A review by erikars
The Lioness of Morocco by Julia Drosten

1.0

The characters were flat and the plot not terribly well held together. Too much action happened off screen and was just described in retrospect. We hardly got to see the development of the main character Sibylla, and the second half of the book hardly concerned her. The villain of the end was almost comic and utterly predictable. The highlight of the book was the middle section where there is a fairly long set of actually described events which included real character development. When I read that, I was hopefully that the rest had only been brief because the authors were rushing us to the point where Sibylla's story really began. Sadly, I was wrong.
