2020 book 88

Martha Wells' The Element of Fire
I’m checking out another of Wells' earlier series; this one is more in the mode of traditional fantasy, set in a world that is basically 1800s Europe, focusing on the captain of the queen's guard, the queen's half-fairy step-daughter, political machinations, magical machinations, etc. It was perfectly satisfying,  though not as /interesting/ as some of Wells' other works. Still, I need escapist diversion and she is good at that. B+.
