There are three absolutes in Mairi Wallace's world:
- The Mages rule every city in Scotland with terrible, violent authority.
- It is not physically possible for any woman to wield magic.
- Mairi does not have a voice.
She is about to learn that none of these things have to be true.
From twisted wynds and tartan shops to a dangerous daemon and malevolent ravens, the future of a tattered nation might lie with one solitary woman.

I really enjoyed it

This was a glacially slow building mystery that gave few answers and little action until the last thirty minutes and setup for the next book. It felt like medieval fantasy until a single mention about needing to get indoors to safety before the electricity went out. I liked the Sleepy Hollow vibe and yearned for better descriptions of the world, characters, and plot.
Sadly, instead of leaning into uniquely dark, this appears to be queueing up a fairly standard fantasy uprising with the tired romance between the dangerous daemon (whose abs get more description than any demonic magic or features) and the girl who amassed power/knowledge far too easily for me to take her seriously. Perhaps on sale I’d be willing to finish the trilogy.
More questions than answers in this slow open

It’s an interesting concept but there’s too much obsession and way too much anger from the main character for my liking.
The narrator does a good job but her accent is so strong that at times I’ve had difficulty understanding what she is saying.
Good narrator, story is a bit angry

Maybe the author should have hummed the words
