A bandit walks into a coffeehouse, and it all goes downhill from there. Guet Imm, a young votary of the Order of the Pure Moon, joins up with an eclectic group of thieves (whether they like it or not) in order to protect a sacred object, and finds herself in a far more complicated situation than she could have ever imagined.
MY REVIEW
The perfect escapist read! One that takes you out of yourself, gives you time for reflection and ended up feeling a lot deeper than I originally thought it would! I expected some action and adventure, and on top of that I got magic, myth, religion and laughs!
When a nun teams up with a group of bandits you really don't know what to expect - and they don't either! Considering it's only a novella as well, the story really involves you as you wander along their trodden path on the road to steal, cause mayhem and end up finding themselves!
It's a weird but really engaging little read - it's full of humour as well which I really loved and didn't expect so much of! Some of the characters - Guet and Tet especially - are fabulous creations and I'd even love to read more about them in their own stories!
★★★★
