Poor Chandresh...

Isobel really gets the shaft in this story.

Poppet and Widget are probably the best characters in this. Imagine never knowing anything other than traveling about in a magical circus.

I can't help but really dig Tsukiko's mystique.

Those too close to the circus's inner workings are driven mad by its impossibilities...

I love the ice sculpture tent. That one sounds the most enchanting.

It feels like this story just drifts along. I'm not really pulled by it. No stakes.

I like how Prospero gets halfway disembodied. Seems fitting.

A circus full of actual magic that no one notices because they expect it to all be slight of hand...quite amusing.

Chandresh is my spirit animal.
