i’ve really missed robin hobb’s writing style, it was nice to read something rote related without provoking another depressive episode ❤️

★★★★

In this short (184) page book, Robin Hobb masterfully tells a dark, emotionally engaging story of love, lies, betrayal, and loss which establishes the reason why Wit magic was hated. It's just brilliant. If this is a glimpse of the author's storytelling style, then I am sold for the entire Realms of the Elderlings series and her other books.
