The research that went into this book is amazing, and it's well worth a read just to land yourself in a time and place in history that isn't often described.
I loved exploring the Roman ruins of London, and I had been thinking about what happened to them after playing Assassin's Creed Valhalla so it was a treat to explore them with the characters.
The key women of the book are badass, their journey is difficult as they forge forward with their taboo abilities, all the while caught between their tradition and the cultures they live in, and a fear of ghosts - and enemies.
The story didn't pull me in as much as the history did.
