Some Desperate Glory by Emily Tesh

4.0

Extremely enjoyable. Great setting, phenomenal characterization - especially the main character - and a very satisfying ending. Very surprising, and not at all what I had imagined when I read the synopsis, in the best possible way.

I struggled a lot with visualising the otherworldly elements though, like Yiso's appearance and the shadowengine stuff. There were several times when I got lost in paragraphs of description, not having a clue what was actually being said.
