I loved loved loved this book! I love the way T. Kingfisher writes, and I think her characters are so fun. The dialogue is spectacular, and the voice actor for this audiobook is a new favorite of mine. I loved how mysterious, adventurous, and often wholesome this story was! I thoroughly enjoyed it, and I’m looking forward to reading the next one.

This was cute and quick read. There were some parts that were slow for me. Overall, I would recommend and I enjoyed reading it.

This 2nd book in the Saint of Steel series has a lot more action than "Paladin's Grace."  However, the story is on repeat with the love interests both being flawed and repeating the same "(s)he loves me, (s)he loves me not" romance.
Themes were interesting as always in T.Kingfisher's books: loss of faith, what is faith, friendship, consent, love, and more.

Probably my favorite book in the trilogy. Love the big women appreciation. We get the conclusion of the leftover mystery from the first book. Gets into some cool horror stuff.
