The Tengu's Game of Go: Book 4 in the Tale of Shikanoko by Lian Hearn
4.0
3.75 stars
Hearn's writing style is SO dry, but once I got about 20% into the book, I couldn't put it down. I did feel emotionally detached from the characters because of the narrative style. Since this was the 4th book in the series, it was irritating when I couldn't remember who someone was or events from previous volumes, and there were few hints to help me remember. Two hated characters met their deserved ends, and the conclusion of the overall storyline was satisfying.
