Another fun fantasy adventure from Sarah Beth Durst. I liked this one a little less than The Bone Maker but still really enjoyed it. The premise is fascinating and the worldbuilding is unique and thorough without being dense. The characters were complex and realistic and I was fully invested in their journeys. Both of Durst's novels that I've read recently have been easy, fun reads that are great for an engaging pick-me-up to offset some of the more intricate or complex fantasy out there. Overall, very well written and lots of fun!
