This was quite slow to start, but at around 80/90 pages it really picked up. The characters are brilliant and I especially enjoyed the story when our random team becomes fully assembled.
I loved the animal characters and thought they added a lot of humour and innocence. The older women in the crew were brilliant and I loved reading their contrasting personalities.

This isn’t heavy fantasy and isn’t plot heavy, though plenty happens, but I would say 50/50 plot/character focus and I really enjoyed it.
