I loved this book so much. The magic system was really intriguing and Suri’s characterisation was intimate and striking. I also enjoyed the exploration of the theme of patriarchy and its inextricable links to empire. I need to read the sequel as soon as possible.

wow. Tasha Suri is a force to be reckoned with here in fiction: her prose is lyrical and stunning; her worlds rich and robust; her characters complex, and I couldn't get enough. I am a big fan of epic fantasy, of complexity, of chaos, of rebellion and revolution, of political intrigue, and especially of sapphic couples, and all of those loves (and more) bloomed abundantly here. beautiful book, just stunning

Some pacing issues, especially with the romance. But overall really well done. Solid worldbuilding, and intriguing main characters.
