Wow .... just finished this book. Not really what I was expecting - ok I could see there the story was going but I have to say I did not expect the dark places that Nalo went to......

Read Black Giril in the RIng first to get a handle on her idioms but again wow....powerful storytelling. She projects a future descended from various cultures where criminals are exiled to a 'neighbor' place where the things of folklore - not western folklore - have real counterparts.....but not the way it sounds. Really compelling world building...aliens and real characters....its a shame that we will not see Tan Tan the Robber Queen again... till we re read the book
