Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 18
In an opulent mansion at the borders of the Empire, an Imperial officer lies dead - killed when a tree spontaneously erupted from his body. Even here, where contagions abound and the blood of the Leviathans works strange magical changes, it's a death at once terrifying and impossible. Called in to solve the crime is Ana Dolabra, an investigator whose reputation for brilliance is matched only by her eccentricity. At her side is her new assistant, Dinios Kol, an engraver, magically altered to possess a perfect memory.

Unique, immersive and engaging...a must read
Revisado: 04-11-25
I can't decide whether the narration or the writing deserves most praise.
Can't remember the last time I found a book this interesting. Totally engaging and entertaining. A truly outstanding story. Characterisation is immaculate.
...this is all enhanced by the most amazing narration. The excellent interpretation lifts this unique world off the page. The world is totally immersive but I don't feel like I heard one line of exposition. The pacing is perfect.
If you're thinking about this, go for it. You won't regret it. I'm off to buy the hard copy as well.
A great piece of work.
