Enjoyable, quick read. I had no issue following the stories from the 3 characters. I didn’t appreciate that magic potions were glorified, nor the making and disguising of poisons.
However, in the end the apothecary has a change of heart and stops making and dispensing poisons.
I did find several sentences and paragraphs to record and reflect on.
