A review by guenhwyvar
The Paladin Caper by Patrick Weekes
5.0
I found the third book in the Rogues of the Republic series was quite a bit more satisfying than the second. Between the deeper character development and the twistier plot twists, I found the whole experience to be more enjoyable than the second book and back on par with my enjoyment of the first book in the series.
I won't say that the plot was completely unpredictable, but I found it far less predictable than the second book. There were a few surprises I didn't expect and a few things that I expected that wound up being incorrect. All in all it made for a pleasant series of twists and turns mixed with enough confirmations of my own suspicions and predictions to be a thoroughly entertaining ride.
I continue to love the badass female leads in this series along with the heavy sprinkling of satire addressing everything from gender stereotypes to racism to classism. It would be satisfying note to end on, should Patrick Weekes choose to end the series here. However, if he chooses to add another tome to list I will certainly be happy to pick it up.
The Rogues of the Republic series does not disappoint as a whole and The Paladin Caper is an excellent finish to this particular story arc. Looking forward to reading more from Weekes in the future.
