Publisher's Summary
Short-listed for the 2016 British Fantasy Society Award for Best Novel.
Guns of the Dawn is a pacey, gripping fantasy of war and magic from Arthur C. Clarke Award-winning author Adrian Tchaikovsky.
The first casualty of war is truth....
First, Denland's revolutionaries assassinated their king, launching a wave of bloodshed after generations of peace. Next they clashed with Lascanne, their royalist neighbour, pitching war machines against warlocks in a fiercely fought conflict.
Genteel Emily Marshwic watched as the hostilities stole her family's young men. But then came the call for yet more Lascanne soldiers in a ravaged kingdom with none left to give. Emily must join the ranks of conscripted women and march towards the front lines.
With barely enough training to hold a musket, Emily braves the savage reality of warfare. But she begins to doubt her country's cause, and those doubts become critical. For her choices will determine her own future and that of two nations locked in battle.

It got me good.
I'm a big fan of AT's writing. To be honest, when I first came to understand where this might be going I thought it wasn't really for me.
I am very glad that I set aside my expectations as the story gripped me the characters spoke to me and the narration drew me in all the way.

Beautifully Read, Impossible to stop listening
From start to finish this book is captivating, it had me wishing for longer journey so I could keep listening. It was read beautifully with each accent perfectly articulated and easy to tell characters apart.
The only disappointing thing about this book is that it ended.
