A review by ameserole
The Beggar King by Oliver Pötzsch

3.0

Okay, so I created a reading crime because I read the third book of this series WAY before I even read the second book. WHY? Well, for a certain reading challenge this book was called for me to read. So being me.. I read it without hesitation or regrets.

The Beggar King was a pretty good addition to this series. Now it's been a while since I've read the first book and fell in love with the character .. so unfortunately for me, this book started off slow but that's mostly my fault. However, once I got past all of the trying to remember what happened I actually got hooked pretty quickly on to the story and the characters throughout the book.

The bad guy in this book is a terrible and yet lovable bad guy. WHY? Well cause when a character is that good at what they are doing you just sort of fall in love. But then there's Magdalena who was kind of a toss up for me in this book because I'm pretty sure that I really liked her in the first book but in this book I was kind of flip-flopping my decision on her. Then there's Simon, who I sort of liked but not really because he just annoyed me at times.

Other than that, I liked the book. The characters were kind of like meh to me for the most part. I would totally reread this after I finally read the second book though and hopefully it will all make a ton of more sense to me and my opinion on everyone will change for the better.
