I loved this book so much. So much great character work and worldbuilding in a small package. I can't wait to read more of this world. This story is funny and brutal all at the same time. Also The Misfit of Kantor might be giving me nightmares for quite some time. I can't recommend this enough.

I had a fun time with this one. It was a lot packed into a novella and was over the top sometimes but in a way that I found enjoyable

I read this book not knowing it is a novella/prequel to other two books (She Topples Giants and She Courts Darkness) but nevertheless I didn't know the main story and the worldbuilding I really appreciated it. Despite its brevity, it's well written and keeps you glued to the pages. It has been a sincere surprise to me. The main character is not too deep here because, I think, she's more detailed in the main books, but even so I felt her potential and I tasted her backstory.
