A review by seeinghowitgoes
An exchange of hostages by Susan R. Matthews

4.0

I read An Exchange of Hostages so many years ago, the writing style is as peculiar as ever but the story is as stark and intriguing as ever. Manipulated by his family, Andrej finds himself caught in training to become a Ship's Inquisitor. A pretty title masking the role of torturer.

It's a difficult topic to write about and Matthews spins it in a way that horrified but kept me fascinated.

I read these novels so long ago that I had to order them from Amazon US and had to wait years before they were available in ebook format!
