Absolutely believe the hype. This is a modern classic.
No, really. This knocked me for six. Like, I knew I’d like it? But I didn’t know it would be my new favourite fantasy novel. By turns devastating, funny, exhilarating, rage-inducing. Beautifully historically researched. I certainly didn’t expect to be gently weeping over how much I love all of these characters. I didn’t expect it to be 90% of what I thought about during the day for the whole stretch of reading time.
God. Trust me. Buy this book.
