PositivePaste\"It’s these stories of inner and inter-relational conflict that give a depth to an otherwise original and gripping story of an alien world ... Anders... has given us an original protagonist in the awkward and open Sophie ... The City in the Middle of the Night may be set light-years away, but it’s likely to hit too close to home.\

RavePasteNo series since George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire has quite captured both palace intrigue and the way that tribal infighting and war hurt the vulnerable the most ... It’s not a simple tale of good versus evil, but a complex web of characters believing they’re making the best choices to serve their people. Religion, family dynamics, class politics, friendships and romance all play a part and are wrapped up in unique magical world that Chakraborty brilliantly brings to life.
