What a lovely and unique book. This one pushed all the right buttons for me. The pacing was good, both in terms of the romance and the plot. There was just the right amount of tension and miscommunication between the two MCs. Both were likeable, interesting, mature and sympathetic. Finally, the world building was some of the most engaging I’ve read in recent years, and not because of the plot (though it was compelling enough), but because the author was able to tap into a real sense of otherness. The fantasy setting was distinctive and a little off-kilter, and the magic, strange, especially in the way it was expressed in each of the MCs. I read a lot, and so for a book to transport me so completely was a real gift.
