Thanks to Macmillan Audio for the free copy of this book.
- THE STARDUST GRAIL was my first Yume Kitasei book and it certainly won’t be my last. I was fascinated by this universe and its history, which was expertly layered into a great heist plot.
- The story brings in elements ranging from artifact repatriation to what makes a creature sentient and human. There’s so much going on, but it’s all held together on the strength of the main band of characters.
- Also, I would die for Auncle. Anything for Auncle.
