3.0

I went into this booking thinking it was going to be more fantasy and less political drama and I was wrong. I liked the tension between the two main characters, Luca and Touraine, and I think the duel points of views worked well for the book. 

I loved the world building, I could clearly see the coutry of Balladaire in my mind's eye. This is definitely a fantasy because

there's magic in the world

but I think the book was too heavy on politics for me have to rated it four stars or higher.

I read this for my book club,  The Supernova Book club
