meshell 's review for:

A Drop of Corruption by Robert Jackson Bennett
5.0

Another brilliant book in the Ana and Din Mystery series from Robert Jackson Bennett. If you liked the first one, you will love this one too - there is more character exposition, and another great mystery unravelled by the brilliant Ana, with meaningful help from Din. This book spent less time building up the world than the first one, as you might expect, but still added more details to make for a richer reading experience. 

I felt like I had figured out the mystery a bit early, but it didn't take away from my enjoyment of the work (because I wanted to see how it would all be revealed and way.) 

Din was a bit more romanticially inclined this round, with some potentially silly outcomes, that I thought were quite well executed. 

Robert Jackson Bennett is going to continue to be a regular must buy authour - if you like his other books, this one will likely appeal. Similar writing style, each with a completely different universe to explore. 

Thank you to netgalley and the publisher for the ARC, my review is my own. I also bought myself a copy.
