Description
Accused by the government of practicing witchcraft, 14-year-old seamstress Grizelda must go into hiding beneath the city to save her life. Problem: the goblins who already live there barely tolerate her presence. The pixies are not to be trusted. And she's tempted to break her hiding for a band of revolutionaries who might end magic persecution once and for all.Tags

Set in an elaborate and fascinating world, this book has a lot to recommend it. The characters are likable, their situations are complex, and the story is overall enjoyable. I will be reading other works by this author.

I liked this book even better than The Confederacy of Heaven, which I liked a great deal. The only downside is that the book is desperately in need of a sequel.

I really enjoyed reading this. I quickly started to care about Grizelda and drawn into the world she lives in.
I'm looking forward to reading the sequel; there just has to be one, still so many questions open.
