thecaptainsquarters 's review for:
Jade City
by Fonda Lee
Ahoy there me mateys! I received this fantasy eARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. So here be me honest musings . . .
Ken Liu recommended this book and when I read the description I just knew I had to read it. His awesome blurb:
“Stylish and action-packed, full of ambitious families and guilt-ridden loves, Jade City is an epic drama reminiscent of the best classic Hong Kong gangster films but takes place in a fantasy metropolis so gritty and well-imagined that you’ll forget you’re reading a book.”
Me thoughts: awesome ideas. awesome characters. made it to 50%. bored. never forgot I was reading a book. sigh.
So lastly . . .
Thank you Orbit Books!
