This is a solid fantasy book. The addition of the fairytale elements was a fun wink to anyone looking (my personal favorite is the Kingdom Alkebu), and a fresh take on the typical fairytales turned fantasy realm. I was bit worried with the multiple character POVs, but it was perfectly balanced and they truly all added to the story.
My only note is that the pacing is a bit uneven. The plot seems to rush and then crawl and rush and crawl, which is to me a typical problem in books with heists - how much planning should you see etc. I half debate if the book would have been better with starting with the commission of the 2nd heist and the rest is feathered in via backstory and flashbacks.
I think that there is great room for this to grow into a fun series and I am excited to see the new directions the author will take.
