It started light and frothy. It didn't really grab me, but I was hungry for more Captive's War and this was all there was on the table at the time.

This book went places. It surprised me and it made me want to go back again someday to see if I could have spotted the nightmare inbound. What more could you really ask from a story this brief and streamlined?

Note: Despite any claims to the contrary, you can read this and Mercy of Gods (Captive's War #1) in any order.

Shocking. Heart breaking. Seriously compelling stuff.

I was not expecting this to be quite as much fun as it was. It was touching, it was gross, it was funny.

The whole thing was weirdly adorable. I'll be picking up more by this author for sure.

A strong opener for a series, but very much just that. It exists to set the scene. Read alone it isn't particularly thrilling, but the setting and ideas are enough to propel one toward the inevitable invitation to read an actual story that will follow it.

I'll be there when it comes out. With bells on. In the meantime I'll read Livesuit, which I'm looking forward to quite a bit.

Implausible. Pretentious. Just utter twaddle. I was furious with it by the end.
