adventurous funny lighthearted fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Plot
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated

 Look, I’m not saying that this book is bad or unenjoyable. I'm just pointing out that when an English author writes a comedic novel set in a fictional kingdom clearly based on a number of former English colonies, things get dicey fast.
