The City of Brass by S.A. Chakraborty

slow-paced

4.0

This is a slightly dense fantasy novel set in a Middle Eastern inspired historical ish setting. There are three central characters that are revolved around this novel but a boatload of side characters as well. The action and suspense were greatly written which continued to keep me reading. The world building was easy enough to understand but I could have used a glossary to help as well because sometimes names or situations would blend too much to keep track. If you are someone who is used to high fantasy with some subplots sprinkled in mixed with interconnected characters, you would enjoy this. If you are a fantasy newbie, this might need to wait until you can get a pen and paper to keep a record of who is who and how everyone is connected.
