A review by monno_moo
Ace of Shades by Amanda Foody
4.0
“People do not play this game to win, my dear. They play this game not to lose.”
One thing I want to get straight about this book. THIS IS NOT SIX OF CROWS. I know that on the book it says "house of the rising son meets six of crows" but the only similarity is the atmoshere that New Reynes has with Ketterdam. Now since that's out of the way. This book is good. I am a sucker for the characters who choose the wrong instead of the right, and I'm even more of a sucker for changing perspectives. And did I mention that this book offers both? well, it does. Enne and Levis character dynamic is one that intrests me so I was sucked in right away. A preppy girl that has no choice but to follow a crime lord? sign me up. I also love how Ennes charater goes through so much development. from barley getting out of her confort zone to diving right into it. My only problem with the world was how the 'talents' worked. I was a little confuzed by it a first, but then later on the book explained it more thank goodness. I still wasn't the biggest fan of thats how the magic worked in the world. concluding this review I give it a thumbs up and an even 4/5 star review. needless to say I can't wait to get my hands on a copy of King Of Fools!
