Privilege of the Sword: *squee* I really want to read this because of how much I liked Swordspoint, but I haven't been able to find it in any nearby bookstore. That's the problem with locating any of Kushner's books around here. =_=.

How is the tone? More low-key (relatively speaking) like Swordspoint, or more epic like The Fall of the Kings? Cos I wasn't much fond of the latter.

It's much more like Swordspoint than like Fall of the King, but the main character being a 15 years old girl, it's got its own idiosyncracies.

Good luck for hunting it :)

You need to read the rest of the Temeraire books^_~ Great fun. I reviewed them a while back.

I do! And yes, i remember, that's why I picked it up. (Latest book I bought was that Melusine one)
