A princess, an assassin, and a horse warrior walk into a war. OK, I don't have a punchline for that, but this book does have three distinct POVs, and those are they. Asian-inspired, with complex political maneuvering, this book is on the lighter side of grimdark in that, while its very violent and gory, it also features some characters who are genuinely trying to make a better world.
