→ Trigger Warnings: Addiction, Genocide, Child Trafficking.
In-depth Rating:
→ Plot: ★★★★★
→ Character Development: ★★★★★
→ Setting: ★★★★★
→ Entertainment Level: ★★★★★

General Comments: A conflict between morality and amorality and an appetite for grimace-inducing violence; filled with crackling dialogue and sumptuous description. Loosely inspired by Dutch Republic-Era Amsterdam. The protagonists are resplendent in their individuality and characterisations; however, the displayed wisdom and traits of the protagonists does not reflect characters of adolescent age.
Favourite Quote: ‘No mourners. No funerals. Among them, it passed for ‘good luck’.’
Time Read: Three Days.
→ Audiobook: Yes.
→ Audiobook Narrator: Jay Snyder, Brandon Rubin, Fred Berman, Lauren Fortgang, Roger Clark, Elizabeth Evans, and Tristan Morris.
→ Age Range: Young Adult.
