Synopsis:
Two girls use forbidden magic to fly and fight–for their country and for themselves–in this riveting debut that’s part Shadow and Bone, part Code Name Verity.
Seventeen-year-old Revna is a factory worker, manufacturing war machines for the Union of the North. When she’s caught using illegal magic, she fears being branded a traitor and imprisoned. Meanwhile, on the front lines, Linné defied her father, a Union general, and disguised herself as a boy to join the army. They’re both offered a reprieve from punishment if they use their magic in a special women’s military flight unit and undertake terrifying, deadly missions under cover of darkness. Revna and Linné can hardly stand to be in the same cockpit, but if they can’t fly together, and if they can’t find a way to fly well, the enemy’s superior firepower will destroy them–if they don’t destroy each other first.
We Rule the Night is a powerful story about sacrifice, complicated friendships, and survival despite impossible odds.

REVIEW
I received an e-ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
I loved the setting of the book! A world in industrial revolution with dragons, a light hint of magic and the MC was on a wheelchair along with prosthetic legs. Revna and Linne are the exact opposites at first but as the book moves on, and the plot becomes grimmer and grimmer the focus goes on the women who are told that they are not 'enough' yet they manage to overcome their prejudices and turn into heroes.
