A review by theteenidol
Gotham: Dawn of Darkness by Jason Starr

4.0

I enjoyed all the Easter eggs, nods to the comics, and cameos from the characters on the show. However, I feel like this book would work better purely as a mystery/crime novel set outside the Gotham universe.

The characters were well written and sounded like the would in the show, but some of the dialogue seemed forced and repetitive. Some of the subplots get resolved with little to no consequence to the greater plot of the novel.

With that said, it was a fun read. My first couple sessions I read a few small chunks, but when I started to get into the heart of the book I couldn't put it down.
