One Word Kill by Mark Lawrence
1.0
This is a shame - I loved Mark Lawrence’s Red Sister, but I couldn’t finish this.
This is a time travel story that falls into the awful cliche of “we have to do this thing, because this is the thing I remember us doing” but to add a twist of jeopardy: “I didn’t know that was going to happen because that’s the one thing I hadn’t been told would happen”.
Made it halfway - but I still have no idea what the “thing” is that they’re trying to achieve, and therefore why I should care.
