Amazing, as always. Her ability to imagine other ways of living that feel plausible and realistic! And oh her prose!! This was a far more beautiful book than it expected it to be.
Damn, had I known the premise I probably wouldn't have read it. Big mistake, this book is SO much fun.
I would recommend this to somebody who wanted to dip their toes into fantasy. It has all hallmarks, but takes much less effort to get into. Also nicely self-contained in just the one book. A bit heavy handed at times, though.
Wow. I wish I could forget this so I could read it all over again.
