Perfect Shadow

A quick read to begin 2019 and to conclude my experience of rereading the Night Angel trilogy by Brent Weeks. I adored book one of the trilogy and fund the rest of the series to be massive disappointments.

This novella was no different. The author tried out a jerkier writing style that skipped between scenes more often and I really found that in this case it reduced my enjoyment of the writing. I have to acknowledge that Weeks' technical writing style usually works very well for me and it's often the content of his books that spoil the experience for me. In this novella, I found too much plot was packed into small nuggets of story without being fully immersive.

I wish it had been a full standalone novel.
