The Tainted Cup by Robert Jackson Bennett
adventurous
challenging
mysterious
medium-paced
4.75
A nearly perfect book that is as perfect a mystery story as anything in that genre with the added bonus of a fabulous fantasy world setting.
I am refraining from the full 5.0 for purely personal reasons which is that I would have enjoyed more of the Struvos character and the relationship with our main character Din. Perhaps he will be a recurring character.
The ending of the novel leaves more questions than answers as the mystery is technically solved but leaves us with a new adventure for Din and Ana. And in revealing more about her we understand less about her background and motivation.
