\"In<\/a>Lady Trent continues her memoirs.<\/p>\n

Because this volume of my memoirs concerns itself with my research in Akhia, it will of necessity say more than a little about the mating habits of dragons and other creatures. Those whose sensibilities are too delicate to endure such frankness might well be advised to have a more stout-hearted friend read them a carefully expurgated version.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

One of our favorite things about this volume is that Isabella’s brother, Andrew, is around.<\/p>\n

There are eunuchs here, did you know that? Mostly in the government. I swear that half the ministers I\u2019ve met are missing their bollocks.\u201d <\/p>\n

The army clearly had been a wonderful influence on my brother\u2019s manners.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

One of the things I adore is how outright feminist this series is, giving her space to rail about problems.<\/p>\n

\u201cAh, yes,\u201d I said ironically. \u201cI have made myself exceptional. It is a wonderful game, is it not? Because I am exceptional, anything I achieve does not reflect on my sex, for of course I am not like them. Strange, though, how that division seems to vanish when we are speaking instead of my shortcomings. Then I am a woman, like any other.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
