Parfi of Roundwood is back, and his critics are saying that this one might even be... good? Shocking, I know. The fourth in Steven Brust's Viscount of Adrilankha series provides more points of connection with the Vlad Taltos series through a take-off of the Count of Monte Cristo that plays off in an extended fashion to account for Dragaeran lifespans. The story plays off through multiple alternating viewpoints and switches deftly between them, and the story gives more agency and development to some characters than Dumas's original did.
