Okay this. This is what I loved about Princeless from the beginning. This is the kind of story I want every time. Tempest is my fave character obviously. I already loved her and then when they told her origin story, I just about died from joy and excitement. I love that Whitley is just, without reservation, not just accepting of all different people, but he outright puts on a spotlight on them and lets their unique voices shine. Even though this one ends on a cliffhanger and who knows when the series is going to be picked back up again, I also think this is the best volume of Princeless to date so I have to rate it accordingly.

 Recommends it for: Anyone who wants to smash the patriarchy. (And likes fun goofy dragons.)
