I’m assuming the author was inspired by the late 19th or early 20th century, as are rifles and piping and electricity in this fantasy world of 9 nine realms—though with less rigid royals. I think what I appreciated most was how, despite applying the usual YA approach to simplify politics, etc, there is still attention paid to things such as existence of proper reasons for the coming of a new fashion ( man I loved this). And oh did I relish seeing LGBT+ characters and relationships as the norm in a YA fantasy novel, not a theme to be explored but an accepted and light addition. No, wait. Not my chest. To the hand holding the sheets in place and the extra weight I now feel there. Joined by a distractingly handsome mercenary and a young scholar with extensive knowledge of the world’s known magics, Ziva and her sister set out on a quest to keep the sword safe until they can find a worthy wielder or a way to destroy it entirely. And maybe I was willing to close an eye at the weak world if the characters were consistent. But, to my surprise, they were very interestingly contoured at the beginning but that was the peak. They just disappointed me by the end.

So thank you, Tricia, for giving the big eff you to the more popular theme of changing morally grey characters to white flags of peace and generosity.

I know what I’m doing. And I’m going to keep doing whatever I wish, because I am the master of myself.” I adore this book. It's a complex game of manipulation and court intrigue. Alessandra is a compelling, purely evil main character. It was a delight to be in her head.It was both excruciatingly torturous and delicious to read, and I took great pleasure in it. This book doesn’t hold a candle to TFOTA series but it’s special in its own way. The dynamic between Kallias and Alessandra reminded me of Cardan and Jude. Friendship: Suffice it to say that the female friendships in this book are a rare, heartwarming blessing. The development, the steady support they discovered within one another. My heart is soaring. First, the main "villain" (if you do not count Alessandra as the villain of the story) was very obvious. Plus the reason or explanation behind their actions was pretty easy to guess as well. I'm not angry by it, just disappointed. Kallias confesses his love by reading a letter he wrote to her. Alessandra tells him why she loves her and how she found her match and her equal. They kiss and start their new life together. The poets can say whatever they damned liked. A woman’s worth is not decided by what’s between her legs but by what is in her mind.”

I lose interest in everything sooner or later. Everything save you. Because in you, I found my match. In you, I found my equal.” We soon find out that Leandros Vasco is a handsome and quite flirty courtier. He grew up with the king but they have since grown apart despite Leandros still residing in his court. Myron is a hopeless romantic, and he is very much in love with Alessandra. At the beginning of the book, we find out they have been having a frisky affair. My blouse laces up the front in a fashion similar to a corset. It will be highly scandalous, and I suspect none of the men at court will be able to keep their eyes off me.

But I’m desperate for you all the same. And though I will not have millennia to live, I want to give however many years I have left to you. Because I love you. I love the woman who saved me. And though she doesn’t need me, I want her. Fiercely.
Great Deal
