I liked it, the ending was pretty satisfying. Something about it felt flimsy though. I may be comparing it to the Farseer trilogy too much. In all of Girton's text, I was looking for Fitz.

I thought the political intrigue was fun but imagine how much juicier it would have been had I actually loved the characters.

It lacked the depth I needed from stories like this but I did like it well enough. Might pick up the second book one day.

(I also noticed how much RJ Barker enjoys older women master characters, I appreciate it even tho Merela is almost identical to Maes from the Bone Ships)
