The Witness for the Dead by Katherine Addison

4.0

I like Katherine Addison's world building. It feels like a real world, like reading an old book, but everything in this world is something different. She manages to insert explanations and descriptions in the story in a natural way, I never need to ask about something, but I'm not getting infodumped either. I love it.
There were some loose threads and themes and ideas that were presented but not [insert the word I have forgotten] further, and that bugs me a bit. But I will forgive, because I love her world, writing, characters, stories...
I am really glad this is a start of a series, even though I was slightly disappointed it wasn't about the Goblin Emperor.
