Starred Review: The Traitor Baru Cormorant by Seth Dickinson

Jul 242015
 

Cover for The Traitor Baru Cormorant by Seth Dickinson. A realistic porcelain mask of a feminine mask hits the ground, starting to shatter. Publishers Weekly: Dickinson’s debut, the start of a trilogy set in an impressively well-crafted fantasy world, is assured and impressive. … Readers will share every one of Baru’s strong, suppressed emotions. Dickinson’s worldbuilding is ambitious and his language deviously subtle; both are seductive in their complexity. He combines social engineering, economic trickery, and coldhearted pseudoscientific theories to weave a compelling, utterly surprising narrative that keeps readers guessing until the end.
