The language of power

I wanted to go as far as possible with the published books, and this one got back on the main plot with a lot more to learn, deduce, suspect and guess. The writer said she was working on the following ones, so I can leave the series for a while and be on the lookout for the next one when it's published. All in all, the whole series is really worth the time, even though it's a bit long sometimes, everything matters, all the details build up an very interesting universe, with its people, customs, landscapes and monsters of all types... it's pretty unforgettable.

Actually finished this weeks ago, but have been in denial because it’s the last one but it’s at a cliffhanger! The plot isn’t done!! So close and yet so far!! Still thinking about what makes these books so compelling. It’s the way of thinking about what magic is, absolutely. But it’s also about what community is and what knowledge is and why curiosity is important. Grateful to the friend who recommended these and said to dive in without reading anything about them first.

I really enjoyed this. The slow-burn reveal of the over-arching plot of the whole series is handled so so well.

Each of the Steerswoman books are great, individually, but taken together it's one of my favourite series I have read. I'm not going to give a summary of the story, because I don't want anything I write to count as a spoiler for earlier books. But it's a lot of fun, probably my favourite so far. Apparently books five and six are in the works. I can't wait.

Fabulous! Couldn't put it down and now it's 2am

Another strong entry in the Steerswoman series. Unfortunately and frustratingly the last. I have some ideas about what's going on but it's still very sad to not having more to read about Rowan.
