cassidychivers 's review for:

The City of Brass by S.A. Chakraborty
5.0

An incredible world to be sucked into.

There are for sure some flaws in this, such as a very slow beginning. I picked this book up three times read the first two chapters and put it down. But once I pushed on I regretted not reading it sooner.

As well I found our main characters Nahri in particular were not as strong MCs as I desired. I found Nahri worse for this as the beginning of the book paints her as a strong female and then she kinda just lets us down. Getting a little love sick and overwhelmed with Davaebad politics.

Other then that I adored this book. The political scheming had me turning pages so fast. If you love a political fantasy with unique world building please pick this up.

You will not regret it.

I am currently on the third one and man everyone has been wronged so many times who's side do you take !!!!!
