, revenge-fueled tale, with enough depth and intrigue to keep readers coming back for more. A solid entry for fans of political drama and complex female leads.

As a prior reader for the original release of "Your Throne," the physical release was a nice way to re-read the story after months of not reading it.

I advise not to look up the character names as its mythology origins give away certain character and potential story elements. I personally enjoy it more when I didn't think about how the names reflect the characters. However, it can also reward mythology geeks for better understanding characters sharing those mythological names.

Re-reading this as a published release made me more aware of both its storytelling strengths and arguable flaw in its frequent PoV switches. This will definitely appeal to those who like a darker story and/or a cunning villainness protagonist. Once the PoV switches really come into play (no spoilers), then it becomes more frequent and I think could be harder for 1st time readers to really follow the story and characters sometimes.

Once readers get used to the format, it's intriguing to see if the villainess can remain several steps ahead based on her wit, pessimism, and cunning vs. another character who starts off innocent, but likely change once realizing this dark, unforgiving world and story.

I look forward to having the physical book to read. I remain optimistic that the physical book will be able to break up the panels well for smooth transitions. Thank you again to NetGalley, the publisher, and author for this advanced read.

I would like to thank the Publisher for approving me for this ARC, via NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review.

What would you do if all your plans for revenge were suddenly ruined? What would you do if those plans were ruined because you woke up in the body of your sworn rival? This manga is the story of Lady Medea Solon, who should have been the next Empress. She was born into a wealthy, important family and was raised to take what’s rightfully hers. When the Crown Prince Eros puts her aside for Psyche Castella, things get interesting.

I absolutely love the richness in the artwork. It is stunning, well laid out, and fits perfectly with the story. There are so many times when the writing is just perfectly timed to deliver an emotional blow. This is just the beginning of their story, and it gets better. I cannot wait for more of the story to be published in physical form!

This story has a very intriguing premise, but it is mired by its adaptation from the scrollable comic. There were some very bad choices about where to put sound effects, and the cropping of certain panels left out key details.

Thanks to the author and NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I can’t express how much I love this story and characters it is so unique and raw and powerful. It is truly a masterpiece. The twists and turns this story takes are impossible to predict it always keeps the reader on its toes. Medea is ahhh, the words fail me to fully express how amazing, strong and cunning she is. And other characters are equally amazing. And the artwork is beyond captivating. It is by a landslide my favourite web novel. I can’t wait to read the next instalment.

Omg, this was SO good!
The characters aren't black and white characters where one is good and one is bad. The "villain" is more complex than meets the eye and there may be more to the meak girl too.
I couldn't stop reading as Lady Madea plotted and schemed, as she discovered a plot and wow, all the TWISTS 😍
Absolutely loved this and now want to go read the rest! I'll borrow my sister's phone, she already has Webtoon downloaded 🤭
Lady Madea was such a badass, and I couldn't help rooting for her even when she seemed cruel. I think she'll become friends with Lady Psyche. And I'm hoping there's something between her and a certain silver haired friend 🥰 hehe
I need more! 🤩 So so good! HIGHLY recommend!

I have very mixed feelings about this graphic novel. It had some exciting twists, and I do want to read the next chapters, however, it feels very similar to other webtoons based publications I've read. The art style, while gorgeous, and this is no disrespect to the artist, feels almost standardized, and the story feels very similar to others I've read. Perhaps I need to limit the number I read to just a few. This is an interesting story, and I would recommend it, but not if you've read the many other "noble woman trying to win power" stories that are popular both on the site and in the published graphic novels. Like I said, I want to continue reading it, but it has some unique twists I haven't seen yet, so it was enjoyable and kept my interest.

Thank you to Netgalley for providing me with an ARC of this story.
SPOILERS TO FOLLOW

I'm surprised I haven't actually heard of this webtoon. Usually I'm really tuned into that site but I guess not! Especially since I looked it up and it's been going on for a while. I almost didn't want to keep reading this because I don't like it when the two main women of the story are fighting each other but it was quickly revealed that the main villain of the story is not either Psyche or Medea but Eros, the crown Prince. I'm excited to read more (I'll probably do so on a different site) and I really want Helio to end up with Medea in the end. They seem like they have a really good relationship. If not that, I want Medea to usurp the throne and rule with Helio, and Psyche (make it a whole polamourous love story since I think the three of them work well together.)

Your Throne is a standard fantasy/regency manga. Two FL's are vying for the attention of the crown prince, one presented as evil & scheming, the other as naive & delicate. There's a body swap & more scheming that ensues. This first volume contains episodes 1-12 (that can be read for free on the Webtoon app) and so far it's entertaining. It was a bit confusing at the beginning, but things start to make sense about 3 episodes in. There's some mild romantic vibes between the real Lady Madea & her guard, but the focus is on the intentions of all three leads, so don't go in expecting sweeping romance. If you're into court politics and scheming women, you'll like this one.

This was a great first volume. I love the beautiful artwork and the story is very intriguing. I love the main female characters, especially Medea. I just love a fierce female character! I can’t wait to read the next volume. I definitely recommend this webcomic to fantasy lovers.
