This first book in a fantasy trilogy featuring mages, gods, mercenaries, regicide, blackmail, betrayal, and epic battles more than lives up to its title. French Revolution with wizards indeed. It‘s a fast-paced story told from multiple POVs (easy to distinguish) which starts fast & only occasionally gets bogged down in lengthy descriptions. Interesting magic system, great characters, entertaining story. I enjoyed this one more than I expected to.
