Point of Hopes by Lisa A. Barnett, Melissa Scott

4.0

Goodness, this was a delight! High fantasy in a matriarchal society and with queer themes--definitely not a romance, at least not yet, but it's clear there's ~something~ between the two male leads that apparently develops in the future books. Procedural/case!fic type read, and a bit slow to start, but by the end I was hooked. World-building was a little confusing at times, but not to the point where I ever felt truly lost, and I'm excited to keep reading the series!
