  1. The Traitor Baru Cormorant

    Seth Dickinson · The Masquerade #1

    Spice 1/5 Darkness 4/5

    Baru wants to destroy the empire that conquered her island, so she joins it as an accountant. Yes, accountant. Colonialism, ledgers and a rebellion she can't afford to care about. The ending is cold enough that some readers never forgave it.
