    • 4/5
      second in a trilogy. fascinating world, with overtones of both the Indian subcontinent, and steampunk without the steam. and fascinating many-layered characters too.
    • 4/5
      Brisk moving fantasy in an eastern milieu. Though I had mostly forgotten the first book of this series, I had almost no trouble following the action or characters - this time I very much liked the scenes with the raja Himadra, and Gage finds some very interesting company.
