I loved this book! It's an enjoyable read if you like fast-paced, relatively light-hearted, queer historical fantasy with diverse, likeable characters and incisive but not-too-heavy social commentary. (And/or sexy content, because this one is spicy! Not usually my thing, but the characters are so likeable I couldn't help but be happy for them.) It's a very exciting debut and beginning of a series; I've already requested the second book from the library. I'm excited to read more from Freya Marske in the future!
