Really enjoyed this book, so much more than I thought I would. Adventure, history, a whole different world. Great characters, social commentary on issues that remain relevant. A sweeping, beautifully written historical fiction.

One of the best historical fiction I’ve read in a long time. Adult read- not for middle school shelves.
