PRK could write about a blade of grass in a field and I would eat it up.
I hadn't heard anything about this case (unlike Say Nothing and Empire of Pain where I was aware of both subjects to an extent), but it was just as interesting and compelling as something I was already invested in. His writing has such a narrative flow whilst also being pertinent and compassionate to the subject.

This was a great follow up to the first book in the series - such a twisty plot with a satisfying ending. The setting of Cumbia and a little of Newcastle was fantastic and liked the little Northern-isms throughout the story. I love the growing friendship between Poe and Bradshaw and need more of this in future books. Onto the next!

YES!! Absolutely yes, THIS was the book I needed to kick me out of my fantasy reading slump. It was just so good! Yes there was a couple of tropes shoved in like it's just expected, but it was original and brutal and exciting and I loved it. I did figure out who was behind things, but I still liked the reveal and how our gal took it all down. Try and stop me from reading the next book ASAP!

Wicked Women
This definitely one of the most consistently good series I've ever read - to still be writing bangers at book 23 is quite the achievement.
That said, this one didn't quite live up to the greats of the series. The curse and witchcraft element was a unique way to go and I didn't see the ending coming which is always a win for a thriller.

Fantastic as always! Dan Jones is easily my favourite author of historical non-fiction.
I've read plenty about the Plantagenets and Tudors but less about the earlier monarchs, so this was very interesting to get a deep dive into Henry V's early life and later his reign.
As usual Dan Jones packs the book full of facts and information without weighing it down and making it tedious, he has a great narrative flow which always makes his books enjoyable.
