( ) *I received a free copy from a Goodreads giveaway Race the Sands was a fun, exciting desert fantasy filled with strong female characters. Rich world- building, particularly the political/ religious systems gave the book a lot of depth. It was also nice to read a fantasy with little to no romance (just some light flirtation). aucune critique | ajouter une critique
