4/5. Entertaining and quite twisty - I liked this magical murder mystery. How the magic in the story actually works is a little unclear but I quite liked some of the main characters (Grasshopper is the best!) and I thought the politics were strangely set up but made sense also as a parallel to our current world. I liked the writing style but sometimes I found the tone to be a bit too jokey (but that makes sense with our protagonist…) So all in all, quite a good book and would recommend!
