angelsbeforeman 's review for:

The Plotters by Un-su Kim
4.0
dark medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Loveable characters: Complicated

such an intriguing premise ... the story is set in seoul and it follows reseng, who works as an assassin for an organisation called the library, led by a man called old raccoon. the title refers to the clients of the assassins, and they do actually call them the plotters. anyway, we basically follow the thrilling events of reseng's life as a killer. i thought he was a very well written character, a good protagonist with an interesting psyche and personality. i also liked bear, who owns a pet cemetery. in general, the characters are super interesting and so is their world. along with that, i thought the writing style was good and the author created a fitting atmosphere for the story. overall, super enjoyable ^^
