Critics Review
A Restless Truth is a delectable sapphic fantasy-adventure on the high seas. Maud and Violet stole my heart from page one. Never has the term ‘to ship’ been more appropriate – Megan Bannen, author of The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy
Jaw-droppingly fantastic. Anyone who’s ever hoped that the Miss Phryne Fisher Mysteries had a bit more magic and a lot more sex is going to adore this book, which doesn’t skimp on either. Add to that fantastic, thoroughly captivating characters, a deeply engaging story and divinely lyrical prose. In a word: delightful – Jenn Lyons, author of The Ruin of Kings
The perfect book if you’re looking for oceanbound queer shenanigans, suspense in a coherently magical world, or opulent historical fiction! – Malka Older, author of The Mimicking of Known Successes
A magical world of exquisite refinement, where peril skims beneath manners, interiors bespeak both faultless taste and deadly secrets, and the sexual tension crescendos until it literally makes sparks fly. A dazzling debut – Shelley Parker-Chan, author of She Who Became the Sun,on A Marvellous Light
A breathtaking queer romantic fantasy … Sensual erotic scenes, an intriguing magic system, and a puzzling mystery combine to make this novel a wonder – Publishers Weekly starred review on A Marvellous Light
