The most bizzare mashup of genres and settings I can possibly imagine into a fantastically realized, vibrant world. Not for the faint of heart, both in length and pace (epic fantasy style) but also in some of the descriptions of violence. Dialogue is incredibly written and very clever, I did legitimately laugh out loud a handful of times. Absolutely worth a read, and I will be seeking out the sequel.
