People don’t look for a woman in trousers. Men’s clothes, short hair, swagger and socks is all it takes to be a man. It this enough for war?
Oh, and a second pair of socks.”It started as a sudden strange fancy: Polly Perks needed to join the army to find her lost brother. Except that in Borogravia, women aren’t allowed to join the army, or do much of anything interesting, really. A haircut, a change of clothes, and an extra pair of socks later, Polly is now Private Oliver Perks, marching off to war as part of the finest army in the world, joined by a (reformed) vampire with a coffee habit, a lieutenant who is more of a danger to himself than the enemy, and the most legendary sergeant in Borogravia. As the enemy forces are fast approaching, it appears the best man for the job might just be a woman.
