This is such a great concept, and so well executed. It's incredibly sad--anyone looking for a fun sex-magic-fueled romp may be disappointed--but I liked the moral ambivalence and the aching sorrow at the core of this novel. I could I have done with a ...more |

“Flog them, hang them, drown them like rats. It won’t change the facts: we are the ones who poured our sweat and souls into your looms. We have rights to expect a little loyalty.”

“We were crushed’ said Judith; ‘for lack of resolution more than lack of numbers. A strike is nothing if a worker may pledge herself to it today and return to the factory
tomorrow. So we gather here; tonight, to unite and entwine our fate.”

“All magic is mastery and command, isn't it? You have to have a claim to something before you can cast spells over it, even your own self.”
