Age of Victoria doesn't lean as hard into the Victorian era setting as I'd like but it's still good fun. The adventuring party is three very aggressive ladies and one man who must adapt to his role as a softboy healer. Everyone adapts to the GameLit Apocolypse really fast and while the “system” is influencing that change in personality and behavior, I wanted more of that inner conflict and societal conflict. Late in the book revisits those themes.
There is tons of fighting in this book, mostly against goblins. If you like a level grind this may be the book for you.
Content warnings: Brief scene of child abuse and an unpleasant scene involving a cat. Non-gory injuries and violence.
