Review of Safe Passage: Book Reviews for Bookish People
Karen Menezes on August 28, 2024Emily runs the 'Book Reviews for Bookish People' blog. She has written a review of Safe Passage, the first book in The Chronicles of Capherayna series.
What I loved about Safe Passage was the mixture of grounded social issues and fantastical sci-fi/fantasy elements that are used to build the narrative. It was as funny in a cheeky way as it was emotional and profound. Menezes doesn't hold back when it comes to discussing war and the aftermath of it. I loved her use of descriptive language, the minute details, and the overall sympathetic tone that the novel takes.
