Told in 3 parts.
First is Vlad’s pov from when he was still with Jhereg.
Second is many different povs with Vlad not on stage. It occurs when he’s on the run.
Third is later still and in narration style of Phoenix Guards which works well and is entertaining in the short term, but it was beyond exhausting and annoying after two chapters. That section consisted of six chapters :(

Story was entertaining overall, but it felt like a collection of novellas rather than a book.
