Ross drapes a tense political thriller in a trench coat of dark fantasy. Readers should expect the unexpected." –Kirkus Reviews"I'm not prone to bouts of effusiveness but I couldn't gush enough about Kat Ross's books, I enjoy them so much. This one has a Slavic feel, which was really interesting to me, and I loved the rainy city of Novostopol (also the map illustration is gorgeous). Added to the unique setting and fantasy elements are Ross's usual mix of great characters, a twisty-turny plot, romance and a touch of humour. I already can't wait for Book 2!" –Evelyn, Goodreads reviewer"I loved the setting, which is technologically advanced yet progress is suppressed - it gave it a 1930's noir feel. I'd compare it favourably to the 'tsarpunk' of the Grishaverse. Relatable characters and fast-paced and well-thought-out action drive this story along and have me eagerly awaiting the sequel." –A. Adler, Goodreads"A masterpiece of magical fantasy which mixes its unique concepts into the darkest psychology of the human mind and its most base physical desires and emotions. Action, excitement, and darkness in all the right places. An unmissable and original read." –K.C.
