Set in the Italian-inspired world of Ombrazia, Seven Faceless Saints follows the story of Rossana Lacertosa and Damian Venturi as they team up to solve a string of murders in their corrupt city. While the novel presents an intriguing plot, the characters and world-building lack depth, which might leave the reader wanting more. Despite this, Roz, a disciple of Patience, adds a spark of interest to the tale, which kept me engaged until the 100th page. After that it fell too flat for me to continue. However, the themes of power, corruption, and sacrifice adds complexity to the story, making it worth reading for those who enjoy a blend of murder mystery and Italian-style storytelling. Just don’t expect too much.
