5.0

Second installment in the Dark Star trilogy. Pretty sure James can’t write anything I am not challenged by/don’t enjoy. 

A very different perspective than Black Leopard, Red Wolf but in a way that serves the overarching narrative. Challenging (as all James novels are, really), but in a totally satisfying way.
