Praise for this book
"A rich and atmospheric lacework of worldbuilding, politics and magic--and of one woman's journey to find her place in the wake of a revolution. Mesmerising, relentless and sharp." - Aliette de Bodard
"[This] is an absolute gem of a story, a peek into a fascinating, fully realized world that manages to explore issues of power, consent, class and destiny before turning over some of fantasy's tropes completely on their head. I loved it." - S A Chakraborty
"I would follow [Fellion] anywhere... I highly recommend this. I stayed up way too late finishing it and am still thinking about it a week later." - Mary Robinette Kowal
