A compelling plot and a good cast of flawed characters, who's choices drive the story. The elements of magical realism and victoriana were right up my street, but there is also a content warning for some xenophobic language (period appropriate) so if that doesn't appeal, it might be worth giving this one a miss.
Moderate: Racial slurs and Xenophobia
