Ana and Din are two of the best literary characters to come out of modern sci-fi/fantasy in a long time. When there are strange deaths (as usual) they’re on the case. However this time they’re close to Din’s home town and he has to figuratively and literally face his past. What Ana thinks will be a budding case also ends up dragging more of her past to light. We get more of the old gods and lie around this world.
What you can always get from RJB is not just a great story but a thoughtful commentary on the world. Dueling families from interdependent agricultural trades reflect our own modern agricultural space and the impacts and sustainability moving forward.
Mystery, murder, a sprouting virus that can turn you basically into a zombie, social commentary, and a bit of romance. What more can you ask for.
