Game of Queens: A Novel of Vashti and Esther by India Edghill

3.5

The story of Esther is very important, and Edghill proposes some interesting dynamics, including the acknowledgment of the full palace world with the addition of other characters, and Mordecai is more in the background than in the biblical account. There were plenty of decisions I didn't agree with, but overall, there were some valuable themes and it was an enjoyable enough read, too.
