review 1: Without giving anything away, the characters are fairly well developed, as is the story and setting. Enjoyable overall, and the drawings for each chapter add a lot of charm to the piece. The worst part is that I found the plot predictable at certain points, which I don't love. It was a fun read, not my favorite honestly, and that combined with the predictable, cyclical plot caused it to lose a star. I would recommend it though.
review 2: Putting my one qualm about this book aside, I greatly enjoyed it! Incredibly fun and full of adventure, history, and atmosphere. Even now the details are memorable, weeks after finishing. Loved the chapter illustrations, too! Okay, my one qualm: this story wades into the dangerous territory of female protagonists who are "s... moreo special and sexy because they do as well as men in a man's world." You know the trope I'm talking about. The protag's closest adversaries and confidants are all Super Interesting Men, save for a single woman who is supposed to be her BFF but whose character development leaves me wishing for more dimension. less
