The Far Pavilions by M.M. Kaye

5.0

Probably a 4.5 but rounding up because of how gripping this was. I should be asleep right now but I absolutely could not put it down. The very definition of an "epic," with seriously masterful storytelling. Also, so much interesting information about India and Afghanistan - aka my most favorite type of historical fiction, where you're enjoying an excellent story and also learning about history. Would recommend to anyone willing to read a FAT book, she's a chonk. I'm a huge fan.
