The end of that chapter, in particular, with the appearance of Tash and the stand off with the Queen of the Mountains was terrific. There's a great sense of time and place and gritty realism in the chapter, from the moment Jill walks into the kennels to when she wakes Susan. The foods and smells, the textures, Jill's hair and the sword in her hand, the ovens of the pub, the chalkboards, the friezes in the kennels. The part with the Faun was so sad too, and for a moment, I thought you were saying that the Faun butcher was selling Talking Beasts.
