I really enjoyed this. The main character was supposedly designed as a cross between Han Solo and Princess Leia. She's a princess who ran away from home decades before, and became a gun smuggler. At the start of the novel, she's forced to return home after a tragedy befalls her sisters, and ultimately to embrace her identity.

I just thought this was a lot of fun, and enjoyed the dynamic between most of the characters. The characters were influenced by Indian culture which is quite unique in fantasy in my experience.
