devination 's review for:

A Restless Truth by Freya Marske
5.0
adventurous dark funny hopeful inspiring lighthearted mysterious tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

It's a small step behind the previous book in my opinion - but a small step from perfection is still perfect enough for me! The author's notes said that Marske wrote this during covid and wanted something FUN and about travel, and that's absolutely what we got! It's self contained, it's tense, it flows beautifully and Marske has absolutely brilliant prose that somehow is funny, witty, sarcastic, serious and historical yet still easy enough to read for a non-brit. Absolutely loved it! Already have the third one ready!
