KJ Parker hits it out of the park once again. Love this man's writing, his conflicted characters, and everything he does.
Feels like a fantasy version of Australian Independence (although I don't know if this is how Australian Independence went). Noble vs commoner conflicts, and a really screwed up family of exiled nobles that act like nobles but are just douchey (to put it lightly) farmers with too much ego for their britches.
Disclaimer: I don't do stars, but I do contribute to the system of star inflation because they don't mean anything anyways
