The City of Brass

3.5 starsThis book reminded me so much of [b:The Thief 448873 The Thief (The Queen's Thief, #1) Megan Whalen Turner https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1427740839l/448873.SY75.jpg 1069505] by Megan Whalen Turner. It seemed a simple setup for what had the potential to be a wonderful world filled with political intrigue. However, I had doubts that any of the sequels could be as good as the [b:The Queen of Attolia 40158 The Queen of Attolia (The Queen's Thief, #2) Megan Whalen Turner https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1293505506l/40158.SX50.jpg 1124161].
