A review by sarabz
The House of Binding Thorns by Aliette de Bodard

4.0

Even better than the first book in the series, this was a lot of fun. You get to spend a lot of time in the dragon kingdom, which was so cool. And I especially liked the complexity in portrayals of good and bad - I don't think there were any characters that were good or evil in a unqualified way. Some were more sympathetic than others, but de Bodard uses the mutiple perspectives in the story very effectively to show the ways in which individual actions affect others, often in ways the actors aren't thinking about.
