A review by cullen_mi
In the Shadows of Men by Robert Jackson Bennett

5.0

Thanks to NetGalley for an ARC.
4.5 stars - A very enjoyable novella. I had no idea what it would be about but I am always interested in reading new things from Bennett.
The atmosphere and characters were both very well constructed and sucked me in; it's easy to consume this in one sitting.
Another reviewer mentioned how this tackles issue of nurture vs nature and dealing with the sins of your predecessors. These elevated it from an enjoyable but 4 star genre-fiction story to my 4.5 star rating.
