![]() ![]() And I do need to say in fairness to both author and publisher that, in hindsight, this was likely the wrong book to have read during these times. ![]() But that’s where my happiness and enjoyment of The Monster Baru Cormorant pretty much ended. ![]() I gobbled up the first quarter of this book in a couple of days. And this is all part of an absolutely devastating opening quarter of book. The story starts with failure: failure of courage, failure of combat, failure of death, and who knows how many others-all leading, eventually, back to the secret rebel accountant, Baru. When the publisher sent me through links for both Monster and Tyrant at the start of iso, I thought this was going to be brilliant–the world was burning around us but I had two books I was so excited to read back-to-back during lockdown. I was so excited to read The Monster Baru Cormorant after absolutely loving The Traitor Baru Cormorant, and calling Baru one of the best protagonists in fantasy. ![]()
