Clark is definitely a master at finding moments of humor among the magical and mysterious. I found myself unable to put this book down. There’s lots of depth given to the female characters, and I enjoyed seeing the development of Fatma and Hadia’s working relationship, especially as two women in a male-dominated career. Also, I loved Fatma’s girlfriend Siti; I want to be her when I grow up 😭 This book also points out the audacity of white people coming into another country to “appreciate” the culture yet act supremely bigoted and haughty towards the native people. I absolutely loved the twist, and I’m looking forward to more books in this series!
