A review by viiemzee
The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon

adventurous medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

A slow start, yes, but did I enjoy it? Also yes. Highly recommended to any self-respecting high fantasy lover, especially those who crave LGBT representation in fantasy that isn't shoehorned in. A beautiful, wonderful, sweeping story of love, destiny, and duty. I crave more from this world!
