Our Lady of the Streets by Tom Pollock
5.0
The City's Son excited me with inventive new ideas that just felt so RIGHT
The Glass Republic raised the stakes and threw in enormous character development.
Our Lady of the Streets, against the odds, managed to raise the inventive ideas again, gave heroes that were imperfect and didn't necessarily have the highly noble motivations that are so very common in fantasy. It also put me through the emotional wringer. I love it when a book does that!
...I need more of this world. I don't want it, I swear I need it. There were things left to the imagination or not visible through the frame this story was seen through and I hope that someday there might be a chance to learn more.
