Description:
Quote:Nebula Award-winning author Kelly Robson returns with a charming historical fantasy romp featuring a flirtatious scribe, some irritable fairies, and a precarious parliament. Lana Baker is Aldgate's finest scribe, with a sharp pen and an even sharper wit. Gregarious, charming, and ever so eager to please, she agrees to deliver a message for another lovely scribe in exchange for kisses, only to be shipped off to the Low Parliament by a temperamental fairy. As Lana transcribes the endless circular arguments of Parliament, the debatesgrow tenser and more desperate. Due to long-standing tradition, a hungvote will cause Parliament to flood and a return to endless war. Lana must rely on an unlikely pair of comrades-Bugbite, the curmudgeonly fairy taskmaster,and Eloquentia, the bewitching human deputy-if she's to save humanity andlive to flirt another day, come hell or high water.
