The premise of this book is really splendid-Memorable concept: pirate-y - mafia - Venice, Italy vibes. I really enjoyed the dry humor and wit of the dialogue. Towards the end it really felt like a comedy action movie with lots of blood. Sadly it lagged a bit for me in the middle but it's very long so maybe that's to be expected.
