Gosh I wish I had more to say and I wish I could be more articulate about it, but this book ripped my heart out and made me swallow it and laughed at my expense, probably. Maybe I’ll post a better review when I reread it.
KINDLY HEED ALL CONTENT WARNINGS.
Lastly… nvm I don’t even want to think about Xate Olake and Tain Hu. Damn you Seth Dickinson.

I probably won't pick up the sequels, unfortunately. Highly suggest looking up content warnings as well.
