ninetalevixen 's review for:
A Bond Undone: The Definitive Edition
by Jin Yong, Gigi Chang
I received an advance copy from St. Martin's Press through a Goodreads giveaway; all opinions are my own and honest.
Oh, I liked this so much more than the first book. I'm not quite sure whether it's because I was already attached to the characters, or I preferred this translator, or the pacing/plot was more interesting in this one, or maybe all of the above. But in any case, this was engaging and exciting, and I'm looking forward to reading the next book.
