An entertaining, engrossing and somewhat unusual cozy mystery that kept me hooked till the end.
It was the first I read in this series and I loved the unusual characters and the originality of the plot.
The cast of characters is well developed, the plot keeps you hooked and the mystery is clever and full of twists and turns.
I look forward to reading other books in this series.
Highly recommended!
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine.

I was fascinated by how powerful and beautiful this book is.
The style of writing, the characters and developments in the plots are part of a coral work that you have to read slowly to enjoy at last and, at same time, makes you wish to turn the pages as fast as you can.
It's grim, dark and enchanting at the same time.
I'm happy I discovered a new great fantasy author and a new amazing series.
Highly recommended!

it's a well written book but unfortunately I didn't feel involved and the book fell flat.
Not my cup of tea.

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

I'm speechless as this is one the best alternate history book i've ever read.
The style of writing, the character development, the historical background create a powerful, enthralling and amazing story that keeps you hooked to the page.
I'm happy I requested this ARC because I discovered Lavie Tidhar, such an excellent and powerful writer.
I'd be more than happy to rate this book 10/5 as it's amazing.
More than highly recommended!

The book is fun to read and entertaining but somehow I couldn't connect to the story.
I felt it was forced, lots of things happening but not a lot of development and issues seem to to be solved almost by magic.
I look forward to the next instalment, this one wasn't my cup of tea.
